can i have tipp for mains fuse-specs? want to 1st time make some silk screen info on knobs etc... (exept power on/off) 🙂

thanks

 

[Zen Mod]

30VA Donut , 230Vac mains

30VA/230V=130mA

feel free to write and use F160mA

F means Fast&Furious

🙂

 

[noelectrix]

tnx😉, just wondered that FW Poweramps are fused with "slow", maybe because of bigger cap banks and inrush peak.
tnx and best
stefan

 

[Zen Mod]

yup

preamps are SmallBadaBoom , while amps are BigBadaBoom

to keep you busy : )
case almost done and i want to realize a mini jack input on the front (randomly people come by, saying "i got a version of Gary Peacock NOT messed up by Keith Jarret", but just on the i Pod..
But mini Jacks put gnd r/l together, does this mess up seperate ground scheme, or doesn´t it matter because it´s in front of the buffer?

tnx!

Edit: I have minijack that does not connect signalgnd to chassis

 

[Zen Mod]

that's easy , when you have a problem with secondary input regarding gnd arrangement , just insert 10-33R in one channel's GND wire/lead

 

[noelectrix]

that's easy

😉 tnx

 

[Zen Mod]

it is messing with overal GND scheme

however , considering that (separate) channel GNDs are meeting together at chassis , each having 10-15R NTC in line , that means they're separated effectively with 20-30R

when you introduce input having common ground for both channels , to avoid shorting your precious separated channel GNDs , series resistor in one lead is a must

 

[noelectrix]

oki, will do that!

 

[noelectrix]

now I even understood ; )

Hey ZM, what's the case did you use in IP build #139 ? Stunning work BTW.

If I had to guess it looks like modushop slimline 350mm, not sure about the height though.. 80mm?

 

[Zen Mod]

3HE : Slim Line 03/350 frontale 10mm NERO e coperchi in alluminio 3mm

2HE possible , but veeery tight in height , and no height for base plate

my own is in pesante (Hillbilly , for less fluent in "Talian ) 3HE/400 , all steel , except front plate

 

[transcendent]

Well, I believe that Hillbilly can sing though 🙂 Thanks for quick reply.

 

[Mr_Zenith]

Well, if we're going to go all "hillbilly" here, then I'm obliged to point out that this should really be the "Arn Punkin'" thread. 😀


Excellent work, sir. And it's nice to see more stuff from our friends at Modushop.

 

[Zen Mod]

OK ,was joke ........ pesante means heavy ........ but I really like to think of those cases as Peasant ones

 

[Mr_Zenith]

Uncle Jed approves.*

So... is "Zen Amount" roughly equivalent to "Mojo"? 😉 Enquiring minds want to know.

*Apologies for the really bad meme...
