SOAP - Simple OpAmp Pre

The almost complete kit. Observe that the tranny is bought from NIXIE! RM35 for a 15-0-15 tranny. Not bad.

Finally! Getting -15V after having difficulty with the trimmer. Whew!

Pix above shows before I start my 'magic' touch... hehe

A friend drop by to help him finish up his project.

Basically I need to connect the transformer to the board and adjust the trimmer on the voltage regulator to get 15V. He dare not do it in fear of exploding caps! Hehehe..

Had trouble adjusting the LH trimmer.. desolder it and install it back to the board, still unable to trim. Decided to put it slight pressure to the screw and VOILA! It works... Mind you this is NOT JP stuffs! Bought from FARNELL mind you!

He plans to use it with his GainClone amp that is i n progress..

Here are some pics...
