We haven't forgot about ya! We've got a demo earmarked for you; our #1 goal has been getting production units out to those who purchased them. We will get something to you sooner rather than later. I'll keep in touch. | |

| Orban / Parasound Dynamic Siblance Controller 516EC Guts Pics and a MYSTERY -- see notes below... OK, so here is the power supply and channel # 3 (this is a 3 channel unit):  And here are channels #1 & 2 and the additional boards that someone has added in. I would have guessed that they were balanced ins, but there are still only two ins (on a barrier strip). Any other guesses?  |

| Looks like a balanced input to me. The larger chip looks like a resistor array. How many connections did you think you needed for a balanced input? |

| Trick question, Ulysses?  While three conductors are typical in a balanced cable - you're right, they could have tied the shield to the chassis, I suppose (or left this end unsheilded?). So this unit is optimized for balanced inputs but unbalanced outputs, which I guess is OK since it will likely end up feeding a channel insert anyway. One final question then, the tie ins to the + and - 15VDC are to power those chips? (OK, two questions, should I worry that the rails are +14.99 and -14.93)? |

| I thought you were asking about black bricks.  Yes, that small boards look like preamps.

| The unit pictured above is the 3 channel Orban 516EC de-esser. You can see that the third channel is unmodified and has a single white wire from the barrier strip to the circuit input. THe first and second channels have been modified with a DIY perfboard input circuit. I think that Justin is correct and these are for a balanced input. Here is the schematic Note the unbalanced input. |

Yes, the +/-15V rails are tied in to power this circuit. The smaller chip is an op amp that needs power. The voltages you measured are not a problem. Strictly speaking, they mean you get .04dB less headroom than you would with exactly 15V rails. In other words, there's absolutely no problem. | |

| Pyramid-V prototype. 2x80W nominal, Russian military tubes. MOSFET voltage regulators for filaments, screen grids, pre amp. This is a concert version, with grill top and TRS ins/outs. 0 dB input, outputs: 4, 8, 16 Ohm. Transformers custom made by EDCOR USA for 20 Hz - 20 kHz on full power. Studio monitor version has a rack mount face plate; home stereo version has banana and RCA sockets. |

I like the black and white shielded cans for the transformers. Good idea. Is black=iron and white=nickel?
