Re: Phono Transfer System Construction Information
No Progress in last few weeks due to other comittments, but my PCM4222 EVM has arrived so I can integrate that. As well as giving me galvanic isolation it will allow me to offend all those sensitive souls who think digitising a vinyl signal will rob it of some magic. Happy days

Re: Flat Balanced Input Moving Coil Phono Preamp Construction Information
That's interesting as I had wondered what would happen if the MM case shield were left floating. Now we know. I have two arms with no way of grounding the cartridge body without running an extra wire along the tube (or attacking with a file in one case). Handy to know it does actually work without e...

Re: Entropy
voice handoff (or UMA) lacked take up as it came out as Nokia was pissing away its market lead to apple and then android both of whom wanted to bypass carriers as much as possible.

Re: Entropy
cell coverage is so rubbish I have to use the land line. When I first movedin 8 years ago there was a wondeful standard that allowed a mobile to hand over to wifi.

Re: Entropy

Re: Phono Transfer System Construction Information
That was plan B when I realised plan A was stupid (switching gain on MC board) and If you switch in a parallel resistance that gives you what you need. I'm just having a risk averse moment as, come next year I will need a visa to go and fix it! He is known to change cartridges 2 or 3 times an evenin...
