Well i spent the last weekend reading through most of this thread...what a great read...
As alot of you know i like Salas shunts very much, and use V1.0 in my preamp, on my Dcb1, Optivol and even on a fan
I have also nearly completed my Dac project which uses the salas V1.0 shunts on the +5v, -5v, -15v and another +5v for additional digital stuff, plus a HV Salas Shunt on the tube output!!!
I have recently bought a Squeezebox Touch, and was thinking i would like to power it with a Salas shunt. I read that V1.0 is best for high current demands, and since the touch requires 5v 3amp, my idea is to remove the +5v shunt(dvb-projekt pcb board) that is used on my Optivol and modify these to use with the squeezebox touch...would this just be a case of changing the ccs resistor for higher current and then add coax for sense wires? and of course change rectifier diodes for high current versions. or would other modifications be needed?
This would then mean i would be able to P2P a V1.2r for use with the Optivol. Knowing how good V1.0 sounds and thats without remote sensing!!! V1.2r must be amazing
Would someone kindly post a schematic for a 5v 1.2r version for use with optivol.
Thanks
Alon
