RWAK380AMP Modification Details
- Add 25x additional (super-low ESR) capacitance to headphone outputs stages’ +/- voltage rails. We hard wire it to the PCB via short, high-purity Cardas Golden Section Litz copper wiring. This enhances the headphone output stages to provide high peak output current when needed.
NOTE: 25x added capacitance is NOT a typo – there is only a small amount of capacitance on the voltage rails of the headphone output stages, and we use energy-dense, super-low ESR capacitance to strengthen the voltage rails considerably.
- Add 25x additional capacitance (super-low ESR) in parallel with the battery via short, high-purity Cardas Golden Section Litz copper wiring. This enhances the internal battery pack’s ability to provide high peak output current when needed.
- Hard wire from the 4-pin BAL input pins directly to volume control IC via short, high-purity Cardas Golden Section Litz copper wiring (bypassing ribbon cable and connectors)
- Hard wire from amplifier output stage directly to 2.5mm TRRS BAL headphone output via short, high-purity Cardas Golden Section Litz copper wiring (bypassing ribbon cable and connectors)
