- nice amp cases
Context cases are nice, but be prepped to do your own ventilation which can be a huge time suck. Lansing are the nicest looking I've worked with so far (their finish on the Graybox series is outstanding) but their top and bottom plates are pretty light gage so be prepared to address those. Not a big deal, but something to consider. There is also Teko who caries some cases you'll recognize, but not the ones you're looking for unfortunately. Finally, Par Metals is hit or miss and the only way that I'd use them again is to order a painted chassis body with no face or back plates.- Any tax gurus?
deepak, I'd sit down with an accountant if you can. International income, based on what little I've heard from friends who've worked abroad, gets rather complicated.- nice amp cases
My experience, no way around the pickle. No one stateside (that I've found offers anything in the way of a chassis with integrated heat sinks. But, what I'd add to that is to say that even after paying the exorbitant shipping from Italy you'll still end up paying less than what you would for the same chassis made in the US.- Post the last thing you bought!
No, that's an extended warranty plan from Sinlgepower.- What are you listening to Part Two

Alan, I think that I posted the part number for those grommets in this thread, I'll look. Otherwise they are from McMaster Carr and can be found by searching for "vibration control grommets". I use them for mounting trafos and chokes because I don't care for metal to metal connections but they really are only required for the PS iron (if you're concerned about vibes). I realize that they end up requiring a bit more wiring (safety grounds for all the isolated components) but hey, you can't get something for nothing. And I use the standard black grommets to provide protection for wires that run through the chassis so anywhere you see one of those there's a wire chase from the component to the circuit below. And thanks for the kind words, I'm enjoying the SimpleSE right now.- Fuck in snow
Yup, still raining here but cold enough that nothing is melting. Clearing the driveway tomorrow morning is going to suck.- HD800? Another rumor?
I doubt they'll try to inflate demand like that. There may be supply issues regardless given the "hand built" nature of the product. I'm sure there's a limit to how many they can produce when pushed, heck if I know what that is.- I'M A MORON, LOOK AT THE PICTURES I CHOO-CHOO-CHOOSE TO POST
Oh, that's the original picture. I just changed the title.- Fuck in snow
It's mixing here in Portsmouth which means it's probably still snowing inland. The drive home should be entertaining...- HD800? Another rumor?
I don't think that you're translating his statement correctly. But I'm not qualified to speak for Tyll, I'd ask him directly for clarification since I'm betting Sennheiser will be doing everything within their power to provide as many HD800s as Tyll and others can sell and won't limit themselves to what they originally anticipated for demand.- What are you listening to Part Two

1. Two large aluminum heatsinks. 1 for a switchable dummy load for testing purposes, 1 for a unique SSMH build to use up some spare parts. 2. M-Audio Firewire Audiophile DAC (second time I've bought one). 3. Parts for repairs of various damaged amps.- slow forum
The composition and subjects are excellent but am I the only one who finds a lot of them horribly overexposed? Maybe that's what he's going for but many of them look blown out to me.- Quadro Graphics Cards/Pro Graphics Cards
It's been my experience that unless he'd be doing heavy 3D work just about any consumer VC is going to do just fine and he won't require anything special. What CAD does do, especially the more recent versions, is suck RAM like it's going out of style and hog the CPU. Even with that said I'd wager that anything with a couple gigs of RAM, a decent dual core processor and VC will serve him well.- Interesting DIY DACs?
Seemed like you were getting good advice in the thread.- Interesting DIY DACs?
I love folks who dismiss opamp based output stages without hearing it first.- My K1000 arrived today!
It's but a PM away posty.- Least favorite parts etc.
And Lucifer's own soldering iron. - nice amp cases
