Ultimate 4U 500mm Chassis - Who is interested?

[gary s]

Ok, thanks Dennis - now the penny has dropped, so he probably gets all the dinged and dented chassis that don't pass PL QA - excuse the pun.😉

Guess what?
I took up your advice. Got a job in real estate.

Do you know anyone that wants to sell a house?

Hahahaha

Any minute now Papa is gonna put his name down.

Papa
When I come to America I promise to bring you a new jar of Vegemite to replace the one that Zen Mod disposed of.

I think Mr Pass might have other problems on his mind right now with the newly announced California lock down. Basically from what I see on the news here is that people in most of that state must stay home for the next 3 weeks. That probably means no PL production at the factory now till the new year at the earliest. He is probably dealing with all sorts of problems that might cause.

Hope California doesn't do anything crazy like Victoria. That sent the whole state batshit crazy.

Glad it's bloody over.

Hi pico - what are we expecting each of the (two) heatsinks in one of these macho chasssis to dissipate ? or at least do we know the heatsink ratings for this chassis (degrees c / watt )

 

[2 picoDumbs]

Depends on, what you're happy accepting for temp rise above ambient.

Easily 150 W per channel.

 

[kasey197]

ok then add me for one - i have a few more channels of a push-pull 2K77B SIT amp to build and this will give us a nice home for them.

so +1 for me and thanks for the work on this mate!

Legends everywhere.

Good work.

Now you are up to 32 chassis if my maths are correct.

I just checked google.
It looks like it's approaching 30,000 cases a day.
Shiiiiiieeeeet

 

[gary s]

Yes, it is not good at all for the people there.

Small update for our aussie friends: we have found another shipper. It's EMS.

It's cheaper but also slower, they said they should be able to deliver stuff to Australia in about 2-3 business weeks depending on the area

 

[gary s]

That is good news Gianluca, thanks for the update. The longer ship time is no problem to me as these chassis are for long term projects into next year for me.

Excellent work on that.

Bloody champion.

 

[sampsonite]

Is it still possible to participate? If so, I would like to acquire one chassis.

 

[gary s]

Yes, I am sure pico will add you to the growing list. Ordering will be in the new year now, so plenty of time.

Christmas all year?

2 picoDumbs, just confirming that with TungstenAudio's recommended dual mono supply with your hockypuck rectifiers and the right bias, my Aleph J will glow like Figura 13 in the test doc. 😀
Christmas all year!
