where to get hold of Aleph 2 PCB´s or .grb files, other than KK PCB?

[sibbeli]

Hi,

Where can I find gerber files or even pcb´s that isn´t hillariously expensive, and are as close as possible to the original layout of the Pass Labs Aleph 2?


Anyone got something good for me?

Best Regards, Mathias

you can buy this board from chipamp.com

Hi biju55,

I suppose this is only an Aleph Mini and Not Aleph 2....

🙂

But it can be used for an Aleph 2. Buy two sets, use one input board per channel and two pairs of output boards.

with additional output boards you can make Aleph 20000000 , if you wish

But it can be used for an Aleph 2. Buy two sets, use one input board per channel and two pairs of output boards.

and use the other 2 front end boards to make a aleph mini🙂

Or use them to make an Aleph-H headphone amp... 😀 😀 😀

Is there something wrong with KK?

Thanks for correction and info, guys!

I've read reviews that complain that the KK boards lack copper. ie some of the traces are a bit thin.

Another possibility is to use burning amplifier " single ended " out put board with Chip-amp input board to build an Aleph 2

clever idea…..😀

Hi Nelson!

There is of course no problems with using KK's pcb's, but they are expensive, and do you get any profit from him as he uses your design and makes good money on it? If he doesn't give you anything, then I'm not interested in his pcb's..

While I have you here, what kind of PSU do you recommend for Aleph 2s? I have on order 48*33,000uf 50V NCC 2,5"*5" can caps, what would you have done for a kind of psu with that much C on hand? I'm thinking of both a reg. psu, capacitance multiplier and even CLC/CRC.. What would you have done, now 20 yrs later?

Btw, you are my biggest idol!!
