spritzer

I'd be happy to store it. Plenty of space here!!

I think Kerry needs a proper reflow oven...

In other news, I just got some used HE90 drivers for my frames. I don't think the electrostatic museum is complete without an Orpheus... They have some slight channel imbalance which I'll have to look into but I think they are mostly made out of glass as Senn always stated. Gold plated diaphragm is likely BS but the black plate which holds the drivers is certainly glass and it has the same edge finish as the stators. The spacers are clear though so might be some form of plastic. Thanks. The team did just receive a hero's welcome with the downtown area full of people. http://www.ruv.is/frett/sjadu-otrulegar-mottokur-a-arnarholi That's a lot of people... Yup...he's probably right... My issue is the utter stupidity of not adhering to the standard set by Stax. King Sound certainly made their own cables and sockets, it's just too bad they suck so bad. Stick with the 1200Vppss standard. If Stax have been able to do so since 1982 how come they can't do it?

The spacer is certainly too thick or the stator design is completely wrong.

Ouch...that is not good!! The King Sound were some of the worst electrostatics I've ever tried. They tick virtually every box in the "wtf were the thinking" list.

I'm sure you can also find something on Aliexpress for a fraction of that price.

Also check out the Electromod page in the UK with the weak pound these days.

The black color does hide the terrible layout and lack of a ground plane...

No, nothing commercial. I have some modules here that are 12VDC to ~230VDC and they can be placed into a +/- setup but this stuff is rare. Also not anything like TKD Lambda quality.

The cables don't have a serial number

You can get great stuff made in China, no doubt about that. That being said, having reworked some Cavalli PCB's they are the cheapest crap Imagineering offer. Assembly is clearly done in China and probably testing as well (notice the test header on the PCB) but that is all automated. The parts chosen and the design matter a whole lot more.

A two channel super symmetry dynalo would fit in that chassis with SMD parts.

But you just install a switch which grounds the - input for SE. Hell, just make two XLR plugs with pins 1 and 3 tied internally.

Yeah but the LC was intended as a gateway drug so if you buy another amp then you get a discount, hence the numbers are much lower. Also how many have or will be returned for servicing due to the crap design? All of this adds massively to the cost.

I know...

Why are you using the phase splitter? This isn't a Cavalli amp, there is no need for it.

If you have minimal running costs then 700K at a decent markup (kinda on the excessive side for the LC...) but we know that this is really the third Cavalli Audio as he's run it into the ground two times. He always needs new investment to stay afloat so the running costs clearly aren't low. Also how many of those units resulted in massive discounts on other items and thus last revenue?

I think it is tied to the servo but I can't be sure. Too lazy to look for the schematics...

It think this is a quirk of the CCS or something like that as my Carbon's don't do this. Stax still use it to this day in the 727. It's long been out of production though.

Including our ears!!!

Don't get me started on that drivel but we are indeed ready and waiting!!! We have a fabulous viking ship...

Of course it does, we don't need no stinkin' mosfets!!

We are vikings so anybody falling down without an actual reason for doing so would be laughed out of town.

They did good but it shows how important it is to have the right mindset for this.
