a183-3 could be stereo

a183-3 could be stereo

2009-01-28 by Stu Grimshaw

i was thinking that the mini multiples in the proposed a183 amplifier
are more of a space-filler (much better than nothing i would
absolutely agree) than a logical feature.

how about two channels of in/out? this would make for a stereo input
preamp module, which must be handy for lots of us mashing up audio.
(replacing two a119s with one a183 would save me ten units of space!)

and i'm sure a dozen other interesting applications.

the extra cost would be very modest, i imagine. dieter?

cheers,

stu

Sounds like a great use of space, especially for the beauty cases.

I also agree with this suggestion!

it should be configurable with jumpers.

It's a technical problem. The custom made potentiometers we use in the
A-183-3 (vertical version with the axis at right angle to the pcb) are not
available in a dual stereo version. Consequently two controls would be
necessary. Then the 4HP panel is no longer sufficient - unless the switches
and overload LEDs are omitted. Maybe we can add an A-183-4 with two channels
later. In any case we will firstly manufacture the A-183-3 because it was
suggested in this version by several users (outside of this group - yes
there is intelligent existance on other planets) and we have already
pre-orders.
