Hope you got my email
Case not (I feel odd using the diyaudio snd feature, where you get no record that the email is sent):
Hi grataku
My email is:
richard.grant@nre.vic.gov.au
My postal address:
5 Ballinamona Street
Fairfield VIC
City Melbourne
3078 ('Australian zip' postcode)
Australia
Shipping to Australia = $US5.50
(was when Dale Herman sent me some boards a couple of months ago)
I don't care if it's by
USPS Economy (Surface) Parcel Post
Or whatever
Is Paypal best for you??
Paypal charge to you I think is 4%?
To be added to my bill
Let me know total cost
Best Regards,
Richard,

Hi Grataku
> those interested in the boards: send me an email
I sent you ‘an email’ from here a few days back, but haven't heard.
Could you post the status of this here?
If you’re short of time, say with names of those who got them . . .
TIA

If help is needed with a second run of pcb's I would be more than willing to help out where needed. I understand that it is quite the hassle shipping a couple of hundred boards to many parts of the world.
I am not quite sure who needs to be contacted about this so I am posting this here. Hope this helps.

Goskers - I noticed in your profile that you're a college athlete from Illinois - any chance you're at UIUC? I live in Urbana but I'm in St. Louis for school, but if you are nearby in Illinois then I can definately help you out on the group buy.

An Alternate Design
As an alternative, BrianGT has another X board design that looks very good. You can see it here:

hi all, I bought 6 HiFizen's ALeph X boards.
I am a newbie in Aleph series, got few stupid questions.... really need your guys help !!!
1. the board is designed as Power Amp circuit, right? (or I misunderstood it... it's for pre-amp ! ??)
2. the input voltage is 15V, wondering if I wanna increase the output power, can I increase the voltage, say + - 50DC ? (so it's roughly 100W)
3. so I realized I need more MOSFET in parallel in order to provide more power consumption... which MOSFET on the board I should increase ?
4. the output has + and - .... wondering.....if it's a power amp... what's the - output for ? the negative input in speaker ?
5. can I make the input stage to unbalanced one? just RCA type instead of XLR? if yes... how ?
6. I've seen many people posting this board contains some "output devise" ... ??? what's that mean ? what devise ?
cheer.

UP4 you will have to read more on Aleph-X tread and look on the Aleph-X high power version tread ...maybe that help

They are under Pass Labs forum ... you will see The Aleph-X tread or you can use search and tipe , something like "Aleph-X high power " I think that will do...

With +-50V you Would get around 500W in 8 ohms, and few kW of heat so i wouldnt play with that high voltage.
With +-15V u get around 50W isnt that enough? 🙂

Nelson himself uses 30-0-30 and 32 mosfet/chn (I think) for the XA200 and get 200W burning off 480W in the process, I would definitely stay below that.
15-0-15 gets you ~20 clean watts (clipping at ~30W).

I see ! thanks 🙂
I thought + - 50V DC only gives roughly 100WATT for poweramp...
it seems SuperSymmetric is different...
it doesn't waste much energy
so according to HiFiZen's design (4 MOSFET output per channel), I can get 20 ~ 30 Watt output? or as skaara said, I can get 50W ???
cuz my speaker only has 89db

It is not more efficient, but it is a bridged amp, which requires lesser voltage rails for the same output power.

no kidding !!!
now I see why 15VDC can boost up to 30W or MORE.
please bear with my stupidness.

It's LESS than 30W, trust me. I measured it. That is at clipping.
If you are familiar with distortion curves as a function of power, it should tell you that you can probaly listen to 20 decent watts during peaks of musical program.
Rev1.0 boards!
Chad, I have received the board. Totally owesome.
Thanks alot for your time and effort.
