Hello, it was mentioned in this white market thread;  http://www.groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=40755.0  that you have parts kits that drop right into SB4000 PCBs. Exactly which kits are they? How much are they with shipping to 07407 U.S. ( basically New York City )? Are they in stock?

Got my parts kit last week.  Everything looks great, but I just have a couple questions. 
There are 3 really tiny resistors in the kit, one I measured at 25.5k and two at 200k.  I noticed there were no 1/4w 200k resistors in the kit, so are these replacements for those? 
There were also two much larger 3.92m resistors.  I'm guessing these are perfectly fine to use instead of 1/4w?

Just to verify, your meter is 1mA, so there's no need for R111 (300R) right?  Does that have to be jumpered or just left out?
Thanks!

 

[Ptownkid]

25k5 is superfluous, they are indeed 1/4 watt resistors (so the 200k are good), yes the 3m92's are fine, they are 1/2 watt. Yes, the meter resistor gets left empty with a 1mA meter.

Cheers

 

[minor_glitch]

Oh they are 1/4w? Good to know.  I naturally assumed since those 3 were smaller than all the other resistors they must have a smaller rating like 1/8w or something.
Thanks for the info!

 

[sr1200]

BTW got the case and meter.  Thumbs way up! thanks!

 

[Ptownkid]

You are both very welcome. Cheers

Ptownkid,
I just sent an email to the gmail address with a couple questions (probably stupid)
You and Ruckus have put something awesome together here and I was waiting for this kit for years now. Great to come back to the forum and see this!!

 

[Ptownkid]

All the credit goes to Ruckus!

Cheers

Hey Ptownkid, any chance you'd happen to have an extra THAT 2181A I could buy off you?  I was done soldering all the components on my board except for one final 2181A, and what do I do?  I install it backwards...  Fought with it for half an hour but couldn't get it out, so I gave up and snapped it off the board.  ~!@#$%

 

[minor_glitch]

On second thought, don't worry about it.  I just ordered two 2181A's through Newark along with a bunch of other random junk I've been needing (extra weller tips, sponge, etc...)  Leave it to me to destroy the $11 component on the board! Couldn't have been a capacitor...noooo.

Hey minor,

How is it going? 

Why don't you use sockets for the VCAs?
Regular SIL sockets oughtta do.  Sayal's got them IIRC.

Cheers,

Mike

 

[Ptownkid]

The kit came with sil sockets...

 

[minor_glitch]

Hey Mike, it's going good. Although I still seem to be finding new and interesting ways to screw things up!
I noticed the 4 extra sil sockets in the kit AFTER soldering the chips in place... I'm a genious like that.

 

[buildafriend]

Hi, I ordered an SB4000 kit from you on the 13th. I was wondering when I should expect to see it if I live in 07407 US.

 

[Ptownkid]

There is a postal strike here right now...but it looks like they will be forced back to work this week.

 

[Ptownkid]

NEW next week

SGA-SOA-2 opamp kits and basic 3 rail psus (+V/-V/+48V)
