That Crown amp sounded pretty good last time i heard it.

Is anyone staying over Saturday night at the Hall? If so what is the likely plan for Saturday evening now that the lodge is a popular restaurant? Would a booking be necessary for food? When I say popular it wasn't to infer that it wasn't previously, just that perhaps it was a bit more informal. If p...

I can also bring along my Douglas Self Trimodal amp again if we're short on amplification?

Hi Mike,

Just normal phono, single ended.

I could perhaps cobble together some balanced outputs to try but I'll have to obtain some XLRs..

I will bring along:

1. RTZ DAC
2. Logitech Transporter
3. CDPro2 player

No amp or speakers, unless that's a real problem?

I managed to book the Friday night at the Hall months ago (I can't remember the price but not cheap) but if there is a problem with others being able to get to the Friday thing at Darios I can cancel and book something else? I'll go where the party is! Since I'm only there for the Friday night I don...

I'm probably not going to have a full system, just DAC with CD front end.

So I would need to rely on someone's good will to allow me to use their amp & speakers if people would like to hear it.

Nice work! Looks great and I bet it sounds excellent.

This is who I bought from:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/393964467187

They work, have not yet exploded and generally seem to be ok.

The seller has some negatives but it looks like that is mostly people (from EU) not getting their stuff quickly and bad communication, rather than selling fakes.

Count me in for the 'bolleaux seminar'!

And...this is the initial RTZ DAC project, now completed with the super-regulators for the analogue filter board: https://i.ibb.co/5kJYS2s/IMG-20230926-151138.jpg This one uses the Squeezebox Receiver guts (the lowest pcb under the DAC board) to stream to the I2S from LMS. I don't think I'll being t...

Fantastic job! It doesn't get much shoddier! Well done.

A quick update on the RTZ DAC that I will be bringing to Owston. I have split the power supplies between the DAC and the filter board, implementing a Jung/Didden super-reg on the +/- 15v for the filter. Since there was so little space available I had to also replace the toroidal that was there befor...

I've PM'ed you the Ebay suppliers I used for the hard to find transistors and the AD825s/

I just built the super reg and I got the transistors on Ebay from a guy in the UK. They seem fine. The regulator works a treat.
