The YARRA Preamplifier/HPA for Melbourne DB Group Buy

[xrk971]

We will have to see where the prices fall at. As soon as JP gets the CAD drawings done we can send out for a quote on the custom panels.

Is it too late to order a yara board?

 

[xrk971]

Not at all, we are still accepting orders.

 

[BigE]

Please add me to the list for one.

 

[BigE]

And please add me to the machined case list.

Waiting to see what the price is before committing to anything.

We are starting to carefully sort out the YARRA BOM shopping cart - Vunce has taken the lead on doing this and want to thank him because I know this takes hours of work. We are close though - but you all should be prepared (mentally) because these are premium parts for a premium amp!

That is good news on the BOM - thanks to Vunce for the hours spent searching out all the components to put it all together. Look forward to seeing it in detail.

Seems I needed to do the cut and paste with the list to keep my self on it. 🙃

 

[xrk971]

Sorry, I have not been keeping up with maintaining the list, but looks like you guys have it under control. I have some deadlines with other work going on so will revisit and square things off in another day.

Vunce had a very good question as he was working the BOM/Shopping Cart for Yarra and Melbourne. Which components on Melbourne can be left off when using it with the Yarra MB? Note that Melbourne was designed to work as a standalone preamp - that's right, all that is needed are +/- power rails with a GND, and feed your signal in and get signal out. However, on Yarra we have room for big fancy boutique caps. So here are the parts you can leave off of the Melbourne and replace with a jumper. The output AC coupling caps are optional as Melbourne is designed to have close to 0mV DC offset (as high as 20mV depending on luck). You can tweak it by adjusting some resistor values if desired.

 

[TboneAK]

X, no worries! It was my noob mistake. It’s so fun being part of this community! People like you, JP, and so many others make it so. A big thanks!!

 

[Kokanee]

Hi X,
We are good with 1 Yarra board ordered. I did not want to change the list, as you might miss it.

Thanks,

I just ordered 5 YARRA boards for a verification build before ordering the whole lot.

JPS64,
Thank you for doing the 3D case work design. Looks great.

We are all paid off, thank you everyone! The verification build PCB should be here in 5-6 days. Once I can prove that the layout is correct, i will order the rest.

 

[gary s]

Just as to update X, when do you expect the Yarra PCB board set will be in your hands ready to send out invoice requests for payment / delivery and also the machined chassis / enclosure for the preamp?
