Huffy 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2004 hi, interested in ordering a headphone amp..wondering if its ready for ordering.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Q00 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2004 Huffy, if u read the first post, this is a proposal, its a kit still in development. Another thing to note is that this is gonna be sold in kit form, you have to build it yerself. If u wanna get a ready-made amp yer gonna have to approach one of our diy builders to build one for you.

tropicalrips 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2004 (edited) Thanks for the tips tropicalrips! I have just ordered the samples as well Need your advice how to solder them to a brown dog adapter i didn't use Browndog adaptors for the surface component i use a dip8 IC holder updated pics Edited July 29, 2004 by tropicalrips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bpribadi 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2004 Wow !!! Very neat !!! Did you use your C8080 to shoot those pics? If yes, your C8080 super macro is really good Thanks for the tips! I will try it when the IC delivered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will try it when the IC delivered. yes super macro shot with C8080, i actually shot further away then crop out the subject the op-amp is actually "floating" above the IC holder cause the legs will shot each other if u solder them directly onto the holder, u'll need to build the "legs" on the IC holder first, good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2004 We appreciate your enthusiasm guys, however, please wait for either jasonhanjk or tropicalrips to make the appropriate announcement when the DIY kit is ready & made available to all. Do also bare in mind that they are doing this on their own free time, not on a full time basis and that they have lives outside of SGH. If you cannot wait then please refer to the updated first post on the first page of this thread for the list of components for your to acquire & schematics for you to try building it yourself.

I just got those AD chips, wow, with TNT express, less than a week since ordering Thanks a lot Analog Device !!! It was the most difficult soldering, and after an hour I found the technique, and after another 1.5 hours, here they are, ready to make music I haven't put them in the 8 pin socket. I plan to make another CMoy with those AD8620s, so I think I will solder them directly to the PCB. That should make it sounds better isn't it While the AD8610 is for my coming PPA For those who interested, I wrote how I did it here: http://www.sgheadphones.net/index.php?showtopic=2476 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
