Wahhh so interested!

Here the link: Chrome Plating - The Process

Oh okiedokie.. I misinterpret that one!

You know what will be great? Chrome satin finish!... Let me sleep on this later... hahahaha

Added on August 23, 2008, 12:56 amI take the easy way out.
Send it to a workshop(plating shop), pay the man and get it done for you. KISS!!!!
I have done this during my training, no big deal. Don't have the bath ler....

Thats brushed aluminium finished. Can be satin finished too..
But you know la.. aluminium is expensive..

Added on August 23, 2008, 1:05 amTT Session with xtorm eh? What you guys talk about, other than T-Amp?

Hitting the sack ya..? See you around!

ongbs,
the JP TT session happened yesterday's afternoon! I did not join the gang as I had other errants to do.
You Ipoh mali meh?

I did posted a while back for us the LYN's T-Amp Club to have our TT Session when everyone is ready..
Before the puasa starts should be nice...

Some of the TT Sessions are impromptu... turntable/vinyl kaki gang.. now mixed with T-Amp... messy eh?

No lah. The T-Amper's TT Session have NOT transpired yet! We're planning for that, right xtorm?

Normally there would be a small TT Session in Amcorp Mall, on sundays for turntable/vinyl lovers club pending if the usual gang is there or not.

As long as you're a fan.. why not? The more the merrier!

Honestly, the chroming is just on the 'drawing board'.. subject to time and $$$...

The main thing is the sound.. looks are secondary...

yes.. that is what i thought so too!

yep. 2 boards for bi-amping
the other two... well.......

heyyy where is this place??? I need new avatar mahhh !!!

Date, time, venue we have to decide soon.. few more days before puasa...

whoaaaa so darn lucky..
gnite! i can see the smile on your face while you're sleeping and dreaming...

Whoa, one day I did not log in so many postings?

As far as hissing noise is concerned, my T-Amp with NO input connections, is dead silent. With input cable connected very low humming sound detected when ears placed close to the tweeters.
These are picked up by the input cable and amplified by the T-Amp, as highlighted by bro ongbs. But it did not affect my listening pleasure..

mysghooi,
12V 3A should be sufficient to power the T-Amp with the appropriate regulator circuits, that is!
From your second picture, it is obvious that the 3 coloured cables are for you mains connection. Use the RED and BLACK for our 230VAC, as indicated on top of the transformer.
The 3 unconnected terminals are 12-0-12 connections.
Since you only need a single power supply, you only need to use the centre and one of the side terminals.
Salesgirl will not know. Next time ask name and phone number! Probably 'easier' to get...

How much did you pay for it? Normally a single secondary output transformer is cheaper than dual one..

Yes, its a dual output.
Put it this way, I paid less for mine

You don't connect it directly like that! The output is still AC. The T-Amp need a DC power supply therefore you need to convert the AC to DC.
Normally we use (four) diodes for this or a bridge rectifier for this purposes. Then a smoothing capacitor is connected to 'smoothen' the DC which still have 'ripples' in it. This is a basic/raw unregulated rectifier circuit. A better one would be a regulated power supply which will employ either transistors or dedicated voltage regulator IC made for this purpose!
Too much to handle?

I paid about 1/2 of that.

Whoa.. you bought almost 'everything'

How much did you pay for the casing?

I guess I got lucky to get it 'cheaper'.. should have bought a few for 'spares'..

Here's one of a small voltage regulator kit that I have for a 'spare'. This is single voltage, 9V regulator if I am no mistaken.

You either buy a kit or make one yourself! Buying a kit is simpler..
No, a bridge rectifier is one of the components. See the 4 diodes on the kit board? That can be replaced by a bridge rectifier.. depends on kits and circuit design... expensive ones will be using bridge rectifiers.. diodes are cheap(er) alternative..
We use 4 diodes or bridge rectifier(same equivalent) for a FULL WAVE rectifier.. do a google..

Bridge rectifiers can be in these forms:
Schematic included.

mysghooi,
RM20? Whoa got some more? I think it's reasonable!
Looks like it's made of aluminium alloy and some steel plates. Either anodized black or painted black.. Where did you get it?

gabanyayaya,
'toy'? oh really? surprise me then!

Of course there is! There are fixed 12V one or variable, eg 0-30 volts are usually available.
I bought a variable one so that I can turn it into a bench PSU and have all the voltages up to 30VDC!
Picture shows the front panel of my bench PSU that I am using to power the T-Amp at 12.6VDC..
