I ordered the Jupiter caps, so if you want to wait I'll tell you how they did 😀 I was going to go with the Obbs, but I'll wait for Rajacat to install them and hear what he has to say. We are both using Omega speakers with 4.5" hemp drivers.

I did install about 10K uF in stiffening caps on my Optima using 4 larger and 3 smaller caps. I haven't had enough time to try it out both ways, but I'm not sure the Optima really needs any help powering the little Trends. Other SLA bats might benefit more. If there is a difference it is very small.

Just received the Jupiter Caps from Michael Percy. They are huge! Not Obbligato huge, but they are as long as the case itself and 2 of them side by side are about as wide! I think these will go in my Dac instead.
 
I just received my Obbs. I'll probably be able to install them this weekend and see how they mesh with my Omega Hemp Dipoles. I'm biamping my single drivers which actually have two drivers and two pairs of binding posts per speaker. I'll install the Obbs. in one amp and then do an A/B with the other amp.

My Audiomagnus battery power supply should be here any day now. I'll post inside and outside pics and give a short review. I have to adjust the length of the interconnects since my amps are now wired with long ICs and short (pure silver) speaker cables.

Really? I preordered one too. Did Mike W contact you to say they are shipping?
 
Cool, I just bought one from wluk. 🙂 Thanks for the info

Another question, I think I found the problem for my flickering LEDs, I measured the voltage and it is only getting 2.2-2.4 V (fluctuates). I am thinking of replacing the RLED, I measured it and it's 10K more or less. I want to replace the LED with one that takes around 3.2 V, how much should I reduce the resistor by?

Hi All,

I hope I am posting in the right place....
Received my first TA 10.1 yesterday - quite frankly I was blown away - it replaced a Rotel RA-1060 60 watt integrated, there is simply no comaparison, it reveals details and sounds I have never heard before...
My question is this:
In laymans terms how do I take two of these and biamp my speakers? I am using Kef IQ3's (biwired)?

Many thanks

Anthony
