Welcome! But where are you getting the torroid? NIXIE? Crazy price therelah!
Last I saw part of the TA2020 kit is RM199!

Ya the kit at Nixie is over over price.

JP got few shops sell toroid, but more than 100 bucks if not mistaken.
The rating might not suit our requirement also.

The next shop would be StandWell.. but most toroid there are MIC.. just over rm100..

If more than 100 I will pass.
Go EI with regulated cct.

That would be the best.
Either use the 7812 regulator or the 317(adjustable).
I found 13.6VDC a 'sweet spot' in my setup.

Really??? I gotta try later
Bum LM317 can supply 1.5A peak current only. Does T-amp drive more than that during loud passage?

Would a super regulator improves T-amp to next level?

Btw, both my T-amp also unmodded, except i change the coupling caps.

I have never made any attempts to measure the current drain/consumption of the T-Amp esp. during peak music level as at 4.2A I did not detect any 'clipping', so I assumed the current is more than sufficient.
I'd say 2A would be more than enough... +2A for additional 'headroom' in my case

which coupling cap that u change to?

my fren is selling his t-amp over in hifi4sale. rm380 with LDR volume control some more!

bro jazzy, did u get the LDR into your t-amp???

wps

Some cheapo caps get from JP

That T-amp belongs to your friend oh. Nice?

Yes I did! I did give feedback in the Lightspeed thread!

Jazzy prefer active preamp aka his 5687 tubey preamp

Interested to try out LDR sound, jazzy still keep yours?

i have not heard his t-amp lah, sorry.

this is his system:

made some changes since then.

wps

There is a higher current version of 7812, try search for 78S12, can supply up to 2A but double the price.

nice to see the thread kicking agian

nothing much on my side, got a last ta2020 mkIII which is abit off cosmetically, so i keep it and pair it with my pre-amp

i finish this long before the autumn festival but tht box was kept away for like 2 years




empty space on the right is ment for Meanwell PSU, fit in just nice, but it will get too hot right? make some holes at the bottom?


poor guy at the bottom is ta2024. vocal wise...he is the king

xtorm, nice mooncake box. My 2020 is kept in cold storage already, 2024 is still my choice, that little thing really kick arse.

haha its make of wood, don see those anymore

yea ta2024 really sound sweet, but im on my laptop for movies and mp3, ta2020 is more suitable, wait till i get my own place, currently not able to do proper placing for my speaker.

Keep what? The LDR? It's not mine. It belongs to gabanyayaya.

Any of your sifu or T-amp fans bought any pre assembled T-amp board from Ebay before? Looks like quite cheap over there.
As I know custom malaysia will impose tax on the amp with casing but not the pcb board and electronic parts.
The casing we know can improvise.
