DIY Retailers in Singapore

[Mickeman]

Hi,

Anyone knows if there are any good retailers selling DIY parts in Singapore?

With DIY parts I mean electronic components, audio tubes, trasnformers, chssies, kits etc..

Cheers,

Hi,

for all electronic parts of general nature, you have Sim Lim Tower (not to confuse with Sim Lim Square, which has computers and consumer electronics). SLT has a bewildering amalgam of small shops that carry pretty much everything that you could ever wish for, if you could only find it. Beware quality issues as well, at times (cheap knockoffs).

For more specialized "audiophile supply", transformers, tubes etc, there are some shops in Burlignton square shopping center(Bencoolen, opposite Sim Lim *Square).

There are a few isolated shops at People's Park center as well (Chinatown), I have seen one at the basement that carries specialty items, and one forgarden variety parts in the 3rd or 4th floor.

For speaker drivers there is Leda resources; they also have other speaker related parts:

Leda .

Quite a few more exist, mostly specialty importers. There is someone who importd UCD class D modules for instance. There is a small tube amp manufacturer called Zenn Audio, who also has parts for all sorts of other applications. He is in Bedok.

etc etc

And there is an online portal with forums,

Echoloft

For completeness sake, the "regular" HiFi Hi End shopping mall is the Adelphi opposite Funan/Peninsula Plaza.

Welcome to the "club" btw! There is a surprising variety of stuff here, not always easy to find, but it exists. And quite a lot of private audiophile activities, DIY meetings etc.
