Hello. So glad I found this forum! I'm from Norway so excuse me for my poor English writing skills.
My project:
I have an old Tandberg Huldra 6 radio cabinet, that I want to modernize!
After looking around for some time, i took a chance and orderd two GB150D amp modules from SKA-audio, and one sps80 power supply from coldamps.
Not recived and mounted yet. Will come with some questions when I get them I guess.
The audiosource will be a Sonos (music streamer) witch have optical output and RCA/Optical input. The Sonos is remotecontrolled and has no display, so the goal is to get everything hidden inside the cabinet. But I do want å volumcontroller, that I can connect/glue/weld to existing volumknob some how, to keep the nice outside look.
I do have some soldering experience, and the fitting/building should not be a problem, it's finding what I need, and how to best connect it I need help for!
Have about a thousand questions but I will start off with this:
I think I will have to get a DAC, volume controll, and a pre-amp maby? Is any of the ebay DIY kits ok for this? This will be a pure Sonos setup, so I only need a optical input and a set of RCA outs to the amps I guess.
Not sure if it matters, but i listen to all kinds off music, like a tight and hard bass at high volume. Not sure what kind of speakers to get yet, want to build this first then test it at different speakers.
All help, tips and links is highly appreciated!!
