  1. i dont need the exactly same part. just one that will fit the socket on the curcuit board. any shops to recommend in simlim tower?

     

    thanks

     

    J1 and J2, hard to get and long lead time at mouser. how many do you need?

     

    i may have extra but I need to check my inventory first :party:


  2. All,

    For order of the panels, we will start another group buy later.

     

    For any orders of components from Digikey or Mouser. It is quite difficult to organise this as some people will prefer some components over others. What I will do will be to place what I will order for myself, in another group buy and if you want exactly the same set of components, you can participate. How's that? Otherwise, my head will spin at the possible combinations.

     

    Regards

     

    Sounds good to me.

     

    Please add me for y1/y2 each 1 set.


  3. Mouser price is cheaper by S$1 if we order 5 units but out of stock and lead time is 2 weeks

     

    Mouser Pricing (SGD)

    1: $18.68

    5: $15.80

    10: $14.63

    25: $13.68

    50: $13.47

     

    Farnell Pricing (SGD)

    Qty List Price

    1 S$18.34

    5 S$16.89

    10 S$15.61

    25+ S$14.16

     

    by default i assume those expressed interest will go for the black box from Farnell (pricing refer post #1)

     

    now we have :

     

    mouz - 1 black

    stephenchung - 1 black

    duck in the box - 1 black

    blippster - 1 black

    adn6244 - 2 black

    total 6 units

     

    if you decided to pull out please let me know by end of tuesday. I'll place the order and hopefully we get everything in before end of next week.


  4. bro, one of those interested backed out so left 4 guys, doubt we can get that discount for the enclosures now man...

     

    I may want to order 2 enclosure cause I still have one spare Mini3 board to build so if anyone interested can leave the name first and I'll consolidate.

     

    Bro, placing ur order for the PCB set? :)

     

    I'll take one set of pcb + all updated components that you have listed. Pardon my laziness for not pasting the list here again :grin:

     

     

    ok guys. just a suggestion.

    unless you guys are going to have one person buy all the components together and then split them. its more convenient to buy all the components yourself from farnell together with the enclosure, thats because if your order is over $30 shipping is waived. unless you wanna save $2 bucks and go through the hassle.

     

    Agree and I don't mind to order all the components + enclosure from farnell and split but I need help on getting the complete BOM. Really have no time to check and compile the BOM myself.

     

    Also mouz already mentioned that there are parts that you need to order in qty of 10 and it's a waste of money for those who may not need the parts in the near future. Although some parts are not expensive even in qty of 10...well we still have time until mouz order the pcb :thumbup::whistle:

     

     


  5. No point ordering the enclosure if I can't get the PCB man, so far only 2 of us has placed orders in the group buy. Still waiting for the other interested parties to place orders. Prob gonna let it run til Monday, if it's just the 2 of us, u still interested in getting the PCB?

     

    My bad bro...I'll update the GB thread :grin:


  6. Hello...

     

    Leave your name here if you are interested to join the group buy.

     

    Found 2 recommended enclosure in amb site but since we may want to laser cut our own face plate, Hammond 1455C801 with aluminium face plate will be out of our scope.

     

    Recommended enclosure is Hammond 1455C802

     

    Pricing from farnell :

    Silver colour

    Qty List Price

    1 - 4 S$18.97

    5 - 9 S$17.47

    10 - 24 S$16.15

    25+ S$14.65

     

    Black colour

    Qty List Price

    1 - 4 S$18.34

    5 - 9 S$16.89

    10 - 24 S$15.61

    25+ S$14.16


  7. enclosure get from digikey/farnell/mouser.

    like what mouz said, he will not be providing the full kit as it is too messy.

    faceplate i bought from AMB himself. the current face plates are selling at 40USD i bought at 20USD so that was ok for me.

     

     

    I can organise the group buy for enclosure. Will create a new thread to check how many interested. I'll try to find out which vendor offer more discount if we buy more.

     

     


  8. Tentatively, it's just USD12 for the PCB but I'm considering adding stuff not easily available from farnell and RS like PCM2707PJT and WM8501, need to look at the BOM again and let you guys know again. If just this 3, price will be USD21.30 without shipping. Depending on the weight of the shipping, cost varies, AMB uses USPS. If package stays below 1 pound, its USD23/pound for shipping.

     

    Considering how volatile the currency rate is, cost will vary quite a bit too.

     

    mouz,

    how about using vpost? Base charge is abt S$13+ plus shipping fees by weight minimum S$4+. amb will ship to vpost address at less than US$10 so add up still slightly cheaper. IF..la...If you are shipping other stuff from USA, the combined costs may be cheaper.

     

    I do online purchase from time to time and if the timing of this order coincide with my purchase, I may be able to help with the order and vpost shipment. :grin:

     

     

    what is SMD soldering? can I buy the tools and learn?

     

    I dont mind buy few tools to learn.

     

    Bro,

    google will help u with some basic informations HERE

     

    This is a good article that I found when I first started into DIY soldering. May have better reference but I find it good enough for my usage.


  9. Anything that's open will leak like a b*tch. Other than ANC7 you can also try the Goldring NS1000, sounds much more warmer & mellow than the ANC7.

    I think it's around $400, slightly off your budget.

     

    Time to make a trip to Stereo :smoke: Saw someone posted a classified add for $250 to sell off a rarely used Goldring NS1000...not sure still available. :sweat:
