As for Buffalo-II - yes the new tridents and AVCC will work just fine - in fact I would highly recommend using both if you have not updated already - simply because the new ones are much much more robust.

Cheers!

Indeed, I may even have been a bit reserved in my praise.

I currently have the trident v3 (maybe v3.1 can't remember), bought a while back, presume these are latest?

I had presumed this AVCC is new?

I'll say it again😀

Hi Russ and Brian

I’ve just fitted your new HD and HDBP to my B3 and just wanted to say how happy I am with the results.

A nice step up from the original HD and HDBP which really lifts the sound to new levels of clarity and refinement IMHO.

Thanks for the work put in and if I may thanks also to the Beta testers without whom these great products would still be in the test stage

😎

Russ, I've ordered two boards of the new HDBP. I didn't order the complete kits, though, and I'm starting to regret that because I'm having trouble finding the 2.5V voltage reference LT1034. DigiKey don't seem to stock the part you specify, LT1034IZ-2.5. What is the critical parameter here? Is it the temperature coefficient?

To summarize:

1.) Your spec: LT1034IZ-2.5
2.) DigiKey lists LT1034BIZ-2.5 as a direct substitute of (1).
3.) LT1034CZ-2.5 appears identical and is less than half the cost of (2).

They are available on the TP web site, look under "Parts Bin" US$6.00😉

We realize that many people have a bunch of parts on hand and only need a couple parts. So, while the LT references and a few other parts are listed on the Parts page, I can supply just about any of the parts needed for our kits if needed.

I plan on listing more individual parts on the parts page, but until then, just ask.

Thanks, Brian. I have sent an inquiry via a Twisted Pear e-mail address.

A note on the availability of the new AVCC module...

I have been building them by hand from a stock of prototype boards we got for testing (same as final version). I am making these available with Buffalo orders, and building them as fast as I can.

I am also having a large batch manufactured, and will make them generally available when complete. (I just can't build them fast enough to meet general demand.) These will be available in a few weeks.

The boards and parts are identical between the two, it's just a question of time to build and all the other stuff I need to do to fill orders. If I get some extra time, and can get more built, I will make them available sooner.

Over the weekend, I found time to mill a stencil for the AVCCs, so I will be able to crank some out quickly. Additionally, the mfg run should be coming in soon...

Long story short, the AVCC modules are now available.
