Is there any way we could get a little more detailed instruction on how to connect the thump buster? A diagram would be nice if possible.

1. MrMajestic, it looks like you connect the the power from each side of the power input for each channel from the Buff 32s board v+ to v+ on the Thumbuster and v- to v- on the Thumbuster and GND to GND on the Thumbuster.

2. You then take + from the Buff32s balanced output and link it to 2 on the Thumbuster and - from the Buff32s balanced output and link it to 1 on the Thumbuster.


For Russ White....

3. Russ, Can it actually support two single ended connections, one connection to 2 and GND and the other connection to 1 and GND on the Thumbuster? I'm thinking sub and main amps here.

4. Could you combine this with using the single ended or balanced off the main board or would this bee too much? I have no use for this, just thinking aloud for everyone to read.

5. I presume you could use one single ended from the Thumbuster and 1 balanced from the main board.

Best wishes,

Russ

You want the TB to shunt both + and - out to GND at the same time. Otherwise if your using the balanced output and only shunt one to gnd you would have a differential voltage, which would then make a nasty thump on the balanced output. By wiring the TB to both + and - outputs per channel you get to use SE and balanced both with complete peace of mind.

Cheers!

Hi Russ,

My new board did not come with Thump Buster boards but it looks like there are two relays now built into the board. Is that right?

Thanks,

Paul
