Finally, an affordable CD Transport: the Shigaclone story - Page 12

Although I didn't try OsCons, they could be considered too.

I see that it seems advisable/neccessary? to use a puck on top of the CD. Are these easily available ?

Thanks Peter. Unfortunately I don't have access to the NOS ERO, so I'll have to use the MKP1837 or perhaps a WIMA or something. I've never really liked the OSCONS, I'd be more likely try to the Elna or Rubycon ZA/ZL first, but the Black Gates are cheap enough for me.

Looks like I'll buy the following once the item arrives, as from what I've gathered from the thread this seems to be the current recommendations:

Digikey:
(1) 300-8441-ND
(1) LM7808CT-ND
(2) MSR860GOS-ND
(1) HM548-ND

Michael Percy:
(1) Caddock MK-132 75.0R
(1) Vishay S102 60.0R
(1) BG STD 1000/25
(1) BG FK 2200/35
(2) BG N 4.7/50
(1) BG N 10/50
(1) BG N 33/16
(1) BG NX 47/6.3

Hopefully I didn't miss anything!

I have had significant problems contacting Mr. Percy.
Hope all is well, but I could not get an order in with him. Had to use Soniccraft and PartsConnexion instead. Both I can talk to on the phone as well. Too bad, he has a good selection of parts.

This is not meant to bash him, just a heads up.

Getting hard to find in the UK as well, I just got one from www.bennettsonline.co.uk Don't know what I'm going to do with it but thought I better get one. If I wait till I understand what to do then it'll be too late

BG N 4.7/50 are no longer available neither from Percy nor Partsconnexion.

Tea-Bag · 4th April 2008, 08:26 PM

Handmade Electronics has those in Silimic II for .25 cents.
Oh yes. They seem to good to deal with as well.
