PeeCeeBee V4 GB!

Hi Shaan,


I am totally new and never try to DIY any amplifer before. But I heard about PeeCeeBee from my colleague CK Wong (in HK), and then read your great story in here. I would like to order 2 PCBs from you to start my first DIY journey!


Cheers, Daniel

Yesterday a couple mistakes occurred in the published total order list and confusion resulted. Here is the corrected GB3 list. If there is still any problem with it then do let me know.

All 40 PCBs confirmed. Thanks everyone who joined GB3. Will update as soon as boards are home.

The mailman delivered two packages today. One with more of the nice stuff and another small packet with a pair of the next big things! Can't wait to bend those legs!!! ;) :D

In September I compared four channels of V4 with two having 2SK/J and the other two having ECX10N20/P20, the 125W rated ones. I couldn't tell much difference, except low bass seemed little better defined with the ECX, but the boards with ECX had Panasonic FM while the ones with 2S had Nippon Chemi-con SXE which could also have an effect on LF performance. However, the ECX pair needed less turns in VR3 to reach 100mA with same VAS bias in both cases.

Hence I would say there's not much difference in sonics between the two pairs to prefer one over another. You can use either that is available to you without losing anything in the sonics.

The 250W rated ECX pair that has just arrived is yet to be tested in the prototype of the next PeeCeeBee. :yes::spin:
