Not open for further replies.
Thanks Thomas,

I received the 8 TDA1541As couple days ago. They look to be in good condition, but you sent them in bubble wrap - doesn't bubble wrap produce lots of static electricity? An antistatic bag would have been better, don't you think?
 
hi,

BTW, the funish ultimate VER.3 1541a DAC will supply to arket on October.

Since I source a supply had NI-PC EI 80% Permalloy lamination.

I will optional for USER choose this or not.

Ultimate Ver.3 can use 80% Nickel permalloy for it will very good.


pls see the connection between OP-amp & Trans.

thx

thomas

hi,


there will had two choice for me, any advise.

NI-PC EI 46 80% Permalloy 0.18mm lamination.
NI-PB EI 46 50% Permalloy 0.2mm Lamination.

size of the OPT EI 46X36mm.


since the small OPT had air-gap & can running DC.
1:1 OPT running for AC signal only. Look's the 80% will better.
But I hope to collect some advise for dyers.

Standard OPT follow with the kit will use Z11 EI 0.3mm laminations.

Taiwan OCC wire.

Price for the 80% Nickel. + USD145 per pair with the dac.
Price of the 50% Nickel + USD115 per pair with the dac.

This is minus the standard OPT which was use Z11 laminations already.

All were furukawa Riken wire.


I will optional for USER choose this or not.

Looks AC signal 80% Nickel permalloy for it will beter. More sweet sound.

pls advise,

thx

hi all,

this is the coming full balance TDA1541a dac,

full balance means every dac running for one channel +,-. not the same as parallel chips design. finally will had 4 IV output.

now is understand testing.

thx

thomas

Hey ,hey!!!

I want this PCB!!!.I have 4 TDA 1541A that can mount in this PCB.How much cost? 😉

Thank's


😉 😉 😉 😉
 
hi ggta, Areman, raikkonen:

I must test in very safe.

Three version which one will be better.

sinceI use program to seperate the data steam to left channel +,- & right channel +,-.
since the Dac was a real full balance DAC.
Special is the synchronous operate maintain perfect synchronization by program.
I need test longer time, in more test audio set up, now I was testing with electronic horn Altec 9862, 4344, 4343.
This DAC I prepared three samples which I need to test their performace different .
a. single regulator.
B. slunt regulator.
c. Parallel caps for power supply.

since all the DAC can running in NOS, NOS + reclock & NOS+reclock+DF.

Every chips can parallel or single running too.

I will prepare in full funish & test but will not contain with chassis.
USB receiver, signal selection board & nano pulse xformers will follow with every kit. OPT standard output stage will use 2X5532 & 1 5534. But diyers can upgrade to BC109/2N930 cascode output stage. SE( RCA ) output stage stage will use pre-amp Output transformers to cnnect.

Do U know the power supply also need to test in safe since if total parallel two chips every channel ( total 4 chips) I must test the power supply is stable or not!!!)

Programming chips for synchronization I was testing version two now. Finally this will sepertae because diyers can dupdate.


I need around 4~6 weeks more.

Since the PCb of the 2SK389/BC109/2N930 was prepare the test print only. I need to test.

Finally the op-amp can connect four pcs of 1:1 output trans & rnning in full balance with transformers output.

AD1865 fullbalance will be same too.

thx

hi Areman,

very thanks for your interest.

During accumulate the experience the previous experience. I still prefer produce fully test & funish version DAC. At least Diyers can hear music quickly & considerate how to change parts to modify.

secondly was I cannot gurantee your chips can work. If U had interest with my dac later. I will advise U post your four chips to me & I will fit into yor dac, under test pass & pst U back all. Cost only little bit postage but U will less risk.

this is my opinions.
Is it Ok??

thx

thomas
