Hmm, seems that a change in plans is out: Odroid c2. Specs are better.

I might go quiet for some while... My active forum times are 10 years in the past, when BaseBoard was still alive and thriving. (mac stuff...) But. I will resurrect myself!

Oh, did some research on RA-1 clones in general and those values popped up again. Better gain and lower noise with them... Now I just need to source a suitable enclosure for it.

Well, I can get the resistors next month, as work begins again... The SMT-machines spit them out a plenty Once they hit the reject bin, they're trash. Only those components that are limited in amount get picked and put to tape or tray again...

Caps are bipolar. I'll take pics of the pcb later today. I'd have expected a bom with the kit...

Ok, the RA-1 -clone arrived and it suffers from the same error as the one discussed at RG... At least on silkscreen. Also components reflect silk. 6*1003, 6*4640 (instead of 4643) and 6*1213 - also, the led has no resistor... there's a spot labeled XK, nad if nothing is soldered there, led will not light Also, where the volume pot is placed, reads 100km but the pot appears to be dual 50k. Blech. Other two amps are waiting at post, I'll pick them up tomorrow.

And yeah, thanks for these also... This is one definite mod I will do as male-male cables are readily available. Though will need to think about how they transfer movement to construction. ("microphonics?") Are you going to try the headband mod also? I believe it smooths out the higher frequencies but you should use one of the better brands of duct tape. The modder used the typical grey tape but I believe brown works even better. Dunno about that mod... but it will be Black Duct tape (As is my soul ... opps )

ey, for the mods you guys are talking about, check this link -> imgur.com/a/AcBF2Found it on reddit long ago And yeah, thanks for these also...

Well, nothing yet, just pondering. But it seems very good solution - I have a spare USB-hdd box lying around, from that I can scavenge the adapter to use external drive... And I think I will end up running OpenElec and Kodi, hooking up the NFS-shares from my puter

Drunk again, likely split with my fiancee as my ex (with just diagnosed MS) called a long one... This time, good riddance, I'm better off. She'll get the the tin amp, promised that. Don't want the anxiety anymore.
