I just bought a load of T-nuts and stainless bolts for speaker projects from FastFix Direct. Minimum order is about £15 though.
Guys,
www.farnell.com has them! Sometimes we buy those for reseach.
We will put this screws in all new orders for the UcD180/400!
Thanks for the idees!

I just screwed mine through the case using some M3 from a box of assorted screw I picked up in Maplin.

Curiously I think I have the very same box...
It's about the only place I managed to find a supply of assorted useful looking bolts. However, probably like you, I find the short M3s to be the most useful one, and consequently have non left, and a box of the other sizes...
I will try farnell for some.
Whilst we are on the topic though. Any thoughts on assorted standoffs? Farnell again? I haven't found anywhere on the highstreet which can sell, say, M4 standoff nuts...
These pictures look like you smeared vaseline over the end of your lens and were holding the live wire while pressing the trigger...

What is Knipex though?

Stef1777,
Looks ok!
But why do you use the Schaffner netfilter?
In the most netfilters are mounted Y-capacitors (from live and neutral to ground) this can affected your sound because of earthcurrent. Bruno wrote in this topic that he never advise to use netfilters, becuase this degreed the sonic performance of your hifi setup.
Thereby with the UcD180 you don't need them for EMI suppression.

Hi!
Your picture shows a connector with filter. I'm sure I've read that it is NOT recommended. You should use one without the filter (X2 caps).
Other than that, it looks VERY nice.😎

Can somebody elaborate on that? Is it advisable to not use that kind of filter on the amp or not even on other place in the house? Is it just the capacitor to earth or is it the whole ciruit? If you can't use these filters, how do you protect your devices against overvoltage (is a varistor also 'bad'?) or filter out the noise in the electricity?Jan-Peter said:

Nice work.
ewildgoose, in the background of the picture appears something which I think looks like a mutlichannel potentiometer. If yes, how much was it?
Everything I could find was for outragus prices (US$ 300 and up )

I already have iec netfilter on others equipements without problem. I'll try with and without if time.

I tried the circuit alone (not connected to the UcD). I tried with an 2 x 25V transformer.
When the power goes on, the GND is well switched but I have 42 Ohms. I used an 2N2222 from my stock.
Is this normal?
Stef,
Where do you have 42 ohm? From Collector to ground?
Seems quit highe but is ok when you like to pull down the /ON line.

Yes.
I can may be try to adjust the resistor to have a lower impedance. I'll try when I will have received my slime line toroid transformers.
