I would seriously suggest hot-ridding an old computer power supply for a larger 12V power supply. Generally, the green wire on the 20/24 pin connector simply needs to connect to one of the black ones to trick it into powering on, and the yellow wires are 12V.

[@dungysphincter7974]

Thanks for sharing your video! Look at all them Opamps that could be swapped out! LOL! Most likely the NE5532 dual channel Opamps, and NE5534 single channel Opamps. I purchased a $40 chi-fi tube preamp a while back. But after I swapped out the tubes with a matching pair of JAN 5654W tubes ($16 matching pr), and after swapping out the NE5532 dual channel Opamps with the Sparkos Dual Discrete Op Amp SS3602 ($165 for the pair). Which could have made for a very expensive chi-fi POS. However, I thought that if the build of the chi-fi product was well made, and made with good decent parts It could be worth swapping out the opamps, along with the tubes, and IT WAS! To buy something that could come close sonically to this little chi-fi preamp now would cost $500-$600 to replace on the market. This type of opamp rolling, or tube rolling isn't for everyone. Only the more critical listeners of music/audio would generally venture into tube rolling, or opamp rolling although very easy to do. May be fun to try.

[@PacmanBasshead]

Hell, thats a big ass comment! Glad it worked out man! Chifi is fine, if you have a little know how!

Loving the videos mate….. u crack me up! May i suggest using an ATX power supply to run your car amp or anything else you having using 12V. It can provide up to 40amps depending on the power rating. I use 2 x 750w rated units to test car amps / stereos etc, and use the 5V output to charge lithium batteries. Keep up the good work! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@PacmanBasshead]

I need a variable bench supply ideally mate!

[@DAVIDIRUNGU-nk6yx]

yoooh am back.....those transmission line speakers sound divine....plz share the dimensions plz

[@elk3909]

you should use square waves to demonstrate the frequency controls. it will give a better depiction of how the eq works

[@DISCOSHOEBOX]

Quite an interesting device, faffing about with the built in equaliser on my head unit is quite finicky. Being as you're using a phone - which generally doesn't have an equaliser this is probably a great upgrade. With the last few videos, you've proven that they can all replace a head unit in the car anyway. Thanks for being funny and informative.

[@PacmanBasshead]

@DISCOSHOEBOX head units are largely redundant now days with the quality of bluetooth, all a head unit is is a volume knob, a cd player and a built in amp, all of which can be replaced at a 10th of the size!

[@DISCOSHOEBOX]

@@PacmanBasshead my 41 year old car will be getting the small tech as I don't want to chop up the dash

[@2011joser]

I’ve found that the issue with all the cheap equalizers is noise picked up from the car’s electrical system. In my most recent car audio build ( three years ago ) I needed to use an equalizer because I just didn’t have the time to learn how to properly do DSP. I bought three different units that cost from 50 to 100 U.S. dollars. All three ended up with varying levels of noise that defeated all my best efforts at elimination. I finally settled on the Audiocontrol Three.2 , the only dash mountable high quality equalizer available at the time. It has less equalization bands but zero noise issues and a 13 volt peak output.

[@PacmanBasshead]

Oh interesting, 13 volts is insane though! I didnt have any issues with noise with this one i must admit. Dsp's are the way forward for certain though, eq's are good in a pinch

[@2011joser]

@@PacmanBasshead I've been in the hobby for 30+ years and I really wanted to go dsp this because audiocontrol has good equipment but time just didn't allow as the car is my commute vehicle. I will be upgrading to dsp next spring.

[@chappie505ec]

Great video man, thats exactly what I do . In a sense I’m always taking electronics apart and trying to make sense of it all. I’m just your hobby/club disk jockey so I can appreciate your input. I’m trying to make an amp myself so any suggestions would be greatly helpful! DJ-E-MOBILE

[@christophersung2280]

Im totally set for a challenge.

[@Random_4400]

Oh come on i just ordered one of these what a coincidence 🤣 I'm hoping it will solve my clipping issue. I'm running a car amplifier that does 950w at 2 ohms indoors with a 14v 100a switching PSU and 2 4 ohm 300W R.M.S subs wired in parallel for 2 ohms. I noticed that it clips quite easily well before the subs even get rated power. I have an Aiyima Tube pre-amp for the input and my friend is suggesting that that is potentially the issue causing the signal to clip. But even using a signal straight off my phone results in the same problem. Unfortunately i don't have an oscilloscope to properly set my gains. I have it set to a little less then half. I wish i wasn't broke so i could afford an oscilloscope but this was dirt cheap so i thought I'd get it 🤣 Otherwise the setup is super clean before the clipping point. I'm not 100% sure what could be causing this. PSU voltage doesn't drop below 14.2 under load. I'm hoping to find a solution soon maybe this product will solve it. Really hope it wasn't just more waste of money because even though it was cheap i would hate to loose 25$ like that 😂

[@PacmanBasshead]

So the AIYIMA' rails will clip a lot earlier at lower voltage. Your clip is likely because you are hitting the rails, rather than signal input. You need a more powerful amp 😊

[@jasejj]

My dog completely ignored the 6kHz tone. The cat, however, woke up, looked quizically at the speakers, and ran up the stairs. I don't think he liked it very much 😂

[@PacmanBasshead]

Probably my favourite comment so far haha, 👌

[@logman4948]

On the T line can I use multiple woofers? If so do I just add the areas together from both subs or is there a calculation

[@PacmanBasshead]

Yes you absolutely can, in theory, as long as the line throat is the correct size for the moving area of the woofers, you can use 100 woofers BUT they need to be NEXT TO each other or theyll load weirdly in the line.
