Re: It didn't explode....... YET (aka niges amp)

Just to be clear the diode is in series of the positive out of the reg Voltage setting must allow for the voltage drop on the diode Lower voltage drop diodes are preferable Also this voltage drop acts as as a current limiter of sorts but as caps start at 0v it will draw max current until the voltage...

Re: It didn't explode....... YET (aka niges amp)

.............. THE BIG QUESTION remains: do I simply wire up two assemblies - a 26650 with a 3.3 volts regulator/charger along with a supercaps at approximately approx. 1.9 volts regulator/charger and then put them in series? This is where I get concerned. I do not see a DC-DC converter at less tha...

Re: Soekris Dam Dac

fpga caps replacement and isolator removal would be a good bet,
maybe some fpga caps that dont melt can be as good
i just accepted i might burn or drop more than a few of the pps

Re: Soekris Dam Dac

Rms voltage out Will be proportionally less
At 3.3v

Two cells is the minimum you can use
You can add as many in parallel as u like
Or one/2/3/4 for each bank of shift registers
But I wouldn't expect much improvement adding more cells if any

Re: Computer Audio Blasphemy, nige tries Another SD Card Player

Was wondering since if the fact that we are not using these small decoupling caps on these remote clocks would degrade performance. 100nf-1uf np0 ceramic or some of the plastics pps or acrylic should be a decent bet to try as bypass caps whether it will yield improvement will be up to experiment pr...

Details here on what I did. https://sites.google.com/view/randy-audio-stuff/sd-player Haven't listened very much yet, but I'm pretty impressed with what I've heard so far. May be my imagination, but seems quieter, like there i...

Re: Computer Audio Blasphemy, nige tries Another SD Card Player

Should be a decent lift with the better clocks

So computer audio is obsolete
