[RKH]

Some one deleted my name/request...

RKH is in for two. I'll not tread on the editing process. It seems either I don't know how to do it or I edited the list on top of someone else.

Anyway, I would like to be in for two boards please.

Do the boards come with control,dispaly and remote controller
If not, that would be a problem for those not owning a Shigaclone now

Welcome to the diyaudio forums Collin This thread is immensely long, but you can find a condensed description of the basic mods and the "classic" Shigaclone power supply in this thread by Peter Daniel:
The CD Transport

@ syklab, Styxx - There are compatible CD mechanisms that do not require a puck (they use a 3-ball laptop-style CD mounting):
SANYO LASER LENS SF-P101N DA11B3VF (16P) W/MECHANISM SFP101N | eBay
This mechanism is also considered to sound better than the boombox one.

Of the different custom pucks tested by forumers so far, my understanding is that the best sounding were the ones turned from hardwood (ebony), not aluminium. Admittedly, they were also the most expensive ones... I don't think anyone compared the custom pucks with the 3-ball mech though.
Here is (more or less) the start of the big puck discussion:

Also, Peter posted a drawing of puck dimensions here:

There will be three boards:
1. asp&dsp board
2. display & controll board
3. power supply board

For IR remote you can use a universal one.
I'll try to provide also hard to find components like LA6541, LA9242, LC78601 and maybe SF-P101N-16P CD mechanism.

Tibi,

I've scrolled back some 20 pages but must have overlooked the price. What is it to the US?

Thanks.

The price will be available when the project is ready for production, till then you can express your interest without any obligations.

Thank you Tibi, in that case I am interested in one and possibly two.
