Rebar/steel is more then enough to create a Faraday cage and it doesn't mess as much with your head. I use dedicated lines but there are also quite a few solid silver PC's here...

While I'm not a great believer in the plating on the AC plug making a huge difference I've spent some time testing AC cords and they do make a difference in some cases. The problem is all our own doing with all these switch mode supplies, wi-fi and etc. sending a lot of noise back onto the mains which the gear can pick up. Then there are the issues many are facing, even with 20 year old electrical systems, the wiring wasn't designed to handle the load of a modern home and often the grounding scheme is a joke. One solution is to just throw a shit load of money at bling cables or rather just fix the problem, either with isolation transformers or dedicated lines.

Nahh that's only about 20%... the rest is ice cool from the glaciers.

Why do you use aluminum over there in the colonies? The only thing we are allowed to use here for in-wall wiring is 16-18AWG solid core copper.

Besides color and the finish on the plastic, they are all identical. There could be some small changes to the baffle though but I'm just not sure.

It's alright Marc, we all know about your current calculations... Too soon??

Something like 150-200w. In case you are wondering... this is a serious headphone amp.

Looking good Doug!!!

Tape FTW!!!

They shouldn't be run for long periods with out a load but it is ok to run them once and a while like that.

Hogwash!!!!

I've never encountered the dreaded squeal but it could be due to the close proximity of the wires in the cable entry. You can try adding some heatshrink to them to see if it makes any difference.

Nahh I'm still going with crazy... Needs moar silver!! Why not ask Mikhail about it...? I'm sure he could use the cash...

Good move as I really don't have fond memories of my old BH arriving with the BG's pushed into the chassis... \ What color did you choose my crazy elephant friend?

If both amps use the same rail voltages and the PSU can cope with the load I see no reason why you can't use a single PSU to power both amp sections, one at a time. The loop out is just another set of sockets wired in parallel.

Billable Hours

Just got one as well.

Superglue FTW!!!!

Have a great day, honorable keeper of the Wiki.

It's rather "hver er pabbi?"

Could be Italian as well but "pabbi" means dad or daddy in Icelandic.

It's not that bad really, a little charring on the finger and I'm still a bit numb but that's about it. What I'm angry about is not realizing that the B+ would also be on the delay relay terminals...

Woke up, went to work, got home early to work on some of my amps. While setting up a PSU I accidentally zapped my thumb with 350+v. There is a burn mark and everything and I still haven't tested the PSU. Here's hoping I won't be zapped again...
