Derek's Phase Linear 700 Everstuff....

not a true dual p/s.
it's only got one xformer

But the 3150 has duals, not my pic, I forgot to take one when I had the top off.

Are the dual transformers the reason why I noticed the NAD 3150 sounded so nice?

it would be a major contribution.

Derek, those won't hold a candle to a new WOPL. You are going to be truly amazed...

No doubt about that. It was a nice surprise though and a good trial of a dual power supply unit, the NAD is only 50 watts per channel and I didn't expect it to sound that good. Its been running for a good 5 hours flawlessly so I hope its fixed, will continue to test through the week, my friend will be happy to get it back, he has owned it since new.

Well, according to my Aussie (friggin') Post tracking page, it looks like Lee has a new brown box....
(unless he's returned it to have it's colour changed)

So D2, you're that much closer to having your brains blown out of your rectum......

Something happened on it's way to the States, it morphed into a 700 chassis....

WTF ????
I'm sooooooo freakin' sorry.
I don't know how I got it so wrong.
I'm at a loss.......

 

[laatsch55]

Don't be sorry, I'm ecstatic....

 

[pennysdad]

Don't be sorry, I'm ecstatic....

no.... you're being too kind.
I ph*ked up. that's all there is to it.

The 3020 Looks pretty cool under the bonnet.

Derek: And like your buddy's NAD 3150, the 3020 is stable down to 2 ohms. The soft clipping feature is good, too. Read this article:

If that's a F&^%$# I'll Take those all day!!

STOP IT!
I'm feeling bad enough as it is.....

Afterthought: Can you cut some off it to make it smaller?

BD , seriously you had no iudea what you had. I think this a 700 Ser II chassis. Just checked it against a Ser I heatsink!!!!!!! It is a Ser II!!!! Which means I wonm't have to gut a 700B to send to Joe so he can start on the 700 backplane boards!!!! BD, you done REAL GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ser II because it does not have the Normal/Direct switch hole and it has "Press Nuts" for the top and bottom covers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wot threw me was the gap between the transformer cut out and the top of the chassis.....
i think it's a tad different.

.... but i'm really sorry if it's delayed progress on D2's project.

 

[laatsch55]

It did not delay D2's project in the least. Ed is sending me 2 ---400 parts only chassis so it's all good.
