SOTA Sapphire speed issue
I've.akso been having severe speed instability issues...in my case, related to a fried power supply, just as @effischer describes above (same deal, too, fried in transit, loose transformer,. Etc. Etc). I've temporarily replaced with a $10 24v wall... 
Lexicon RV-8 query followup-fan noise?
Ok. Lexicon state that (curiously) the original spec RV8 did not have a power supply fan at all(!), but confirmed that it is normal that, once the power supply fan WAS added to subsequent models, it stayed on permanently, with no internal speed co... 
Lexicon RV-8 query followup-fan noise?
Ok i think i got this. According to my research, a 12v fan's speed is dependant on input voltage....So i can buy an ultra quiet 12v fan, then just use 24v-12v regulator from the normal power supply's (24v) power and ground feeds (leaving the fan s... 
Lexicon RV-8 query followup-fan noise?
Yep i was thinking similar....there are some very quiet 80mm 12v fans, so i could just put an inline 24v-12v regulator in, and fit one of these. I see most of them have a third cable (to a resistor?) which i assume is the control? i looked at exte... 
Lexicon RV-8 query followup-fan noise?
Thanks all. Am waiting for response from Lexicon. Will post for information. But since i bought this power supply with fan attached from Lexicon only one week ago ($800 NZ, including shipping and GST!) i am guessing they have no recent fix...i rea... 
Lexicon RV-8 query followup-fan noise?
Thanks, but 40db!!! Was looking more for the 14-20db area. Or even better, any advice from rv8 owners as to whether this is normal for the power supply fan (which has just been replaced, along with the power supply) to be running on full tilt perm... 
Lexicon RV-8 query followup-fan noise?
Yep thanks but i cant find any good, quiet 80mmx80mmx15mm (or more like 13mm, with NO headroom) 24v fans...No settings in rv8 to change fan speeds; it should all be automatic, according to service manual.I left the amp on standby all night, and th...

Sota sapphire question-power supply fuse rating?
Thanks Tony-any idea of the current rating then? "buss mdl 1/4" = 0.25A, 1A, or 4A, or none of these?! Never seen a fuse rating of "1/4" before....!many thanks in advance forumites 
Sota sapphire question-power supply fuse rating?
Yeah thanks. But it's not printed on the fuse Anywhere....I did start there before asking the question!! There are markings on the fuse but no numbers at all; only the name of manufacturer. Besides which, the fuse is blown, and there are no guaran...
