Audio Selector Site Down?

ewingfox · 03:53 AM

Went online to download the usage guides so I can start prepping my powersupply and designing my chassis - and the site I ordered my kit from appears down!

http://www.audiosector.com/

Right?

Two things - anyone have a copy of the .pdf you could share, and two - anyone know if this is actually the official site? I assume it is just a site maintenance or something to that ilk, -

Thanks in advance,

Ewing

The site is temporarily down due to some HDD errors, that's the lates info I got from site administrator. The are working on fixing it now.

The manual can be found here: Commercial Gainclone kit- building instructions

If you have any aditional questions, don't hesitate to ask them here.

I am eagerly awaiting my order! I live in South Canada (Northern Vermont) so it is always either really fast! or really, really slow

Ended up going with the alternative torrid you suggest, the antek unit for this build, but may upgrade it. Have some questions about how the dual mono topology will work, but I'd rather RTFM before pestering all of the good folks here on the forum!

There was a "usage guide" pdf that I saw on your site - is that gone and lost? i found it to be very helpful, but I didn't download it and my temp cache has been cleared!

Take care, and good luck with the HDD recovery,

Ewing

The pdf is too big to put it here, but it will be available on a website when it's up and running again.

Dual mono is only recommended when two toroids are being used, with one toroid, use only one rectifier board.

Kit arrived last night and my gawd you sell a beautifully printed board! Still have to do a parts inventory check and ferret over the build forum before I start the build!

I also think like that

Hey,
Is there any chance for ordering the premium kit? @Peter I still ask you via PM! I'm sorry for my impatience.

Great kits for people starting out! (Or people that want "less complex, but still powerful.")
I built several kits some years ago, it was a very nice introduction for me.
They sound very good when done right, plans/build guides are simple yet explanatory, and they are easy enough to build.

Thank you Peter!

I still have some unbuilt 4780 kits that might get done soon.
