wink Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Wonder if the next iteration of the power supply will have these babies on board for the power supply.. http://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/discretes-and-standard-products/diodes/silicon-carbide-schottky-diodes/channel.html?channel=ff80808112ab681d0112ab6a50b304a0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s_r Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I just wondered, has anyone got PCBs left or will there be another group buy? Thanks. Unless I'm mistaken or something has changed there'll be a group buy when the new PSU board is finished. Any news on how that's coming along?

schubert Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Could some of of you tell me how to mount a led push power button and how to provide 12 V for the led ? Where is it possible to find nice knobs (aluminium or wood :ebony, other) ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spritzer Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Assuming you are running the LED at 20mA you can just feed the 12VDC off the +15VDC line through a 150ohm resistor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schubert Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Spritzer, just a question : where do you find your led push power button ? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spritzer Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I got them from here but I just ordered a large lot directly from the manufacturer in China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headinclouds Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 We are all looking for a choice of decent knobs,I was put on to this Hong-Kong based supplier of a range of items,very helpfully by workstarr, which many may already know.http://www.vt4c.com/shop/program/main.php?cat_id=6&group_id=2also quite local to me is Hi-Fi collective ( never cheap but do have a few useful bits)http://www.hificollective.co.uk/components/knobs.htmlof course RS, CPC and Farnell have knobs and sell in EU.

eggil Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 (edited) Well, the power supply for my second KGSShv powered up without a hitch : -15,+15, -504, +504 I am using the IXYS parts. Edited December 24, 2012 by eggil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Chew Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 (edited) Nice work and pictures Enrique. The 580v bias measures ok as well? Edited December 24, 2012 by Victor Chew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwzhan Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Very nice indeed, especially those Kapton. Who doesn't like the look of orange colored tape on high end audio equipments! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggil Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 (edited) Actually, after your horror story I decided to go ahead and use it. Not pretty, but nobody is going to open the hood after is done. Victor, I was too sleepy to play with high voltage last night and stopped before measuring bias. I will tonight. EDIT: Bias measures at 580V and then slowly drifts upwards to 587 V and stays there. I figure that would not damage the stators but I am not sure.

schubert Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Merry Chrismas t all of you stax people. Could anyone give some advice about internal wiring : for mains (size, gauge for HV), and signal (I was thinking about Jupiter cotton copper 26 AWG cryo) ?

justin Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) i just use 22awg all around. 16awg for heaters. Edited December 25, 2012 by justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spritzer Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Same here but I've switched to shielded mic cables for input wiring in the last year. EDIT: Bias measures at 580V and then slowly drifts upwards to 587 V and stays there. I figure that would not damage the stators but I am not sure. The difference is miniscule so no damage at all.

justin Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 i also use 22awg shielded for that since the BHSE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schubert Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Are you using multi or mono strands wires ? Silver or copper ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
