GB for Salas Folded Simplistic Phono PCB

[skouliki]

There looks like there is some dirt in places, clean it with a soft dry cloth before you solder. If its sticky, use a drop of Azax Classic on the cloth. Good luck building.

The boards are sparkling clean.🙂 Those are just reflections on the surface when i took the photo.
Quick question: Is 16.6 ohms acceptable for R1x? I have some Holcos H2 33.2ohm 1w and im thinking of paralleling them

 

[Salas]

Yes it is.

 

[skouliki]

Wonderful. 🙂 Thanks Salas

Hi TB.

Please put me on the waitinglist for the PCB and minikit.

Brgds

I did put you on waiting list, FYI.

 

[Tea-Bag]

Some of you will receive the boards already split.
This was to avoid potential conflict of interest with the heatsinks.

Hope all arrives well!

 

[Erlend Sæterdal]

Got mine too but I wonder if I really ordered 1 heatsink and one 10uf Solen and one 330 Solen 😕 I have to check later.

 

[merlin2069er]

Just started putting it together. I got some extra resistors not sure what to do with, and I was short 2x (for the R4x / R2X).

No big whoop.

Got plenty of LEDS. 🙂

This is a SSHV2 full kit you had ordered in the spreadsheet.
If you don't want it, please send it back and I can refund you.

What's the GI point between c8 & c6?

 

[Salas]

What's the GI point between c8 & c6?

Alternative/extra ground spot on the input circuitry local star. Technical queries only in the phono thread please.

Ok but should it not have been 4 heatsinks and 2 sets of Solen then ? I really do not remember. Is the spreadsheet still to see ?

 

[Tea-Bag]

Erlend,
I PM you what I had listed.
I take the spreadsheet offline so I can modify it at will.

 

[Erlend Sæterdal]

Thanks 🙂

Hi Salas and Mike

My boards/Kits arrived this morning safe and well.

Thanks Salas for the years of hard work you put into making this RIAA pre available to us.

Seems like a long time and many posts since 2008.

Mike

The boards and components are superb so thanks again for all of the work put into organising another slick GB.

DCBI and Salas shunts in daily use so I already have many reasons to say thanks.

I have a few Z foils but will need to order a few more.

Looking forward to the build and the listen.

Thanks.

 

[Salas]

You are welcome. I will be happy to see your build in the phono thread at a point.

 

[pchw]

Mike, any spare board left?

Thanks!!

My first group buy

What a great parcel to receive in the mail, after a lousy day at work, you made my day Salas and Mike. This will be my first GB build and I can't wait get started. What a great community to be part of, thank you all.

Sincerely

Mike C

 

[Salas]

First PCB build shown in the phono thread came from Minnesota yesterday, lets see if amongst early works there will be an antipodean one too then. Good luck.

Sixteen days and counting.I'm like a kid waiting for christmas 😀

 

[Erlend Sæterdal]

So what 16 days is nothing compared with 23 days I have waited for transformers from K&K Audio. Once I waited 40 days for a packet from Partconnexion.
