  1. I have not heard Dt990 act. But reviews looks promising. Def going to try them out if Im buying.

     

    As for D2000, I have read its a good phone too but not exactly audiophile phone? Is there any shops around in Sg that sells D2000?

    I did not really consider it as I dont know of any shops in Sg that sells it. The price is act cheaper than dt990 from where Im getting, <400SGD.

     

    Have anyone heard both before??


  2. hahaha. You guessed correctly. Im done with the amp alr. Managed to Assemble it in a few hours. Works perfectly now, Jus without the case. Not bad for my first amp. Hehe :D I got all my parts from farnell.

     

    I have to say. This amp is awesome man. Both in terms of topology and sq, AND VALUE. Its amazing for the price. Thou I'd def prefer more bass from it :)

     

    Btw, those who have not built it, thermal compound is def needed! The op amp and regulator gets rather warm(hot) esp when running off 12V DC. And the battery compartment is small, better check if it fits before buying.


  3. Hi Guys, you all still interested in the above kit? I emailed Jeff from glassjaraudio and got a reply from him (below)

     

    Soha lvl 2 kit (119.85) + shipping/kit (30) = 149.85 (SGD226.87)

    As far as i can see, there's only 3 interested parties including myself. Still wanna go thru with the buy even if it's just the 3 of us? If you are, than I'll be contacting Jeff again to ask about shipping fees for 3 kits (non priority, should be cheaper i think).

     

    Ezzo, just curious, the shipping price of US$23.10 was quoted with or without the transformer?

     

    I have gotta myself another amp, so I wldnt be starting this group buy.

    You can request for the order form, which states the price of everything. The price on the website actually includes US shipping, which is 10USD, so dont be mistaken. The shipping is for the whole kit, weighs 3pounds. That price is probably the cheapest for that weight.


  4. Just to make my point. There is a typo in my last post. I meant "know-nothing-nowhere-but-singapore". I am not talking about the government meaning it was an example actually.

    Well, if you are not talking about the government then I have no idea what you are talking about, really.

    To have a rebate here in this forum is probably not a good idea either. You mods are sure hardworking.

    Well done :)


  5. Absolute0, I do not get what you are trying to say, but do not explain.

     

    I am not talking about the government. I am talking about the forum, too many rules defies the purpose of a forum, whats a forum for.

    Regarding what you said, it is typical no-nothing-but-singapore view.

     

    Well, I dont care :)


  6. Agreed, Nonsense.

     

    Singapore is a small country and deals are very probably all carried out in with meetings in person, Cash On Delievery, so risks of getting cheated is rather small.

     

    However, on Head-fi, its a totally different thing. There are so many people around, and the country is so big, even international sales. The deal goes, the buyer pays the seller, then the seller ships the good. But how can the buyer determine the quality of the good? No way. Pictures? Na, it doesn't work.

     

    So the way to determine the quality on Head-fi is by reputation. You would definately trust someone who have 100+ post than one with less than 50 posts. Therefore, there is such a rule on Head-fi.

     

    Sgheadphone? We all can check on the goods in real before we even pay the seller. Any risk would be greatly reduced.

    And anyway, not like there is a lot of complains/junk threads regarding the classified section :)

     

    After all, this IS a forum, for us to talk yea.

    Rules rules rules, you sound like the Sg government. Fine next?

    Jus kidding :D


  7. Yeaa, you sure did put in a lot of effort mouz! :D

     

    Just have something to suggest, based IMO.

    The hammond case which the PCB is designed for have two designs.

     

    The FIRST one with all plastic front/end panels that cups the case in the front and back alittle (its rather hard to describe).

    So lets say, trying to fix the panels of one would be like:

    Front panel - Case - End panel

     

    The SECOND design has Al panels instead, flat Al panels, but they are not screwed on directly onto the case. It has the plastic front and end panels (like the previous design) and works the same. BUT, the plastic panels are hollow, that means the flat Al panels covers the hollow part of the plastic cover.

     

    And it would be like this:

    Al panel - Plastic panel - CASE - Plastic panel - Al panel

     

    (front and end panels are the same for both design)

     

    Sorry for such long description, just trying to make things easy for those who have not seen the hammond case. Hope everyone understand what I'm trying to say :)

     

    SO, the question is, is it possible for to work on the Al panels that comes with the case?

     

    IMO, I prefer the original hammond panels to the one design by AMB, it gives the amp a 'fuller' look. A fine example of the original Hammond case(with plastic panels) is the mSeed Spirit Amp.

     

    What do you guys think?
