Ya lor, The presence of our TAFC advisor/moderator/T-amp sifu is surely missed if he is not around !

I must say the business acumen of our president is so sharp that he is going after Ijan just after one comment from the latter. He needs also try to convince Gabanyayaya to get one as our friend is unsure of T-amp or Gainclone amp at present moment although I think he is more game to build the latter amp.

hahhaa....i would say, price vs value, still t-amp...hahaha

man jazzy your t-amp are clocking so fast

xtorm,
so far I have not gone to clipping levels just yet! All this while just playing jazz/slow numbers.. Just wait till I take out some ROCK numbers.. maybe I need to go 13VOLTS!!!

Ooops.. I am ALL that? What I do here is nothing lah Y.C., just for fun as an electronic hobbyist and audio/music lover.. just sharing the experience and some knowledge..

Yup. I think gabanyayaya is bent on the GC, the T-Amp performance is throwing off his 'sanity'.. hahahaha

xtorm, if you can get gabanyayaya and ijan to join us, you have my

YES! I have gone more than 40 hours as of yesterday! .. sweeeeet music

xtorm,

Does the T-amp come with any accompanying circuit diagram or sheet stating specification of capacitors, resistors and inductors used on the board?

How do you tell the resistors are 20k ohm?

Where do you buy those yellow-coloured polypylene capacitors for use as input caps?

the diagram is at my 1st post

the yellow cap comes with the amp.

haha jazzy, i hope too then we have more sifu here...kakaka

rm55 cant misslah, hmm ongbs is poisoning me with money tht day we yamchar...hahahha, he say im selling too cheap

but like i say for the fun of all! lets enjoy music and boycut evil marketing...kakakka

btw sifu pcwork coming soon....till now only wana pickup his board

Those yellow caps that came with the T-Amp is 1uF in value and a smaller (in size) connected in parallel with the yellow cap is an electrolytic 1uF polarised. Wonder why it install in such a manner?

thank you xtorm for making this board value for money! the enjoyment that we had certainly money can't buy

pcwork terribly busy with study and re-cabling as usual..

xtorm,

I've seen your first posting many times but missed out the pdf attachment, found it now. Thanks

What I meant on the yellow-coloured capacitor is, where did you buy the M-cap 50V 2.2uF caps?

mundorf cap, i think octave have them, i found them while seaching tro my father's stuff, good stuff they are 250v i think...

eh only now i notice got so many downloads edi...considering the user herelah...hahaha

xtorm,
if you read the evaluation board document, it is clearly stated that "12V power supply (not to exceed 13.2V)"
Exceeding this can damage the chip. It is on page 2 under 'Introduction'

I guess you're running on 2.2uF now eh?

haha been runing 2.2uf for mids since the begining, 1uf for high

yea, but th eboard is good till 16v, im using it in my car, some times showing 14v

no worries

xtorm,
the car nominal voltage is usually around 13.5VDC.
I guess it is safe to go that high then! We'll see if there would be any difference sonically..

Y.C... just to tell you I'm still in the middle between Tripath and GClone path la....so I'm still in the process of evaluating here bro....to be part of T-amp Klan or not it depends once I listen during the gathering nanti la bro....maybe I'll be listening to jazzy 'raw' and unfinished setup first (if he's generous to allow me to be the guess )..... Then you'll know that I'll be the xtorm's next customer.....

by the way are you planning to obtain the M-cap???? I heard Madisound got all kinda boutique caps with reasonable price but quite pricey for the delivery.....do you think you want to have a group order for lower shipping cost????

jazzy, my SMPS is 12V 4A
With sufficient power caps >10,000uF I believe 2A will be good enough.

Mine with 8200uF even blasting till clipping the current draw from SMPS hardly exceed 1.5A!

gabanyayaya,
of course la you can listen to mine.. remember what happened the last time when you listened to something at my place?
Surely for 55 bucks.. it's worth the gamble.. I did, and absolutely no regrets!

Sounds like a great idea! Anyone for M-cap? BTW, whats the price like?

Bro ongbs,
Thats heavy artillary!
1.5A max eh? Okay good info! Need to rethink about the SMPS usage for my 2nd. board..
Earlier I was using a 2.5A one.. I guess that should suffice eh?

Holy chromoly!! Any more kaa? Xtorm, im going to ur sales thread right now!

But by any chance ada extra ka? Want to replace internal amp in my edifier speaker.

bro, I got another smps 2.1A 13V, gonna try it tomolo

Should be enough lah

go go go

i hit sweet spot!! i reach home at 7:15 but reach my room only now....hahahha

singer are singing above my meter, very stable, like they are there, i wish its in the middle but i dont think it cant be done without time aligment

background and soundstage good, instrument seperated nicely, well atleast for car

those tht i though dull after the mod, now are making me wet...hahaha
inside the car, its all about tuning

bro, pls put a layer of news paper on the car mat...WET wor.......play clean and safe

anyways, congrat on your new "level"
