Nuuk's active pre for Si T-amp... - Click HERE for Original Thread
ThomasS
Can the active pre run on +/- 13v? (SLA power my SI T-amp and it would be nice to do the same on the pre)

Can the gain be increased to ~6dB? (PLLXO causes some insertion loss in my bi-amp system....)

Thanks,
Thomas

The pre amp is described here:
http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/nuukspot...inclonepre.html

The voltage is specified to 15+ v - but what about 13v....

ThomasS
What's the output impedance of this pre amp?
There is a 100k resistor between output and ground :confused:
is this correct?

I could just build it and see...... BUT I would prefere some gain....

The 100k doesn't harm but would do anything either i think.
13V supply should be OK with possible a little less output level - but still enough to wildly overdrive your GC!
This is a buffer (if I got the right diagram on the site) so no gain, I'm afraid. You really need 6dB gain? How about just turning up the vol control a bit further, or rather turning it less far down?

Correction: The 100k ensures the output floats to gnd if connected to a capacitor-coupled power amp input.

Beat me to it! ;)

ThomasS, you may find that with the buffer in between the volume control and class-T amp that you don't actually need the extra gain! :att'n:

Wow! That was close ;) , almost got caught with a mistake.:D

The passive line level x-over causes quite a bit of attenuation but I'll give it a try :)

Then go active! It's not really difficult. If you want to keep with the Les Sage buffer concept, then try these .

Hardly any more work than the buffers and you have your crossover filters as well! ;)

Jan - yes, lucky to corrected that one. I've seen people shot on this forum for lesser mistakes! :D

Aha! I was wondering what a Phase-Locked Loop Xtal Oscillator had to do with it....
