Continuing on safari big game and small…

… spotting any actual Hitachi lateral Mosfets requires just the right angle and light between board and heat sink. Here we see the four of one channel. Below is  another look at that current-buffer PCB.

Getting digital…

… we have a dedicated USB XMOS transceiver board, a big Lemaker processing assembly plus another board beneath it which thus is obscured. Finally a head-on view on the main processor board for those in the know on what they're looking at.

Simon: "I wanted to make a high-end sound device, not a highly complicated machine where all family members can share the quality of music and movies easily and intuitively. Some audiomaniacs will of course ask for more, especially certain functions in the digital domain. But I wanted to draw a line which can be thought of as dividing the normal from the excessive people. For example the network function is limited to DLNA. The USB memory stick has limitations. Once loaded up, read-in times will be longer and navigation more complicated. But all I wanted was for someone to select a function, change a preset then adjust the volume. If your wife can operate the AIO and likes the sound, I would be more than happy. My next two versions will be a higher-end more comprehensive take for around $10'000; and one with a far simpler shape and less connectivity but the same sound quality for around $1'500. I hope to have those finished by the end of this year."
