    3e Audio TPA3251 TPA3255 Finished Amplifier with PFFB is coming!

    Although this is now listed in AliExpress I am unable to actually purchase: all sold out!

    "Micro Bamboo Project" : 3E Audio 260-2-29A Stereo amplifier + Micro-Audio PSU

    Yes: you will need OpAmps for U1 and U2 also relocate the 0 ohm resistor (meaning it acts as a jumper) see my pics here Post in thread '9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project' https://audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/9-channel-3e-audio-amp-s-project.53855/post-1983201

    Subwoofer: wireless vs wired **under carpet** (XLR or RCA)

    I am not noticing any delays with the wireless, perhaps the Dirac room correction has solved that? I am just hung up on the idea that wired > wireless (always). My room configuration (unusually wide ... it's not a dedicated home theater but a larger open room) does now allow any reasonable...

    Subwoofer: wireless vs wired **under carpet** (XLR or RCA)

    yes really. Nordost (beyond speaker cables) also markets flat high-end interconnect cables. From their website: RED DAWN ANALOG INTERCONNECTS The Red Dawn Interconnect represents the performance pinnacle of the Leif Series. This cable yields the best performance possible in an interconnect...

    Subwoofer: wireless vs wired **under carpet** (XLR or RCA)

    Agree that many (most?) RCA and XLR cables are indeed shielded. And no doubt shielding is a desirable feature! But there also exists un-shielded forms of both RCA and XLR interconnect: some low end (amazon/ebay) and some ultra high end (Nordost Red Dawn or Blue Heaven). My Q to this forum is...

    Subwoofer: wireless vs wired **under carpet** (XLR or RCA)

    Hello, I am re-carpeting my home theater area which currently has (in the rear) an Episode ES-SUB-MEGA-D12 subwoofer which is a dual 12" powered (1000W RMS) sub that has built in wireless receiver (operates on 2.4 GHz ISM band). I've never really had any major problems with this wireless...

    Fosi Audio V3 Mono Amplifier Review

    I also have the RZ50 and am now building a 9 channel amp (using tpa3255 just like Fosi V3 mono see my DIY thread) for same reasons you cited.

    9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project

    After consuming 100 hours of YouTube videos on PCB routing, surely this makes me an expert! :)

    9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project

    I will definitely check that out once I get past this work on the MCU controller (meaning ... it could be a few weeks!). Is the case front really aluminum, or lots of plastic ?

    9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project

    As for the relay board, I realized that 110V components do not belong on a 5V control board and have moved to this external relay board (<$3 each from AliExpress or Amazon) which I've used in other projects. On my bench, I tried many cycles and the maximum current draw is 3.83 mA so I think that...

    9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project

    Thanks (again) @mcdn for catching my schematic errors (I've credited you with the Review :) on this latest revision). The misplaced diode was my lack of understanding (but your explanation makes total sense - thanks!); while the backwards transistor was a drafting mistake ... I just now learned...

    9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project

    ah now I see your passive relay control circuit! Me being more of a software (vs hardware) guy, I wonder if I could just create the right variable voltage from that same one MCU output by using internal DAC (or PWM to generate desired duty cycle)? Finally a sufficient reason to dust off my...

    9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project

    Appreciate the tips! Agree TRIG needs a current limiting resistor (my prototype has this but I missed in schematic). Relay/lowering voltage - somehow I have used up ALL my MCU pins (!?!) so I will just have to go with a high quality component and take my chances. But this is excellent design...

    3e Audio TPA3251 TPA3255 Finished Amplifier with PFFB is coming!

    ... but that front volume control CAN be defeated (entirely out of the audio circuit) yes?

    9 Channel 3E Audio Amp(s) project

    Being a fairly inexperienced amp "designer" I have lots of questions so I would like to measure several variations of the amp: master/slave vs all masters .... with/without shielded drains connected to chassis ... etc. Therefore I am purchasing the necessary equipment to take distortion...

    Shots below of my working amp in Frankenstein case, some pieces not shown (fans & prototype raspberry pi controller ... I am working on an PIC16 based MCU). What I want is a quality aluminum case 17" wide (standard width) and 12" deep by 5" tall but I just cannot find ANYTHING out there (even in...

    3e Audio TPA3251 TPA3255 Finished Amplifier with PFFB is coming!

    Basically the LSA Warp 1 at less than half price AND with proper trigger controls. Exactly what the world needs.

    building a TPA3255 260-2-29A, and need some guidance

    to be clear, the wiring advice I gave you DID indeed "help" to at least enable the slave module again to produce audio? Because previously you had stated My master/slave wiring advice was intended to address that problem (there's no audio) and I believe this WAS helpful as such. So what you...
