Pass B1

Hey Sachin, I want an LDR kit for my Tube pre. I didn't know about the second group buy; else would've ordered one.

Hi Capt,
Should I order 10 more boards?I will also keep one.

Regards,
Sachin

Everyone is loving the LDR kit. Much better than the best Blue velvet Alps pots I have used. Want to compare it with smd / through hole stepped attenuators.

+1, Very much true.
That could be because there is no mechanical friction of wiper in signal path. Also this LDR does make any extra capacitance or inductance, just pure variable resistor. This results in pure audio signal.

Me too 2 boards. Also ask quad, he was also interested.

If we get more people then we can group buy LDR and I can offer matching circuit which I built (only removed power wires from that)

I think it would be a good idea. There would be enough interest in our forum itself IMHO. AFA boards are concerned, may be we should make it through PCB power because of the good board quality.

Mishraji, I did not understand the thing I highlighted. Could you elaborate?

One LDR kit from the new group buy reserved for me! :clapping:

Thanks for remembering, Om.
Yes, 2 boards for me and one Power supply PCB.
Hopefully, there will be enough momentum here to
convert that into 2 LDR kits and a power supply kit.
Sachin, please add one of Omishra design CNC PCB too.

Three cheers to Om and Sachin!

 

[Audiodoc]

We can easily go for more than 10-15 LDR Kit group Buy coz everyone needs good volume controls.

Three cheers to Om and Sachin!

yes three cheers to Om and Sachin. They are doing all the hardwork just for the love of this hobby. Excellent job both of you :clapping:

[sachu888]

I will order 15 LDR boards,tomorrow.

Regards,
Sachin

 

[svaze]

Sachin, I'd also like to request for one more LDR board, apart from the full kit which you have already ordered for me.

Mishraji, I did not understand the thing I highlighted. Could you elaborate?

I wanted to say that I can offer the circuit which I built for testing and sorting of LDRs. Last GB we bought unsorted LDRs and then I numbered and matched closely for our use.
So I can do it again as svaze offered to help out or give that circuit board to anybody who is willing to do that.

...Members interested for 2nd group buy :
Doors

Count me in too, please. For the KIT.

 

[josephjohnt]

I would like to get an LDR kit too if available.

 

[keith_correa]

Now, I'm kanphoosed.

Is there a GB in progress for KITS?
OR
Is there a GB in progress for only boards?

Someone, please shed some light - I think I've turned into a LDR

 

[Audiodoc]

I believe kits would be much better if that is not possible atleast the matched LDRs and pot.

 

[captrajesh]

Full kits including PCBs is what I'm advocating. By now, Sachin and Omishra have become experts in sourcing components and hence are the best persons to procure them for all of us.

BTW, due to some technical difficulties in my internet banking account and my official preoccupations, I had delayed my payment to Mishraji (I had initially forgotten about it all)

Hence it may be a good idea to deposit the amount in advance for the kits. At least I'd prefer that way.

 

[Audiodoc]

Not a problem with me too. Just need the quote!

 

[shaizada]

Sachin, sign me up for 2 kits.

 

[omishra]

Sachin is traveling and will back on Sunday morning. So we can wait till that time.

Hi Keith,
GB is only for PCB sets(B1+LDR+power supply).I can order LDRs for lightspeed attenuator.I have already posted BOM with part no for B1.It really takes too much time and efforts for full kit.I hope everyone understands that.B1 parts are available with Element14,except 2 Axon PP caps from part connexion,and matched Toshiba Jfets from Spencer audio have to be imported.
Someone can arrange a group buy for axon caps as shipping is little high from Canada.JeFETs are $2 per matched pair and $4 shipping from Hongkong.

regards,
sachin

Hi Magma,

Any update on enclosures.
