    Default DCB1 TURBO BUILD @600Ma

    Hi All

    I'm in the middle of building my Dcb1turbo, I built my first earlier this year and had it finished by Alan ( Firebottle )
    It turned out to be a very good preamp indeed, I then sold this project to Macca on this forum only because Id like to push my next
    build and make a few changes, these will be listed along with pictures as i progress with the build.

    The Kit used
    Bare DCB1 turbo board by Salas rev 3.3 imported from America.
    1 X Build kit to start the project
    Elma 2 pole 6 way selector switch
    Khozmo 50k series attenuator
    Audio Note Tantalum resistors
    Nichicon caps and Dale 1% resistors throughout the build

    The Kit


    The Hypnotize turbo board

    Board Partially stuffed

    Almost complete. Im still unsure if I will run this board at 600Ma or 1.2A so have left the 2x47ohm resistors un -fitted
    along with the Fets. At 600Ma the Aluminium base will be the heatsink but at over an amp will need some serious cooling.

    Notice the 8 resistors around the relay, they have now been changed to Audio Note Tantalum.

    Will update the post as i progress with the build.

    The Aluminium Case arrives tomorrow along with some huge heatsinks
    then i can start putting my preamp together.

    Hi Oliver
