Just bought a EMU 1212M, will mod it soon

Recommended Posts

Creative selling 1212M for $369.

Cybermind in SLS list it for $359.

So I went down to Cybermind today.

While I was about to make payment, I ask the sales can lower the price a bit?

To my surprise, he give me $355, don't know such major shop also can bargain one.

If anyone is going to buy another 1212M, maybe can try $350.

 

Still evaluating the PCB to find out what all the caps are for, will post more details later.

Yes the squarish JRC 2068 is the dual opamp.

Two are used for DAC and 5 are used for ADC.

Each chip serves one channel, one opamp each for the +ve and -ve signal (0202 has balanced output)

 

all technical discussions that has nothing to do with the local context (like where to get modding parts here) pls post at

I screwed up one position, thus the funny flying wire.

huangyong,

I'll show it when I take my card out for phase 2 mod, which may take a while.

The pad surrounding each TTH hole is very small, and the surrounding plastic melt to form a sticky layer that stay sticky even after cooling down. So it's not really modding friendly.

 

av98m,

you are right, the F size (D=10mm H=11.5mm) OS-CON cost $2.50 each.

And the killing part is that the stock is extremly in complete, I have been force to use 680uF for places that I'm looking for 100uF.
