Updated 19th February 2012 at 09:01 AM by dvb-projekt (Project finished)

After reading so much over this amp, i will start a new project for my Hornspeaker

Letīs see if the F5 can play in the same league as my 300B monoīs

Tube Rectifier Comparison with SSHV in between

Posted 16th September 2011 at 12:14 PM by dvb-projekt
Updated 16th September 2011 at 04:38 PM by dvb-projekt

Click the image to open in full size.
Vin= SSHV input / Vout= SSHV output


Because i am on vacation, i had the time to listen to two other tube rectifier i have.

The question, if there are still differences in sound with different tube rectifiers and the SSHV in between, is

YES !!!

Till now i used the Bendix 6101, a very nice sweet and soft sounding rectifier.

After i roll to the SED Winged "C" 5U3C (5U4-G) Black Plate rectifier,



...someone lift a invisible curtain...



Much more precision in the mids and highs and the soundstage open up in all directions.
Jesus, in comparison the Bendix sounds much to soft!

The Mullard GZ37/CV378 Coke Bottle has also the qualities of the 5UC3 Black Plate,
but is a bit softer sounding.

The only disadvantage

Best source for TX2575 Naked Z-Foil Resistor

Posted 28th August 2011 at 07:52 AM by dvb-projekt

All members who want to use the "holy grail" audio resistor,

the TX2575 Naked Z-Foil,

could order it direct from Arbie Lopez at Texas Components.

alopez@texascomponents.com


Thatīs the cheapest way to get it IMO.

They have also great Trimpots with Bulk Metal Foil Technologie.





P.S.: If you send a mail to Arbie, send her regards from me!

TDA1541A DAC Module V3.0

Posted 20th August 2011 at 08:32 AM by dvb-projekt
Updated 4th April 2012 at 07:13 AM by dvb-projekt (Stock status updated)

The Red Baron

aka TDA1541A DAC V3.0


Click the image to open in full size.


The evolution brings the following changes

- Direct shunt voltage inputs with shortest onboard traces
- I2S In-/Outputs with shortest onboard traces
- Upgrades DEM Synchronizer
- Onboard Grounded-Gate MOSFET Current Buffer I/V Stage
(-ecdesigns- MK7 version)
- Compacter design


Still on the module

- Separate GND-Trace for DEM-Synchroinizer
- Master/Slave connectors for parallel DAC module usage
and external I/V Buffer stages e.g.
Tube-I-zator & DDNF Stage
- Groundplane
- no SMD Design

The PCB has the following data:

Material: FR4 - 2mm
Layers: 2
Board size: 125x73 mm

Transformer for Pedja Rogicīs DDNF I/V Stage

Posted 23rd May 2011 at 10:44 AM by dvb-projekt
Updated 23rd June 2011 at 04:12 PM by dvb-projekt

If you would build the DDNF I/V stage with my PSU & Salas Shunt modules,
you could order a custom made transformer at
AE-Europe.

It has the following data:

Primary:

115-0 / 115-0
(for 115V & 230V usage)

Secondary:

24V-0-24V / 2A
24V-0 / 2A
Magnetic Shield

You could order two versions:

- Standard: EI-core € 64,-

- High End: C-core (same size as 30317) € 112,-

Prices are excl. shipping and VAT
Delivery time around 6 weeks after order.
