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...

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!

Actually a well designed PC PSU can be used, subject to some mods, refinements and conditions.
1. Reputable brand thats not with missing parts inside (EMI filter components)
2. Remove parts of the circuit that output other misc voltages that you'd not use. You've to know the PSU circuitry of course and what to remove.
3. Change the DC output cables to a pair of thicker gauge ones.
4. Beef up the DC output circuitry with better parts and values.
There's other things you can do, afterall if the PSU is already FOC, its all to your savings.
I'm confident yoru FOC PSU after modding can likely outperform the Meanwell PSU, except the PC PSU is more bulky and there's a fan too.
Your choice.

too much work la bsl

Heh!.. need I say if you're always on the look out for the fun factor, nothing is really too much work.
Anyone got a BUSTED but BRANDED Coolermaster, Antec, Corsair 500W PSU to give me?.. I'll gladly accept it and of course I mod it and its for MY keeps??...

Hehe.. very true..
Too bad I do not have any.. just 'generic' ones that are busted.. those branded ones really last a long time!

bsl, you want 'em? One is 535W and the one is 460W

Enermax. Are they 'good'?

Can! can!. I hope it won't be a daunting task to revive them first.

probably "decent"..taiwan/china made. not same level as the american brands (which is also made in china) due to the BOM.
I believe BSL wants the PSU to be equipped with branded subcomponents used inside..
of which the BOM (bill of materials) would be made up of branded manufacturers..

'additional' work to replace those also by bsl...
