I'm wondering if anyone has seen the kit that is offered @www.armoniahifi.com/
Ffor the people that would like to build a player with the cdpro-2 but aren't able to or have the know how to build their own power supply.The dac that they supply looks usable also.
Could Peter or someone with more knowlege than I have a look and let me know?
regards
Craig

It's alive
I just (sort of) finished my second version of CD-Pro2 player. It seems like it is better than a previous one and I will be doing some further mods: removing onboard DAC and installing TDA1543 with passive output stage. The power will come from 12 V battery, direct I2S connection. I also want to do some mods to the board, is the schematic available?
This is Wadia transformer, made by Plitron

The transport looks great - but the power supply reminds me that you're human!
Is that BrianGT's LCD control board? I'm doing one too, but based on an optical encoder...I try and use one in every project I do! I am not keen on the offerings that came with the CD-PRO.
Well done - how will it be finished?

I will buid a separate PS enclosure as soon as I figure if anything else need to be taken care off. I'm taking supply to 5V display regulator off 9V used for transport. It sounds well and I don't think I will need additional raw supply here.
Still don't know how to finish transport, I like the look of copper, but probably use aluminum over all the panels.
I'm not so sure about this display, it's hard to read from a far. Red dot matrix (Levinson style) would be much nicer.
Overall performance is very good. This player has much more separation and weight than my previous one. Seems like a good concept.

They do an equivilent display in red...Maybe that /may/ improve visiblity. As for me, my room is too small for that to be a concern. + I rarely look at a CD display once its running.
Peter, why not do something a bit 'radical'. You often do a square / rectangle box, how about something totally different? For instance, I saw a transport the other day (can't remeber which site) that had a cylindrical frame with the transport hung from the top...Hard to describe, but looked spot on. How about a kind of high end turntable style?
Just my 2p worth...Keep up the great work - I'm sure it'll be fantastic either way!

Maybe that one ?

Does anyone see any issues with using an OOPic2 to control a CD-Pro2? The command codes seem rather straight forward. It would also make interfacing with an LCD and various buttons very simple. I just would prefer to have my own control logic instead of depending on code someone else wrote. Also I would like to put a digitally controlled volume in the analog stages. With my own uC, I could integrate that function fairly easily. The only concern I can think of right off the top of my head is if the OOPic2 has enough I/O pins to support all those things. Probably going to have to get that OOPic book. Anyone know somewhere to get a good price on EE type books?
Does anyone have any tips on cutting out the hole needed for the cd-pro to fit in?
The person who is making my cabinet -for more then 1 year now!!!- Wants to make a perfect fit , but the copper used is almost 4mm thick, and causes problems with cutting/sawing.
Using a file would not work I think - ? -
If anyone has any idea`s...
