Actually I cannibalize a Denon and Onkyo amp yesterday and got some parts out to use. I have change one of the pot for my friend's ailling JP pot. These pot still work well and I'm confident that I wont encounter same problem as JP pot (maybe I'm in bad luck). As for the transformer, it looks big and "solid" and would be a waste to throw it away..the smoothing caps is rated 50V, so I think the transformer secondary voltage should be around 40V?? Lets see if there is any use for other future projects or just keep in store...

3V and above for white and blue and pure greens, InGAN dice

for red and amber/yellow, 2V-2.2V should be more than enuf.. or else poooofff....

ar188,
I need some! Some blue ones would be nice! This is for my 'new' amp..

a 40V tranny would be a good candidate to power a GainClone!

xtorm, ya see you there, give me a sms when you are leaving, i can be there in 15min.

I want to build a few RCA and phono cable, i only need it in short length, anyone know where can i get belden or canare or mogami? Or you have some to let go? i only need around 3m of each.

sure.. 5mm 3mm SMD 1206 or 0805s?

can demo your amp ar? I bring my AE near-field bookshelfs to test test.. hehe!

kww,
I have seen belden and canare in JP but not mogami. I need to make a few interconnects too.. time to drop by JP

ar188,
the 3mm would be sufficient.
Sure, can drop in anytime (I am on leave) as long as you bring over those LEDs!

AE bookshelves.. that would an interesting speaker to 'test'...

jazzy, which shop? I seen some belden 85xx series speaker cable before 2 yr ago but not RCA or phono cable.

jazzy, how big are your JP pots, the diameter of the back cover. 12mm 16mm etc? see if got any surplus 50k Log scale ones for you..

Will have to wait till I finish with the t-amp casing and also another t-amp with discrete...

Currently I have 2x 50K pots. They're 16mm ones.. don't know if they're linear or log.. Will check later...

I can't really remember where.. hehe.. I bought my Canare from the shop right at the end of JP, LHS.

Jazzy, do you remember how much and model? I heard from friend L2T2S is good. But i never audit before. Any opinion?

kmm,
off hand can't remember exactly,sorry dude. They're about RM9 per meter.

Can a computer PSU be used to power up the T-amp?

yes, as long as 12v dc

Definitely can!
My Jr. is using a spare computer's PSU to power his T-Amp...

Ok then. I have two comp. PSU. If anybody wants to have them, let me know. I think they're rated 400 watts. Else, I'll just throw them away. Err.. they're faulty though

grandspy,
the Meanwell SMPS looks better and 'cuter' with adjustable voltage!

definitely cuter..and available in wide single voltage range and formfactors...
besides no need 350W to 500W monster computer PSUs with fans and dangling cables...

thats right ar188! computer's psu is real messy!
