some projects in the making using the famous "Sepaker" enclosure 🙂
Aleph 3 - being cleaned after many years of good service and going to change the output caps.
Aleph J - in the making
Both Aleph 3 and Aleph J will go into the enclosure - with a selector - to choose the amp to power one. I still love the old Aleph 3. I might consider to put a F5 at one stage as well!
2 Korg B1 pre-amp
and one NOIR

I added a Muses volume control with IR remote to my BA-3 FE. Just drilled a hole and moved the receiver inside the case.
Yep. Works great and brings a more transparent sound than the stepped attenuator I had in there. 😉
My take on Pass HPA-1
Thanks to covid19, working from home, I started to finish some projects I had laying around for some time.
I had these HPA-1 PCBs made and still had a Tentlabs volumecontrol on the shelf so wanted them to combine in a nice enclosure. Also I liked to do something with those nice VU-meters.
It is finished now and I think it looks great 🙂
The VU-meters though doesn't bring you anything besides a good looking frontpanel...
Inside is a 120VA Amplimo transformer, big capacitors with the cap multiplier, the volume control board and a true balanced to unbalanced convertor board and the two HPA-1 PCBs. For the digital part of the volumecontrol I used a Meanwell 230V to 5V 1 Ampere converter, works very well.
Combined it is a headphone amplifier and a nice preamp also.
It is dead quit and sounds very good 🙂
I'm gonna do more with those VU-meters on my power amps also, I like it, my Pass XS preamp even looks a bit dull as seen on the last picture 😉
