  1. Hello all, Sorry to open an old thread, but just my opinion to follow!!! I now own both Shure E2C's and E4C's. Personally, i now use the e2c's myself, I dont think the E4's are worth the extra money!!! Matt
  2. Hi, I think on-off popping might just be a feature of the amp. There is no output isolation to stop this effect. I think it is assumed by most to disconnect your cans whilst switching on and off with the volume at minimum, then connect cans. Hope this helps Matt
  3. No, shures aren't a must. I'm very happy to hear any suggestions. Just this type of IEM really. Matt
  4. I'm looking for some good quality sound isolating headphones. Just wondering if people think that the e2c will be sufficiently good quality or whether it is worth paying the vast premium for the e5c.
  5. Cost of parts for me in the UK is £30.48GBP from Farnell excluding the PCB and case. This is about $53.49USD or $90.44SGD!
  6. Damn, I cant even get parts that cheap in the UK!
  7. Guess im more annoyed with myself really after having ruined my last board!! Matt
  8. Are there any more of these still available. I've PM'ed tropicalrips, but no reply as yet. Will need shipping to the UK aswell. Thanks Matt
  9. Thanks for the advice jason. I check the pot with a multimeter, it's resistance still varies correctly. At 9v, it was working perfectly, except when you turned it up high with the Sennheiser HD580's the bass would clip dreadfully. The 12v was from a computer power supply, I know, probably not the best choice. Now the left channel doesnt work at all. The only sound you get out of it is when the right is distorted, there is a faint sound. I'm waiting on some new op-amps to try now, just realised how hard it is to remove them when soldered, so some sockets are coming too. I think i may have pulled the PTH out of one of the holes so may need a new board now. If whoever still has supplies could led me know cost, including shipping to the UK. Matt
  10. you can get them from Farnell http://sg.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/par...?SKU=149846&N=0 the product id is 149846 wherever you live
  11. Hi All, Have just built my cMoy2 amp. Was all going great, first time worker, until i used 12v instead of 9v. Parts I used 2x 1000uf 16v Pana's 5x 63v 1uf Wima Poly's 2x OPA2134 1x LM6171 8x 10kR 1% 0.4w 2x 10R 1% 0.4w 1x 50k log pot Now, my left channel doesnt work. Only sound you get out of it is when turning the volume up to full, and then very faint left, whilst very distorted right. I'm in the UK, so sourcing parts is fairly hard, Maplin is a joke, Farnell is decent but £20 min order. Is there any way to check the amp with a multimeter to find out which component is kaput?? I soldered my opamps instead of socketing, and ive lost my solder sucker, compressed air seems to work quite well tho. Any help will be much appreciated. Back of Amp Top of Amp Thanks in advance Matt
