JimL Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 BTW, are the new amp boards going to have provision for substitutes for the (apparently) out of print 2SA1468s?
s_r Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 You mean the STN9360? Pretty sure that's always been an option on the kgst boards.
JimL Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 Doh! As Emily Latella would say, "Never mind!"
G600 Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 If it's about 100$, I'm firmly replying for one set. Thanks for the offer !
Earspeakers Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Posted February 17, 2015 Hi Folks, I've been out with one of the nasty flues the last week. Will be getting a quote and pulling this together this week.
Earspeakers Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Posted February 22, 2015 OK here's the tally so far, check if I have everybody interested DefQon s_r Cucera Tachikoma mwl168 Gokury JimL (2) particleman14 G600 sorenb 14 boards total with three for me With maybe's (I'm not counting in atm) b0bb? insanity? chiguy?
Earspeakers Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Posted February 22, 2015 i'm a maybe OK, but FYI I'm not counting the maybe's, as I have to get a quote to try and find the best price. If you decide to turn that to a yes then there may not be a spot for you folks. DefQon s_r Cucera Tachikoma mwl168 Gokury JimL (2) particleman14 G600 sorenb 14 boards total with three for me Maybe/Uncounted b0bb insanity chiguy mypasswordis
mwl168 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 I am a maybe - again depending on the cost.
insanity Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Same for me. If the cost is reasonable, I'm still in for a set.
s_r Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Depending on price I may want more than one set.
DefQon Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 Depending on price I may want more than one set. This. The end be all decision for me is *Drums rolling* The price for a set!
Earspeakers Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Posted February 23, 2015 OK let's just make it simple, $90/board set, thats for a PSU and two amp boards, includes shipping and PayPal fees.
JimL Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 Sounds good, I've already collected about 1/2 of the parts. By the way, I should only be in for 1 board set.
insanity Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 Sorry I am out. Can't justify buying a backup set of boards at 90$. sorry.
bdrew Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 I will firmly commit to one board set, thanks.
Remolon Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 I have been looking at Seeed (lately, I order from them) and the quote that I get for 15 units, 15cmx15cm maximun, 2 layer, 2 oz. is 121.23$, and 175.06$ for 30. So the total amount for 30 amp boards plus 15 PSU is 296.29$ (plus shipping). That is 19,75$/set of 2 amps + 1 PSU boards for a order of 15 sets.

That's another option, feel free to go with them if you like. I tried their web interface and found glitches, not sure how comfortable I am doing a HV board set. It'd probably be fine though. I've been working with BayAreaCircuits which is a top drawer manufacturer, but costs a bit more too. Does it make any difference? Don't know. Anyhow Remold did you want to organize a run of cheaper boards through them?
Remolon Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 It was intended as a small contribution for a informed decision.
DefQon Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Those prices look good remolon if you go forth with the GB.

I haven't seen an option to choose more than 1 oz from the times I've used them.
Earspeakers Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Posted February 24, 2015 Have you checked the copper thickness for bay area? I haven't seen an option to choose more than 1 oz from the times I've used them. Hmm, no, but I'll check. Is a greater thickness preferred? Why?
