Looser101 Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 HiFi2000 Pesante Dissipante modushop.biz Nice. And you can even get a Dusty approved faceplate.
luvdunhill Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 What should I expect soundwise from a Dynafet? pshaw.. no one is actually going to listen to these, they are just for show
guzziguy Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 What's the parts count per board? And it's one thing to populate a few boards, it's another thing entirely to build an amp soup to nuts. Even with a fully machined chassis it's no small feat with an amp of this complexity. I understand. I can populate the boards and probably debug problems (with just a little help. ) I'd need lots of help when it comes to casing it up. However, if some of the casework is done, I might be able to muddle through it. Of course, it really depends on what cost we are talking about. My question may be quite moot (to me).
Hopstretch Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 pshaw.. no one is actually going to listen to these, they are just for show Won't say what they cost, won't say what they sound like. I'm so glad I'm in for one!
luvdunhill Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 Won't say what they cost, won't say what they sound like. I'm so glad I'm in for one! I'd say they compare favorably to commercial amps in the $5K range.

And it seems if you order 4 or more they don't charge shipping. Could also be an error in their software. luvdunhill - 8 - 4Asr - 0 - 4Stretch - 0 - 4looser101 - 4 -2PFKMan23 - 0 - 4Naamanf -? - 4Icarium - 0 - 4
Hopstretch Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 I'd say they compare favorably to commercial amps in the $5K range. Yeah yeah, but how do they compare to Singlepower amps in the $15K range?
luvdunhill Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 Yeah yeah, but how do they compare to Singlepower amps in the $15K range? good question. Better find an appropriate floor wart for interested builders quick!
Torpedo Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 Won't say what they cost, won't say what they sound like. I'm so glad I'm in for one! LOL with these credentials I think I'm still less sure to participate
Icarium Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 How about a case with integral heatsinks? Something like this: Man that's like exactly the case my Rudistor RP010 Classic was in. I rather liked the case though I could have done without the handles that I guess you can wrap cables around.
DigiPete Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 . Kevin's orginal design shows half the output devices. Does leaving half the output devices unpopulated change the sound quality of the amp if driving any normal headphone short of a K-1000 ?

Does leaving half the output devices unpopulated change the sound quality of the amp if driving any normal headphone short of a K-1000 ? If you happen to have a list of current requirements for all headphones minus a K-1000 I can try and answer that one for you ... otherwise, remember, there is no such thing as overkill in this hobby, especially in a Kevin Gilmore design

luvdunhill Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 I'd say let's get a quote for those cases.
luvdunhill Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 I'd say let's get a quote for those cases. I'm curious what the C/W rating is of the heat sinks are though. Looks like we're talking around 3.75W per device...

n_maher Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 If I might be so bold, those unwilling or unable to build should be prepared to offset the costs for the builders. The parts count doesn't look that high per board (less than 100). Frack it. n_maher - 4 - 0
naamanf Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 I'd say let's get a quote for those cases. Looks like for an order with over four units the price is $85 for the 2U 300mm and $100 for the 3U 300mm. For some reason shipping costs are not shown when I add more than three to the cart. If shipping isn't free I would say add about $50 to the price. That's with current exchange rates.
spritzer Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 http://www.modu.it/CARATTERISICHE_TERMICHE_DISS.pdf Brilliant as I was just looking for that info. Time to gut the old KGSS chassis and put a BH in there...
Hopstretch Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 If I might be so bold, those unwilling or unable to build should be prepared to offset the costs for the builders. Goes without saying. Also, you're a prince!
