FS: Paradise Phono PCB Set

[Bigman80]

Found envellops. Will start packing the kit with pcb only. Will ship them maybe today or tomorrow. Will send you an email once it is done. Stay tuned.
Thanks

Awesome, please send mine to the address I provided.

Many thanks

Looking good.

For the record I always prefer using heatsinks that overhang the end of the Calvin pcbs and then drilling them to mount astride the main pcbs. Less hassle than mounting them through the paradise pcb.

Hi. Packed all the PCB sets without parts today and went to the post office. The waiting line was LOOOOOONG, probably 1Hr-1.5Hrs waiting time...

Will try again tomorrow morning...

Finally was able to ship my envellops. Check your email for shipping confirmation.
Keep in mind that with all the air traffic reduction, longer shipping delays are to be expected...

Tomorrow will try to start matching the Calvin parts. Stay tuned

Still a few Paradise PCB kits with pre-reg and CRC filter left. I'll probably have enough Calvin buffers to go with it as well...

Let me know if interested

Sylvian, still no sign of any parcel in the post. Do you have a postage confirmation?

 

[sq225917]

Sylvian, you've posted elsewhere on the forum today please answer my PMs.

Hi. sq225917 already answered by private email, sorry for the delay. As I said was side track with a lot of other projects here locally, repaired, and Covid related delay in our day to day. Everything now take so long...

Anyway started the JFET test and matching for the Calvin sets. Here getting prepare for curve tracer testing of all 200 PF5102 JFET. Then I'll double check on my own Calvin pcb.
Long work ahead of me...
Stay tuned

I compared the both matching methods (with curve tracer and the suggested test gig as included with the docs), and both gives similar results. I already have matched sets and the zero output adjustment is rock steady and easy to adjust. I should be able to ship the remaining Calvin pcb with matched transistor sets by the end of the week.

Since I tested them in the actual circuit, with the actual pcb, you should be able to get exactly the same result as me...

BTW while I assembled a test pcb to check the parts matching I realized that the pcb silkscreen for R1 & R2 is incorrect, and should be reversed. The circuit will still work as it is since both 100R & 75R resistors are so close in value, but it is better to assemble the pcb according to the schematic. Sorry for that... See the included correction.

Stay tuned for updates.

vasillis you have mail. You are the last member on the waiting list. You wanted a complete kit + Calvin + Matched parts, it is available for you. Please get back to me.
Thanks

Seem I'll be able to sell more Calvin Buffer Semiconductor matched sets with the extra 100 PF5102 I have in stock. The complet matched set includes: PF5102 matched, J107 near Vgs, and unmatched KSA1381.

Let me know if you are interested, if yes I'll need to buy extra J107 and KSA1381 to complete the extra kits.

Thanks
SB
