Buffalo III - flexibility without compromise.

[FallenAngel]

Hi guys,

Any news on the single Consumer level S/PDIF input boards? A schematic even?

Thanks

 

[BrianDonegan]

Coming soon...

 

[FallenAngel]

Thanks Brian,

That doesn't look excruciatingly hard to perfboard, could you share the schematic & bom?

 

[Russ White]

No its like any other comparator circuit, pretty simple.

 

[FallenAngel]

Great, but what's IC1? 🙂

Thanks! 🙂

What's the purpose of R1 ?

 

[Russ White]

It's there in case someone uses *hot* (say 7vpp) balanced AES so that the voltage can be divided. It is normally just a jumper.

 

[avr300]

Got it. As always, good foresight.

Thanks. 🙂

Buff III, sidecar, and mux

I just received a buff 3, sidecar and mux. Could someone post a few pics of their completed setup? I'm not sure of how I want to layout the sidecar and the mux. Thanks

 

[FallenAngel]

I can't help much with the full layout, but I can certainly post my build. Thanks to the TPA guys for the input circuit, it works awesomely on perfboard.

This is (obviously) not hooked up to anything at the moment, but get's the point across...

Oh man, I left out the artist's palette on mine. Is that why the music lacks color?

This is DIY. It is never too late. 😉

No its because you use to much Vishay. Go into some Carbon Composite . 😀

 

[beau2317]

I must change my tagline - I've found some even better sounding resistors than Vishay foils. Neohm precision. I give details on the Buffalo tube stage thread.

what is the part number for t1.
