Re: RSD IC pads

I'm assuming it's for a transistor?

Shoot me a good close up pic so I can determine the size of sil-pad you need. I can either send you a couple if I have the correct size, or at least point you in the right direction to purchase some.

Re: best pg sq amp ever

Does that fan even fit in those amps? There is already a very small gap from the fan case to the heatsink, making it smaller would just choke the fan... Besides, since 25mm deep fans are significantly easier to come by than 15mm deep fans, I would have guessed PG would have used 25mm in the first p...

Re: best pg sq amp ever

next to the speed of a fan , it is the bearing type that causes more or less noise !!!! the panaflo fans in the V1 models(zx , zpa) bearing type was hydro wave, the adda fans in the V2 models were ball bearing. ball bearing will make way more noise..... I would love to hear from Shawn K witch type ...

Re: best pg sq amp ever

Shawn, thanks for taking something based 100% on opinion and somehow turning it into an argument... You win. The ZPA is the best sounding amp PG ever made. This is not an opinion, because you said so, and since you are the top authority on how everyone in the world hears, you have deemed it law. PG...

Re: best pg sq amp ever

I will agree with you about the fans however. No question. If I had a hatch or pick up truck, I just might look elsewhere. Thankfully, I'm not worried about it with my Accord. Fortunately however, you can upgrade the fans to modern lower noise units!

Re: best pg sq amp ever

Also, I still can't figure out how the power supply design can be compared to an input stage design? I fail to see how one can "make up for" or "detract from" the other.... weird :?

Re: best pg sq amp ever

Well we can agree to disagree! By saying that a true dual mono power supply is necessary for an sq oriented amp, also states that you can actually "hear" any potential IM distortin created from the power supply. That's just silliness! Poor channel separation is much more of an issue with b...

Re: best pg sq amp ever

I was thinking the Xenons myself for the very reasons Eric pointed out. But I've still gotta say that the ZPAs are my overall pick. I'm with you! The Xenons are a very good amp. The local shop I used to work at was a PG dealer when the Xenon line was released. I've installed quite a few of them and...

They were not cheap, but anything truly custom never is 8)

I would suggest contacting Stuart ( stuartyp ) via pm if you're interested in a set. Or perhaps he will pop in here sometime and disclose prices.

Re: How do i price these

Just curious..... Why do you want to get rid of them? These are super nice and very unique!



On a side note.. I'm looking to customize my dd10 as well, but I don't want to do it unless I can rebadge it. Can you get another set of badges? I'd gladly pay for them and your time!
