Finally, an affordable CD Transport: the Shigaclone story

[syklab]

Yes, the radio and tape will work separately.

Tvicol: what is the closing date for putting names down?

I´ll close the list when the PCB design is finished and I´m ready to send boards for production.
I expect this in 2 -3 weeks from now.


Regards,
Tibi

...Use the List in link above rather than Forum ...as tvicol says....saves a lot of space and repetition.....maybe tvicol you could put it in your signature ?...

 

[TheGimp]

I can't get to the link either. I even tried copy and paste into both FF and IE.

 

[iTiberius]

It is in my signature now.

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at docs.google.com.

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

It might be a firewall problem for me at work.

 

[Stixx]

Guess it's your firewall...
Everything opens just fine for me.

My shiga is now pieces, so I need some help.
Can someone measure voltage in Q902 collector (page 2-22) during normal operation - cd play and during ¨lid open¨.

Normal operation should be ~5V
¨lid open¨ should be near to 0V, but I need exact value.

Thanks,
Tibi

 

[apoopoo999]

on the center leg Im getting 4.94v during operation and lid open

 

[woodturner-fran]

Guys,

Today I swapped out my standard mechanism for a 3-ball gripper one. Sound is definitely worse, flabby bass and poorer resolution (jitter anyone!). Any ideas what to check? Anyone else had this experience?

I have a question for those who are messing with the Shigaclone longer than me.
I am using the Shiga with an Audiosector NOS DAC and have quite some problems to get it to lock...
Sometimes it will play music just fine... sometimes I only hear distant hum which makes me think of a grounding issue.
Neither DAC nor Shiga are connected to earth, all my other gear is...

Anyone encountered a similar issue or has some advice?
