I'm enjoying a set in my main system from the first GB that Ripster and Patrick were kind enough to put together.

For clarity, the "first GB" refer to this, which is all bipolar transistors :
https://www.diyaudio.com/community/...urrent-mirror-iv-converter-a-la-ad844.360162/

This one refers to the SMD version of this :
https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/folded-cascode-cen-iv-with-fixed-rails.389776/
It is FET based and includes a built-in 3rd order low pass filter.

I would say quite different from the first one. 😊

There is also a through-hole version which is not limited. But PCB only.
You need to match your own devices.

This is an incredible bargain. In reality, you will never get to obtain these without a massive amount of work (and more expense) other than through this group buy. Huge thanks goes to Ripster for taking it on, and you will not be disappointed with sound quality.

And we have the last one...

 

[Ripster]

This Limited Edition GB is CLOSED....

Thanks everyone. I will send paypal requests in the next days . Please use the FRIEND option in paypal...

 

[Ripster]

As Patrick has mentioned this is +/-15V IV... And if we all agree it should stay like this.
Since components will be ordered in bulk for the price, it can only be one option.
Maybe Patrick can later share what values would need changing so if someone really wants to change to 12V has that option to order some additional values...

 

[EUVL]

I think the standard kit should only be 15V.
I shall publish the list of components to change for 12V (a few resistors, so little costs).
Those who want 12V can then order and swap those themselves.

IMHO better to use separate power supplies than the DAC for best results.

Missed this ....bugger.

How would one apply for the THT PCB's?

 

[EUVL]

Still the through-hole version.
