Can anyone who purchased a pair recently say if they have slimmed down the PS enclosure yet?  If they haven't I am going to speak with Alan and explain this needs to happen.

Can anyone who purchased a pair recently say if they have slimmed down the PS enclosure yet?  If they haven't I am going to speak with Alan and explain this needs to happen.

When I designed the PS I designed it as a prototype - I chose the enclosure (which is what they are using) based on the need 4 5 XLR's and for more room in case needed - I did not expect them to use that enclosure in the final product

After the 2 proto's I built (one for you Jesse and one for T'Funk) I moved to the smaller hammond 1455 series ditched the two mic XLR's infavor of locking DIN connectors and came up with the version seen here below

There is no real reason they couldn't move to this or a similar enclosure

I personally have a quad channel version running off one of these enclosures (1 pair of m260's and 1 pair of m221's)

Thanks, Richard.

ard you ok with me showing this enclosure to t-funk and suggesting it? I think this field set gains a lot the smaller the PS.

I'd still like to move mine to a smaller box, but I've been sidetracked with other things.

Thoughts?

you can talk to them - I haven't been in contact for a few years and currently my business is closed (although I am still looking to build a few more PS's for people - one for a um69, one for a pair of AKC c61's and one for a pair of u67's)

Cool, the community will appreciate it I think if we can slim this thing down. 

I found a bunch of 1455 models when I did a google search; do you know what the dimensions are of the one you selected?  Would you be so kind to elaborate on the parts you used? Is there a DIN to 7 pin adapter needed?

Thanks!

The like most mono tube mics, the m260 only needs 5 conductors to run

They may want to choose a 5 or 7 pin din instead of the ac701 "standard" locking 6 pin as shown in the picture

The enclosure I use is:

I also don't mount the board on standoffs but instead use the board guides on the sides

pm Jesse Hurlburt.  He ran (or is still running) those mics.

There is a particular tape on the LMA.... I think it's Umphrey's McGee at House of Blues in Boston...  that is unbelievable.

I was going to suggest the MMJ tape he did, that was also fantastic.

^ This!!

That MMJ show is my single favorite show on the LMA and is on regular rotation!

Thanks, Richard! 

So is the ac701 the female input on the box? What would you need on the male mic cable end to connect in to that input?  Sorry, not at all familiar with that connector.

Thanks for helping!

If you want pn's etc shoot me a PM with your email and I will send you a list of parts for all the connectors
