1081 Parts Info

Peter
I don't have the thin spindles on my switches for my ES switches
(did yours come with them???)
ooh - very nice BTW

 

[peter purpose]

Simon,
The thin spindles are on the pots, which you'll have to source elswhere.
The pots then fix to the washers that reside at the rear of the switches and go through em.

We have a eureka blonde moment...
I did miss a meeting - ah sh*t...
okay - off to search....

Peter I have a question, did you get those switches from the group order and if so where did you find the pots?

 

[peter purpose]

fuzz,
That switch is indeed from the group order.
The pots were found at Phoenix Audio UK.
Whether Shaun still has them available I don't know, but he might be able to point you in the right direction.

Thank you very much Peter.
Amazing work on your neeb, have you fired it up?
also did you use the original schems. for parts and values?

cheers Rob

Peter, is that the TF1 class-A output you're using there? Have you had a chance to listen to it compared to the BA340/LO2567 output?

I have a pair of 1090's which I'm converting to 1083 spec (1083's are 1081's with rotary switches instead of pots in the eq..... 1090's are 1083's with no HPF/LPF and no mic input). I'm considering using TF1's on the outputs.

:?:

By the way, that does look fantastic!

[quote author="peter purpose"]Does this help?

This is porn!
I?m happy to know that I?m not enough experienced to get in a such project because I should have need to sell my wife or my daughter. :green:

Er... thank you no.

Rob said <<have you fired it up?>>

Not yet... it's been like that for a couple of years now..!!!

Rob also said <<did you use the original schems>>

Nope... mine came ready built.

JC said <<is that the TF1 class-A output you're using there? Have you had a chance to listen to it? >>

Tis indeed a TF1, but I'm yet to fire em up.

I was at the Bulgarian Moto-cross GP in the early 80s and the local police chief offered me his wife for the night if I gave him my jacket...!!!

I have been searching for a completed parts list or BOM for the TommyTones 1081 PCB project.

Is there a completed BOM for the 1081 Project?

Does anyone have the part numbers for the rotary switches, knobs and sources for these items?

Anyone that has the 1081 items for sale please let me know by PM.

Thanks! :grin:

[byoung]

yeah I suppose if another run of 1081 pcbs is happening there are going to be quite a few people looking for the BOM and parts sources......I'm one of them :grin: , maybe even some group buys will happen for the more expensive stuff

 

[hejsan]

There's a BOM on kubi's site, kubarth.com

hejsan

 

[byoung]

I downloaded the BOM from Kubarths site and I figured it would be pretty simple...look in the catalog, find the parts, order the parts. But I've hit a couple of snags and this is where my inner Newbie shines through....I'm having a wonderful'' time with finding the right caps....especially the axial polystyrene and polyester box caps, so my question is does anybody have any Digikey or Mouser(or any other US dealer) part#'s for these caps? I'm not sure of substitutions or what will fit properly since I know the caps can be tight fitting. I'm building a couple of these and would hate to buy a bunch of caps that didn't fit.

Also are there any cheaper substitutions for the transistors? The NTE stuff seems so expensive? Lastly is this the right place to be posting these questions about the tommytones DIY81 boards?

 

[fuzzbox]

Yeah this project is a mother, it took me over a year just to find most stuff I needed. The polystyrenes I got from 3 different sources, Farnell in one, dalbani.co.uk, and a surplus place here in Montreal. I haven't made a BOM because alot of it was found on ebay or the surplus. All the poly's I used were wima's except any polystyrene's on TT's list. The bc 214 I got on ebay, bc184, bc441, bc461 I got at Farnell.

 

[thestudio]

You will also have to use Elma for switches since BE is nowhere to be
found

I purchased the vast majority of the resistor, capacitor, and transistor parts from Mouser. I avoided the NTE parts except for some of the special diodes used in the daughter cards (ie NTE109 and NTE519).

4 kinds of capacitors:
Axial electrolytics - mainly PS rail decoupling- any high temp will work
Tantalum - Vishay/Sprague - 74-199D series
Axial Polystyrene - filter section values < .01uF - Xicon 23PS series
Metallized Poly - filter section values >= .01uF - Xicon 146 series - big blue color

A print catalog comes in handy so you can quickly scan for the proper cap sizes so they slide right into the holes without any trouble. The series numbers in the above refer to the Mouser part numbers.

BC441 = 2N3053
BC461 = 2N4037

The BC214 and BC184 are still in production. Just make sure you get the right variant so the pins line up right. I believe I used the BC184C. The BC214 should pop up in the Mouser catalog without needing a pinout variation.

For resistors, I stuck with the KOA Speer 660-MF1/2CL series. You might want to get the 660-MF1/4CL for the gain switch. The smaller size will result in a slightly cleaner build.

Just a start on a list for purchasing parts via Mouser.
The main board caps. I couldn't find the Micas in the Mouser Catalog.
Total price for this one was around 88 bucks USD.

NOTE!!! my QUANTIES are 2X !! I am building 2 of them!!!

I'll post a complete list when I finish ordering. I am gonna stuff these first and save some more $$ before ordering the rest!!

Hi Chuck,

Thx for the partial list. Can you show uw some pictures of the boards you're stuffing?
