I am torn between KISAC and going overboard!

For KISAC, I already have the casings, I need two as the PSU will be housed in a separate casing. I uploaded the intended casing earlier..
I also have an ALL OUT casing which is a 'killer'.. brushed aluminium finished.. That will housed the power supply (SMPS)/BATTERY POWERED and 2XTA2024 as I will be using bi-amping... definitely don't have time till Saturday...

Choices... choices...

I think you already knew the answer!

jazzy how do you biamping 2 t-amp??? does this will multiply the power out put....can you show me the connection diagram....simple2 alcon can....just draw with hand for easy to comprehend....

At last, LYN back to biz
Come on...post....post

Phew, what a relief! I thought it was my 'screamyx' connection...

(edit: missed out the 'x') hehe.

I tot it caused by tm "nut" too...

btw, I tested the T-amp with 12V Li-Ion battery, the SQ can't compare to SMPS.
SMPS give me better soundstage

No lah.. not to multiply the power
I got the 1st board with 2uF input caps. The high end is excellent but bass department not 'fantastico'.
The second board, which I am using now is having 10uF input caps.. bass extension is excellent with a slight cut back in the high end... so...
I'll use the 1st board to drive my tweeters, and the second to drive my woofers.. the speakers are obviously biwire capable.. I believe the sound will be 'better'... With two T-Amps runnng side by side, it will be less strain on the T-Amps too! ...

Oh really? I have read somewhere, this particular guy prefers SLA.. so does Red Wine Audio..
I did tried SMPS.. excellent but loose out some 'details' to linear PSU as posted earlier. I personally have NOT tried my DIN55 battery..
Honestly I do not know what to expect. No doubt the battery has A LOT of current reserves but as we all know, the T-Amp draws very little current!

wah ongbs nice housing...get me 1 when come down next time

btw this sat is no good, i got work to do, mayb u guys go ahead.

no news yet from my gf side abt getting the package, hopefully got good news later this evening, else tomolo then

Alamak. T-Amp gathering without xtorm? Do we want to proceed guys?
Y.C., your view is greatly appreciated. And others too...

I didn't hear long enough for detail but obviously the soundstage not as wide as SMPS so I stop for further test.
Unless I need portable amp or else I will stick to SMPS

for those installing T-amp into casing, please pay note to this type of speaker terminals (refer to pic),
they are not suitable for metal casing coz it didn't c/w insulation washer like those RCA input connectors.
All the outputs of T-amp will short to casing (ground) when we tighten it !!!

ongbs,
fair enough! So, what is the rating of your SMPS?
I tried mine rated at 2.5A, which is quite sufficient. I however have this plan to use the PC's SMPS which is rated at 16A!
Don't have the time to try that out.. once the T-Amp is singing, its kinda hard to switch it off to tryout new things...

why not, go ahead man, im just like u guys, doing it for fun, hobby, not a leader or wat

yep please take note for those who is doing it 1st time, also the rca female (input)

are QED 25th Silver Anniversary nice? silver plated...hmmmm, must be pretty good sounding, im using those electrical 240v blue white wire for my mids...hahahaha

no body try out 13.8v yet?

Good pointer/advice ongbs!
There is a similar binding post just like that but have the insulator at the back, that will isolate/float the conductor. I use this type of binding posts for my PSU output...
Sorry don't have pix to show it...

The more the merrier mahhh

I have tried silver/silver plated cables.. generally they sounded 'bright' but NOT metallic.. good to use to tune your bass heavy system.. some people like it because of the enhanced 'details'... Then again, this is all system dependant.. not to mention your ears and listening preferences..

Too much 'details' make me fatigue easily...

I thought it's 13.2VDC?

What? Today still no news of arrival of second shipment of T-amps?

Just pulling your legs, not to worry as we'll wait patiently.

The President of TAFC not attending our first gathering? Mana boleh?

Since many of us have yet to receive our T-amps by now let alone hear it sing nor perform any mods, what say all if we postphone the TAFC get-together till after Hari Raya as it is important for Jazzy to be around will the listening session be meaningful.

xtorm, I don't think the T-amp could drive my SF Concerto Home loudspeakers.

<-- saying, "where's my T-Amp" over and over and over again! Hahahaha

I am also waiting patiently for my second sets..

Yar lorrr.. no President, no gath!

I agree to that! We'll postponed this until suitable time as this will give our members time to receive their T-Amps, modify/experiment to their heart content! Properly burn in before settling down with the FINAL version of their T-Amp!

Eh? I need to be around also?
