And what did we buy today?

I have two of those 160 GB iPods floating around the house somewhere. Not sure what to do with them exactly, except maybe use them as local audio sources (I don’t own any streaming devices)?

And to stay on topic, a purchase from the diyAudio Store: a long-awaited Pearl 3 phono pre. Oddly I was able to get the power supply kit beforehand, but that’s no big deal. It just means I won’t have an excuse not to build it!

I ordered yet another tpa3255 board after the last one had its 12v onboard regulator fizzle and smoke everything downstream.
A different board this time around.

DIBuy has its challenges…

Also picked up about ten pounds of decent Canadian, non-gmo granola to replenish the stash.

For my old iPod I am refurbishing:
A new front/back.
A new screen (broke the old one)
The metal frame (also broken)
A 160GB SSD HDD to replace the mechanical drive

A bunch of screws and a clamp for my camera.

Nothing, despite multiple efforts to pay TME for a pair of Heatsinks. Fraud alert from the bank> yes it was me, ok transaction> np, wait 20 min and run it again> 20 min later fail > fail > fail...
BTW, shipping a similar weight from TME to the PNW, US is 1/3 of the heatsinkusa quote.

A pair of Radian LT 2.2 planer tweeters for another run at a Jordan JX92s two way. Third time's the charm.

I bought lunch after the eclipse, but couldn’t help noticing the name of the place was a triode!

I bought some rectifier boards from audiophonics with 20,000uf per side with fast recovery diodes and some three way screened power cable and a few lengths of braid to beef up the screening in my active speakers. They are very compact and this doesn’t leave much clearance between PSU and audio bits so I’m trying some screened cable to try to minimize the small amount of audio hash coming from the psu cabling.
