"The Wiener" TPA3118 amplifier, group buy #3 + "Wiener Pro" prototypes.

Chuck: I'll probably take payment for just the cards/part kits/etc upfront. Then I'll come up with a shipping quote once I've got everything packed in a box and weighed.

Here's my paper tally:

19 stereo cards x $100 = $1900
2 filter kits x $18 = $36
5 thermal kits x $12 = $60
= stereo card total $1996

14 Pro cards x $185 = $2590
2 filter kits x $45 = $90
= pro total $2680

4 PBTL cards x $105 = $420

2 bare Pro w/uC $20 x 2 = $40
4 bare PBTL w/uC = $12 x 4 = $48
= bare card total $88

$88 + $420 + $2680 + $1996 = $5184 CAD.

Hi, I just realize that paypal charge almost 4% fee for transfer (or around $202 CAD).
I could do better with direct bank wire. Is it possible for you to pm me you bank details for wiring. Thanks.
 
Hi gmarsh and all

Might as well sign myself up, to go along with my TI class "D" amp collection and test it out.
I am fine with you taking as long as necessary to incorporate changes and get the Wiener Pro barnacle free first time around.
You have been at it for months now, as it is 🙂

"Everything is easily/quickly configurable with DIP switches and trimmer pots. Switching frequency, BD/1SPW mode, gain, master/slave mode, PLIMIT threshold and startup/unmute delay".

For the Wiener Fully assembled and tested cards, is their a 'standard' configuration you preset the above values?
 
I usually ship out cards set to 26dB gain, BD modulation, 600KHz switching frequency, PLIMIT maxed out, startup delay set halfway (about 2.5 seconds).

This isn't any kind of recommended setting. Play with the settings and go with whatever suits your needs/ears.
 
Assuming you want filter/mounting kits for both PBTL cards, that'll be:

Stereo+filter+mounting: $100+$18+$12=$130
PBTL+filter+mounting: $105+$25+$12 = $142, x 2 cards = $284
International shipping = $20
Total = $130 + $284 + $20 = $434 CAD.
