  1. i'm planning for Meta42/PPA now just looking at the parts the tangent site says 50k for the meta, so will the 20k work? i remember seeing somewhere that anything from 10-50k will work for the Cmoy
  2. thanks jason for the volume pot, can i use other values? like 20k found the Blue Alps volume pot in SLS, but its a 20k one, cost about $35
  3. turbo-thirty? it can charge the cell indivigually its also a discharger has a printer to print a report on the cell perforamce during the charging/discharging process but it will also burn a big hole in your wallet
  4. i think i should throw away what i know from RC racing we always discharge our cells to get the max punch from them, and we use up the 2000mAH in 5mins, u can cook an egg on the batt when its fully drain from a race guess that doens't work for Cmoy
  5. one last pic still need to trim off the volume control shaft...
  6. used valco to hold the MP3 player and the Cmoy together, now they are like one single unit
  7. made some improvements to the project, changed all the resistors to 1% type, also change the the input plug to a right-angle type. anyone knows where to find switchcraft 1/8 stereo right-angle plug locally?
  8. its Ni-MH but i think its still safer to discharge them before recharging, they are not cheap i'm looking for something thats more "high end" not just a row of light bulbs to drain the 9v i think the battery will last longer if we discharge them to a certain voltage before recharging, it will also make them perform better (learn this racing RC cars high performance 7.2v batt)
  9. i think the local Zalman distributor is in SLS, should be on the third floor if i remember correctly, back lanes, just go 1 round of the back lanes u should be able to see them they hav a lot of Zalman fan products on display behind the glass, if they don't hav it, i think u can forget about asking the PC dealers
  10. anyone knows how to build a discharger for a single 9v battery? i need a simple circuit to discharge the 9v batt used in a Cmoy before recharging it, can anyone help, this should be quite simple for u guys
  11. can find in SLS Hung Bros i think the retail price is $89
  12. kenshinz, i think u hav the same problem as me, wrong resistor values i only hav 2 different values on my board, 4.7k and 10k, the 10k is the R4 and the rest are all using 4.7K. i think the gain is too much with these values, but its sounds ok with my MP3 player, but its too lough when using line out on my discman
  13. yep, there not enough room for the jacks on the case, i use the smallest case i can find that will fit a 9v batt and the board together. the portas sound more controlled with the amp, slightly reduced bass & more bright. the volume knot is the smallest i can find in SLT , i think the shaft can be cut to reduce the lenght
  14. did not hav to use the rail-spilter, i think i will try it when i change a new board, need to redo the wiring
  15. all the problems were caused by the op-amp, everthing work fine when i put in a new op-amp
  16. should not be a problem will hav porta pro alone to compare
  17. what will that do to the headphone & amp?
  18. i'm hoping they sound close to the the porta-pros or better, u think its possible? i saw the EW9 is only 29ohms kind of unusual for a portable, most are 32ohms & the CM7Ti only 16 ohms
  19. can't help it i lov AT woodies Dougles at Hung Bros agree to let me test them when they arrive hav been asking him everyday since
  20. some new models from AT, comments anyone? mini woodies ATH-EW9 the disc-brakes ATH-EM9 Titanium sticks ATH-CM7TI i think they are all not in SG yet, anyone hav price on them?
  21. saw this in SLS today, "Naim Audio" , only know its a headphone amp, but it does not hav any model number on it. it comes in 2 modules, an amplifier module to plug in your headphone with a volume control and a power module to supply it with power, i can't find it on their website Naim Audio is it a DIY amp? cause it looks like a Headroom amp, i expect most consumer amps to at least hav a model number printed on it, but this one just hav "Naim Audio" printed in front
  22. whats a "bed rig" N@Z ? a setup for listening on the bed? an amp build into the bed?
