  1. It's okay for me.. I get special prices from Hung Brothers.. =)
  2. You can get the Neutrik/ Rean connectors from Hung Brothers.
  3. 2 Nicely made 1m pairs of Klotz GY107 cables with Rean (Neutrik) connectors using Cardas Quad Eutectic Silver Solder.. Those who have bought cables/ amps from me can attest to my workmanship. See the following picture to see how they'd look like: Edit: Forgot to include pricing.. LOL.. They're going for S$20/ pair.
  4. Still have spare runs of GY107 & extra Rean connectors.. Those interested in a pair can PM me..
  5. I guess I'm one of the first in the world to privately own a copy of this. The official release date is 23rd May.. Bought this 2 hours after it was delivered to the shop.. Yay!!
  6. Makings of a simple cable.. Put it together: Solder the joints: Fit the barrels back on and your in business!
  7. Taken in, of all places, Bugis.. ;p Shot with a 35mm, F2.4 Zeiss Flektogon MC on Ilford FP4 Plus film.
  8. What price point are you looking at? I might be able to help..

    New Pimeta

    Get the BF245C. It will provide sufficient current even if you're using the AD843 opamp.

    Then pay for the $1 Jfets.. It's only $0.69 more and it's not like you need 100 pieces..
  11. CS8414. TDA1543, last I heard, is still available from SLT for less than $5 a pop.

    Op Amps Cheap

    No pricebreaks for the OPA2227? LOL.. J/king.. Quite interested to get 20 pieces though..

    If you're looking for the isolation rail JFET's, then they're not suitable. If you're looking for Class A biasing JFET's, they're usable in the PPA board. Farnell is out of 2N5486's?? /me looks at his Farnell bag with 25 pieces of 2N5486's..

    New Pimeta

    Get them off Tangent then.. They're pretty cheap there, I've got a set of 4 pieces of 2N5484's for US$1 from his online shop before.
  15. More pictures.. Hehe.. The underside of the board.. The red insulated piece is a wire, the rest including the white insulated part are all component leads.. I'm trying to take point-to-point wiring to the extreme! Cutting up the ground plane for use: Drill out the holes and fit it on! Bend the leads and solder!!
  16. Finally.... Someone who actually remembers the movie..
  17. Not quite complete.. Still got to drill holes for the groundplane.. 99% wired P2P, only 3 pieces of wires were used to bridge points on the board. All 3 for power regulators to circuit. All other points were jointed using the component leads!
  18. Still a good idea to remove the LED and accompanying resistor.. I suspect that the LED is powered from a 12v DC-DC convertor of sorts... That might be the source of the problem... These charge-pump convertors are switching power supplies of sorts.. Can cause a fair bit of power pollution..
  19. Amp your E888LP's.. That's the trick to get clearer sound and tighter, deeper bass out of them.. I own them and have used them with amps before.. Very very good sound but have always been too lazy to build a portable amp for them.. Haha..
  20. It won't and can't deviate much.. The design is rather simple and I'm not going to be using worse parts.. In fact, some of the parts are better like Holco's & Cardas GRFA & Neutrik Locking Jacks. Most of the XP7's & RA-1's sonics come from a well thought out KISS design..
  21. You wish.. Haha.. Actually... Depends on my mood tomorrow.. LOL.. Teaser shot.. Half the power supply:
  22. Drivers are fine since they're sort of sealed.. I used a blower and cloth to clean up most of the foam-dust.. The velvet is fine.. I even have a 4 year old pair of pads.. It's the foam that disintegrates.. I can sort of understand how the pads for CD3K's can cost that much.. S$50 for a pair of pads on a S$700 headphones is quite different from S$40 for a pair of pads on a S$175 headphones. The equivalent would be replacement pads for the CD3K's costing ~S$200. And imagine if you had to change them twice..
  23. It may be cheaper from them but if you live in other parts of Sg, the difference in transportation costs might make up the difference.. LOL..
