    Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

    Your link didn't work for me but Sachu is a really great guy to deal with, I would recommend getting it from him and maybe the power supply boards he does too. His advice and communication was first class when I built mine. The boards arrived very quickly from India to the UK and they are made...

    Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

    Got the CNC and OPS finished and working last night (late!). Properly wired to RCA connectors and all in a case. 12v AC wall wart no problems at all, as MKane said, quiet as a graveyard. I did seem to get a little more high range (pops and clicks came back a bit) changing to the OPS. I had felt...

    Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

    My wall warts are supposed to arrive tomorrow, I should take it easy now I've got the CNC working (try and do a proper job!). Your avatar caught my eye, wild guess at some sort of yamaha 2 stroke, possibly 350 pre ypvs? I've got a basket case TZR250 taking up yard space which I'll probably never...

    Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

    Going to one of answer my own questions now. I've been a bit upside down on the input loading so the problem I've been having is with the 62K resistor. Found out why the volume drops off when it's engaged, I've fitted a 61.9Ohm resistor which I ordered as an extra in case I wanted extra gain for...

    Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

    Hi,, thanks for the welcome. I ordered the terminal blocks last night but didn't have them in my first order as I couldn't find the pitch (which I think is 5mm from my measurements). I tried twisted insulated (stranded not solid) first time round and it seemed to be very effective as an aerial...

    Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

    Yes, midnight soldering! I had a few attempts with different co-ax but didn't have the sockets for the enclosure so some of my early joints broke because the wire is free floating. Typical of my style that I couldn't wait to hear it so had to cannibalise some leads etc. At my age I should have...

    Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

    It's a bit embarrassing considering the rest of projects on this page but I've just finished my first CNC. Well, I've got it working! The enclosure and connections are a work in progress. Loving the sound already. A picture tells a thousand words, so I'll try and post one. No real problems...
