Where the red arrow to point is that the plus (+) side?
I would like a confirmation because I make my own black and red cable.
To everyone, remember to mount the heat sink ...

Tibi my package arrived today :D

Yes, exactly, your arrow indicate +8V and is also marked near on J6.
With a multimeter you can easily check that other pin is ground by testing continuity with LA6541 heatsink.
On Shiga MKII LA6541 do not require a heatsink. You do not need to put one as LA6541 will dissipate in the double ground plane we have calculated and designed.

Tibi, I see that ADP151 is missing in some photos. Should it always be used? Thanks.

ADP151-2.5 is optional. The sound get better with ADP151, but will be stable only with ultra low ESR caps >=1uF before and after.
SMD 1206 1uF is only in X7R and will exhibit measurable piezoefect. So, if you mount him, you need to take extra care on pcb vibrations.

Thanks. The ADP151 is included in my kit. Should the ultra-low esr caps be here too? Regards.
 
I always test first the power supply if there are 8 volt comes out and yes I measuring 8 volt
But the diode (MSR860) and the capacitor is way too hot.
Please tell me what piece is defect?

When careful unpacking I noticed that the display falling apart, see picture …
Also the board connector looks defect, where the ribbon cable of the laser comes in, this can never have worked :( see picture …
Tibi please tell me wat to do, must I sent the whole unit back?

Regards,
Rudy

Hi Rudy,

Yes, please send it back. In the mean time I'll ship another unit to you.

Tibi
