yeah, a very nice thermal adhesive too. I bought them from here: http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/swmcbgamera.html I tried a few different ones out and found these to test the best. After cryo'ing the heatsink, you'll get about -.0001 C/W better as well. It's definitely worth it.

capsule form? that's the real stuff...

heh I like those heatsinks... beats the hell outta the Mouser / Digikey stuff.. I have some D2PAK form MOSFETs in my phonostage that could really use them. Nelson Pass had these mounted under the PCB and against the case and I didn't realize that until I finished my layout... yeah, they get real hot. Hint: video card / BGA chip overclockers make cool stick-on heatsinks.

Maybe markl should try the HA-02: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f5/tube-y-tube-amp-owners-need-loaner-singlepower-woo-260560/ :rofl:

very strange. I ran that combo for a while without any problem. How much gain does your linestage have?

pj: Did you ever write up a proper comparison of the Bugle to your new setup? I'd be surprised if it was 10000% better myself... I think the Bugle can really hang.. Then again, I don't care for SUTs really...

I wonder if I could add some Dynamat to the chips as well ..................

fftt.. he doesn't even use Dynamat. If I was going to use something, I'd use bituman sheets. I've used these for speaker damping and they kick the crap outta any other damping sheets. They are quite heavy, so it would make the customers feel like they're getting more for their money.

lol... in all seriousness, this copper foil EMI/RFI tape from 3M is pretty sweet. I haven't tried it on any opamps, but the DACs I've used it (such as the TDA1543 in the picture) on I can definitely tell a difference. Here's a link to some general information. I plan on trying it to my PPAv2 opamps soon and will report back.

I'd probably build one of these: http://www.tubelab.com/Headphone.htm

you've heard of the Stax fart... now presenting.... the Stax lobotomy

maybe I should make stick them all on a cmoy... kinda like a cmoy UPS.

markl marce Mods Due to popular demand, I am now offering to perform the modifications I developed for the D5000 (and D2000) on your Denons. M

Looks like enough for one channel or so .... of a balanced amp. need to scrounge the couch cushions for change to buy caps for the other 3 channels.

I'm staring a rumor that you use Ray Samuel Audio cables ....

RSA cables

Muse does ... :prettyprincess:

what kind of caps are flanking the tube?

damn, you beat me to it

nice! There are some Kitamua Kiden r-cores on Ebay, but I cannot figure out their specs... so, I ordered a pair of custom wound for 2 projects I'm working on

I did I miss my K340 now

wow, I called this first guys.. post #6. Quoted above.

how very helpful! thank you so, so, so, very much!

now, what would be funny as hell if markl got a new stand in the "male"..... I think a modified peppermill would do the trick...

I wanted to touch your BT clone
