Scryer ... or how F8 met Mighty SissySIT

[von Ah]

Vive la Scryer!

Listening to mine right now. Louder than usual.

 

[Zen Mod]

Damn ZM!!

Ha!

I did packed them , but Customs Mafia evidently needed 2pcs of 150R/3W resistors, for their coffee maker

 

[derekr]

That thought did cross my mind - having had other things mysteriously vaporise in their sheds. But it did not disturb my motorcycle building state of mind. All good.

Because I have the power supply in another box entirely, one thing I’m missing from my Scryer is an appropriately tinted LED glowing from within the chassis per channel. Are there good spots on Scryer’s PCBs to tap for an LED, or should I just add a resistor and LED off of the DC supply inlets?

 

[ElArte]

I wonder if I could build this thing.
I am not terribly smart.
My eyesight is not what it used to be.
My hands are not as steady either.
But my hearing is still sharp.

 

[Zen Mod]

should I just add a resistor and LED off of the DC supply inlets?

yup

ZM's Thumb of Rule (them all) - 1K for each supply voltage - nowaday's LEDs are happy with 1mA

 

[Zen Mod]

1K for each supply voltage

1K for each V of supply voltage

example : 22V5dc rail, resistor 0207 size, 18K-22K

Is that MZM maths?

[andynor]

Making evening supper for MZM and myself.

 

[flocchini]

Can I come? Looks absolutely fabulous

 

[andynor]

It’s VR/teleportation style, so sure!!! Unless MZM is in Spain that is

 

[Zen Mod]

ZM is everywhere

 

[Vunce]

Delicious!!
And an after dinner espresso

Enjoy Andy

 

[MEPER]

Cooked on top of amp?
You could blend it with fermented shark (specialty from Iceland!). Gives a special flavor like negative 2nd harmonic etc etc.....

Tonight just a good cava before and during. After no coffee I am afraid, need our sleep. But a pitty, Italy and post meal espressos and Limoncello is one of my favourite things in the dining department. 🇮🇹

But must admit Spain isn’t bad either.

 

[von Ah]

Perfect time to update the Scryer thread!

My Scryer is back in the main system today.

PLUS, I made my signature Frutti Di Mare dinner for me and my son.

Now enjoining the Scryer and my updated OB speakers after the gustatory delight. Life is good. Cheers.

 

[Zen Mod]

Life is good

yeah!

@Vunce: any conclusions re the additional capacitance?

 

[pfarrell]

just be sure that SIT gate resistor position on pcb is populated with 0R (short) and mount flying gate resistor ditto on SIT gate, neatly heatshrinked (wire, resistor, gate pin)

do not twist GDS wires, just route them normally together

Doublechecking this ZM... R138 (and R238) = 0R, and 100R wired inline (shrink-wrapped and such) with wire feeding gate on my Tokins?
