Not been doing a whole lot with props lately (Aaron costume from Alien 3 is about it). I have been focused on Home Stereo stuff for a while. Above, is a phono preamp, for MM and MC cartridges with a few front panel tweaks available. It is a design by Dr. Wyn Palmer (hence, the model number), and it is a world-beater. A commercial version will be available (two versions actually) within the next few months to a year. The cheaper version will be about $250.00 and available soonest. Parts availability is an issue for the "fancy" version, which is approaching the performance of the one above, for about $2500.00 retail. The OEM has not been names by Wyn yet (at their request).
He also designed a Headphone amplifier, that I also built, but that is far less sexy looking.
And currently I'm finishing up a DAC that has been sitting in a drawer for about ten years (attached PDF)...
And here we have a (heavily) modified Rega Planar 3 turntable. It is a baltic birch plinth with an ebony veneer. Below it is an aluminum/rubber constrained layer sub-plinth that rides on three height-adjustable cones. Power switch has an integrated bubble level, which is back-lit when the power is on.
That's about it for the moment, but I have asked Wyn to look into a line preamplifier design for me...
