nattonrice Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 You built that by hand That some seriously good work guys. I remember seeing it on HF thinking you sent away for them to be machined, they looked that well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing it on HF thinking you sent away for them to be machined, they looked that well done. They were machined...machined by Dr. Wood. And thanks for the kind words, your free headphone stand will be shipped soon, as per our agreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin gilmore Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 how about some of these specifically designed for O2's SIEVEKING SOUND OMEGA HEADPHONE STAND (ZEBRANO) - elusivedisc Dr. wood, i know you can do a better job.

Dusty Chalk Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) Sieve King? Sieve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Yup, that's what I thought it meant. Odd name for a company that doesn't make sieves...OR DO THEY?!?!? Or maybe "sievek" is a verb in another language, and they are in the process of sieveking...

kevin gilmore Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 precision automation is such a wonderful thing... http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/ampbars.jpg That is enough for 4 amplifiers, left another 8 at work, on monday the same thing except 10 inches for the power supplies... Heatsinks will be in house in about 3 weeks, program already written and tested on a hunk of wax... Then the front/back panels after that, then the circuit board order. Top and bottom panels are a no brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvdunhill Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 How do you test heatsinks on a hunka wax? Ya test the gcode on the wax, not the heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 I'm picturing him molding the heatsinks out of wax -- -- but seriously, I know that's not right: 1 - what would he use for heat sources? He's not going to waste real components on that. 2 - it wouldn't work anyway -- they'd melt starting at the heat sources, rather than at the fins. So seriously -- what is he doing -- does he already have the heatsinks molded, and he's putting a wax film on it to make sure the heat is getting dissipated evenly?

nattonrice Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 The heatsinks need to be drilled and tapped by a computer controlled mill. He uses a similarly sized (to the production heat sink) block of wax to test the drilling routine he has made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swt61 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Dr. wood, i know you can do a better job. Well unfortunately I don't have a resaw ATM. And my planers lowest setting is 1/4". I'd need to find a source for 1/16" exotic stock. I suppose I could use veneers, but it would change the look slightly (more and thinner layers).

kevin gilmore Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 And the companion amplifier to the T2, the SRX circuit as built by stax (the $12k thing) with help from you know who. Option of the caddok completely non-inductive plate resistors, or the T2 current source. Fits in the same size chassis with the same size power supply boxes... http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/staxsrx2-1.pdf Could be under $2500 in parts total with the good sockets and the DACT. Blows the crap out of the ES1/2... Got to go to a meeting, will glue the pdf's together later... Especially with the caddok current sources, this one is a complete no-brainer to build! Hardly any parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
