Hi guys,

I'm in the middle of a D-lator build similar to the one I previously build ( http://ceriatoneforum.com/index.php?topic=900.0  and http://ceriatoneforum.com/index.php?topic=1163.0 )

This time I'm building 3 pieces because I want to test some different coupling caps.
Also the power supply is modified with some slightly lighter filter caps.

Coupling caps used in this 3 builds: Orange drop Ps6/ 225P series, Xicon MPP, Cornell Dubilier CDE DME series.

I'll post some pics asap.

4 D-lators may look nice while playing Grin  When the test is done, I'm selling the 3 other ones.

It will take 1-3 weeks when all is build and testing is done. Also I have a holiday planned in between Cheesy
Note: This is a EU based  power supply design, it only works at 230v mains.

If your interested please sent me a PM.

Some pictures; layout, drilling, eyelet board was the easy part. Adding waterslide decal to the frontplate was a nightmare. I will never use it again Angry

Today I finished No.2 out of 3. This one is loaded with OD 6ps/225P. The last coupling cap is CDE dme because I couldnt get a PS serie for that one.

Hi Erwin

WOW Looks like pro stuff. Very impressive. So is your plan to test all 3 configurations (or maybe all 4 with your previous build), Test them and then select the best option and then alter the others to those specs?

Hi Steven,

Thnx! It's all high quality stuff. The only thing I'm not happy with, is the waterslide decal. It's just not as neat as the-old-skool-rubbing-on-lettering.
 Test, select, upgrade; that's the plan Tongue My previous build will include the test because it's got a slightly different filtering on the power supply.
