I might be, when is the cut off date?

 

[Rarkov]

There isn't one yet. They're getting back to me with a quote for 80-100 pieces and we can see if there is a substantial drop in price or not...

Basically - if you're interested - then I will include you in any comms and worry about definite numbers should the time come (and we have enough people).

Also in the North East UK, and I thought I was all by myself!

There's me in Newcastle, Kram is Durham / Newcastle (We're at uni together)...and someone else in Leeds...(That is still the North East in my opinion )

Where are you?

Hi Hi!

I'm in Sunny Billingham, (Cleveland) just down the road from you guys, I've been in to Hi-Fi since 1974 which I guess kind of shows my age! (I started young though, cos of music of course!)

Hi,
Well - it's a bit disappointing but ABL won't accept multiple payments. I'm talking to a company called DAU for a similar deal.

I'll let you know!

I was thinking of trying to get some heatsinks from conrad in australia soon (their prices are very good if you go and have a look). The only problem owuld be the shipping cost. So if this doesn't go well and anyone wants to spill the shipping costs with me then let me know and we can see what happens.

Rarkov, have you checked with all the companies mentioned in that thread : http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=16646 ?

Most of these companies have really good prices.
I don´t wanna disappoint you but the price you mention is rather standard for a single piece.

BTW: Just for comparison : the heatsink I´ve shown in the link cost me 50€ (~36pounds) . 265mm*200mm*75mm ; 0,2 C/W.
I only bought two of them.

Cheers
Jens
