Thank you dear P nephew, i am waiting the correct ones to Precision 1
Fine..all them with me.... including the wrong files to Precision 1.. that one with misaligned transistors are here in Brasil...send me the one corrected asap.
My people already building...have informs of 8 folks doing, they will send me pictures and i will post.... Samba country will be playing Precision 1 and HRII.....now music here will be better to listen to.
Will order in brazil to build amplifiers to my friends..and neigthboors..hehehe....nothing to sell.
regards,
Carlos

Just want to say that you can place your groupbuy orders for the P1 now on the dxamp site.
Recent exchange rate slump, seems to be mostly in your favour, as the price dropped quite a bit just through exchange rate, compared to first quote.
We decided to move the protection modules offboard as well and these are available as seperate modules...

Hi Francois, nice to have your support again.
I would appreciate it if you can head over to the site and do the order there, The cost of manufacturing is quite high due to the size of the boards, so this limits the numbers I can afford to order without finance in advance. Boards are offered at cost, with about 6% to cover fetching the stuff from the factory, and charges by the creditcard company.
I am haveing DC protection and slow start PCBs made too, picked up some chips for those this afternoon...

Hi!
I also just placed an order for a stereo set of boards, including the PSU and protection modules. I've been lurking on this board for awhile, biding my time while I completed other projects (diy speakers, diy DAC, diy passive preamp). But having finished those projects and turning my attention to poweramps, I couldn't pass this up. I've been debating between the Symasym and one of Carlos' DX amp designs, but this Precision version looks pretty good. Can Nordic or Carlos give any thoughts as to how this compares?
Thanks!
Ted

It is not very kind to do that to my dear old friend Michael Bittner
I also have cooperated a lot with him into the Symassym....and i like the amplifier a lot...say...the Symassym is a very respectable sound equipment.
I would say that a Symassym board, if amplifiers could think, analise and compare sounds.. i think, Symassym would look at the Precision 1 with a lot of respect.
Sound reproduction is a very complex thing...we cannot be simple just comparing and concluding this one is better and this one not...because depends on your speaker, your room acoustics, also the style of music will behave (result) different from amplifier to amplifier, there are the "jazz players amplifiers" and there are others.... very subjective things.
The amplifier that result better for YOU...cannot be the better for ME.
Also cultural things...for instance, Brasil has a mix of races..we are black and white..we are Europeans and Indians...we have Asiatic people in our blood too (millions of Japanese and Chinese here).... but for my group of race.... typical Yellow people, or ligth brown if you prefere, the black rithm is a need...for me, percursion, rithm and big bass is a need... so.... i have a tendence, i have a preference of rithm and bass...drum and bass sounds.... one amplifier will be better to me if reproduce better the bass and drums.
Japanese loves strings....their evaluation may be different too.... this is something i can write 100 pages...and to avoid that i will end here.
This is all i can say, here, and for a while.

Carlos

Wires around 2 inches long do not create problems, if separated one to the other will
be very good.
I have used this construction, and i could not see any problems into the amplifier performance during listening...i also have tested bigger length to check that and found another exagerated worry we see into many guy's minds.
Also i have tried twisted wires...no problems too.
But...to be carefull, it is better to avoid those things, or, at least, to make those wires as short as possible.
Going to the more standard ways to build amplifiers, we will be in a more safe area....no really needed to accept risks.

Carlos

Regarding heatsinks:
Quite a few orders are comming form Australia.
You can get your sinks from Conrad Heatsinks.
The model recommended is the MF30-1F--75 for AUD28.94.
It is flanged so you will need no extra angle stock.
Dimensions
Height is 7.5cm.

Matched transistors are always very good.
But if you cannot....just match the differential and go ahead.
Accept that something may be lost into quality and go ahead.
This amplifier has a lot of room to have those mismatched..sounds so good that unit, that even loosing some, will continue to sound excelent.

Good idea, when new into the area, to read entire forum
As there are all informations printed into threads.
In special the Dx amplifier thread.
Those informations and hundreds of others will be found there...including the differential.
To build without read those informs...even beeing very lucky you will have problems.
those amplifiers runs fine with newbie that use to read.
the ones that do not use to read will see smoke!... and will listen pops!, táhcs!...Puft! and pow!

Dx Precision is a "senior" amplifier.
The thunderstorm sound will not sound a mile away.
The thunder will enter your home!
Attention, this is not an amplifier to be built, or used, by non experienced people.
Attention: 64 plus 64 volts, even DC, can kill you!
the amplifier is not good to global warming.... full power, into 4 ohms, it will produce a lot of heat!
Do you have speaker repair shops in your country?
Do they repair a big speaker alike that by only 10 bucks?
This guy, into the image, loves deeply young folks building the Precision 1...ahahahaha...money to repair speakers will enter his pocket..... see his smile
Saying welcome to YOU!

Dx Precision 1 can beat all the best brands of my country
And i am beeing very humble and kind not to say about other countries too.
I will let YOU to say that.
Will be waiting for that...smilling with confidence that i will listen that.

Carlos
