Might want to do this for my speaker as turning it on and off will give a pop or BOOOOMM!! or... does it have to do with my speaker's Amp circuit instead?

Can TS also state the price of each component?

QUOTE(penmarker @ Feb 1 2013, 12:24 AM) Good thing you found out the design is wrong early. Might go kaboom taking your audio rig with it It won't kaboom with this kind of error Actually not the computer's PSU alone, the rig is sharing power with the router, phone, modem, tube amp, list goes on. Even turned off and unplugged there will be buzzing present (although not as sever as when the computer is on). Simple solution given would be pulling the grounding all the way out to the backyard into a buried pole. See how things will go, but otherwise I'm not so bothered with the buzzing/humming. I never had experience with grounding. A lot of people says they get noise from grounding. Not sure if its bad or better. Some people will settle their ground using special way I never research what it that. QUOTE(wildwestgoh @ Feb 1 2013, 10:11 AM) Can TS also state the price of each component? I don't know the price as well as i bought together with other things so its lesser expenses. The most expensive part is WIMA 1000v 1uF, around 5 times expensive than 20mH common mode chokeMight want to do this for my speaker as turning it on and off will give a pop or BOOOOMM!! or... does it have to do with my speaker's Amp circuit instead? The pop isn't the current's problem IMO. A not-so-well designed component will produce this kind of sound. QUOTE(Pewufod @ Feb 1 2013, 05:34 PM) Currently no, i thought people always prefer prebuilt power socket + filter |

GOOD. Now that TS has scratched that itch of going DIY and "boutique" components, why don't he go ahead and ABX his baby with off-the-shelf unit like I suggested in the previous thread. He'll be very surprised how little/non-existent difference in sound "boutique"/Audiophool components make other than make the snake-oil traders rich.

Spending in filter,even its luxury or waste its ok for me, since i learn something but i cannot accept invest too much on power cord or power cable |

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « new update.. now uses silver plated occ as conductor removed the pcb because the big capacitor, the soldering cream almost touch the screw, which connects 115VAC to ground. another reason is the big capacitor can't go through the hole just changed a new soldering head.. the quality darn good like changed a new high quality soldering kit removed the Y-capacitor to follow the genuine felix design This post has been edited by NoobHacker: Nov 20 2013, 09:09 PM |

latest revision. the PCB is used to build tube amp but i use to build filter. reasons are : 1. the PCB is very hard to adjust size, some too large and some too small. if cut big ones, the screw hole would not maintain 4 original holes. 2. The previous ones, direct solder and cable tie, damaged when bring it oversea, and damages again when comes back. 3. Extremely solid and 4 screw hole. easy to solder too. |
