I was just looking at the side of one of my Sons of Ampzilla, Are the outputs on yours mounted on the inside of the amp chasis or the out side. the Sons have thiers out side, each contected to its own heat sink. Any thoughts?

Same here Jim. They just extended the top, bottom and side covers to include the heatsinks. Plenty of louvering to keep cool.

I own an 1800, they used to sell for $50 on a good day, I guess the word is out that parametric EQ's are the way to go. I also owned the E101 parametric, and it's worth the higher price, you can store multiple settings at the touch of a beautifully engineered/dual function button (I should be paid for this advertising ).

If ya have a tough room, a para over a graphic every time mates, just ask the pros.

And Craig, I still have a Sound Shaper Paragraphic EQ but not in us.

Jim, that was my first EQ,thanks for those memories, it's not a 'true' parametric tho as you can see. I loved mine, you just made my day! XXX000's

 

[Fairchild]

I enjoyed playing with it, but I like to play with a lot of things. lol

I finally removed it from my system as they do put some noise in eventually. Being Paragraphic it was supposed to give you the best of both worlds. I still prefer the SAE Parametric Preamp

You need to watch the size of the files and the file types...and some files cannot be uploaded for other reasons (maybe the site gets cranky on the server). If you can find other sources in search, try different file types and sizes (resolutions).

You will often be told the parameters to follow with uploading when you go to do it. If you right click (IE) or similar in other browsers and choose 'Properties' ib that menu a window will appear telling you the file name, type, URL/source, size etc and this is what you need to know.

The URL can be pasted in when you click on the 'tree?' icon third from the right (next to remove link) or you can save the file and post it or other files on your computer drive.

There is another routine for photos with the drag down gallery that I think you are frustrated with and there you have tighter restrictions.

Perhaps we ought to have a sticky on the subject?

I never got to use a computer while in the hospital!

Probably why I was gung-ho to get back home...I missed my friends!

Got around to fgixing the 2300. It took a hit during testing when I was a 80K with a 1 volt input ands a sl;ip of the wrist took it to 5 volts input. It didn't like it. Took out the bias transistor and the 5 legged 2SA798 input pair.

 

[laatsch55]

We are testing now....

 

[laatsch55]

Still have some work to do.....

 

[laatsch55]

Got an emergency call out. A big submersible is down. Gotta go.

[laatsch55]

After I get a few more projects out the door Steve. Payin customers first.
