The Doepfer A-100DIY1 Do-it-yourself Kit 1 is a kit that comprises of various components, allowing you to create a case for the A-100. The Doepfer A-100 DIY kit is ideal for the crafter and modular user who enjoys building up a case from scratch. Included in the A-100 Doepfer kit is a power supply, external capsuled transformer, 2 bus boards, 4 84HP front rails, 160 M3 nuts, and cable for connections between the power supply and bus boards. Additionally, the Doepfer A-100DIY1 provides you with helpful sketches with measures for accurately drilling holes, as well as a building suggestion.
Features
- Do-it-yourself construction of a case for the A-100
- Power supply with external transformer (AC output)
- Because of safety reasons, no dangerous voltages accessible inside the case
- Output voltages / currents: +12V (max 1200 mA), -12V (max. 1200 mA)
- External capsuled transformer
- 2 bus boards
- Four 84HP front rails (427mm length) for mounting of the modules, incl. 8 mounting screws
- About 160 M3 nuts which have to be inserted into the front rails (as the nuts can be slid to any position, even modules of other manufacturers with different position of the mounting holes can be assembled without gaps)
- Cable for connections between power supply and bus boards
- Sketches with measures (for drilling the holes at the right positions for PSU and bus board mounting)
- Building suggestion for wooden case (sketch + list of all required wooden case parts)
- Additional installation material like screws, nuts or distant bolts (e.g. for bus boards, power supply board, rails) are not included as these parts depend upon the type of case built by the customer
- To operate the kit, an external transformer with 14-18V/2.4A AC is required, the current of the transformer has to be twice the value of the +/-12V DC current, the max. value is 2.4A (corresponding to 1200mA for +/-12V DC). Even smaller current output is possible; the current output of the power supply is half the current of the external transformer as the currents for both voltages +/-12V are required (if e.g. the transformer outputs max. 1000mA, the max. power supply current is 500mA for +/-12V)
- If +5V is required (e.g. for some modules from other manufacturers) the +5V adapter A-100AD5 may be used
How much is my shipping?
Shipping is automatically calculated before you submit your payment information. Simply add items to your cart and proceed to the checkout page, where you'll be offered shipping options and their prices. In the UK it's normally around £4 for order values under £150, and free above that. Shipping to mainland EU is typically between £7 and £20, depending on the shipping method and the size and weight of the order.
Do you ship to my country?
Almost certainly - the site will give you an estimate of shipping costs if you add an item to the cart and then enter your country and postcode. If you have specific requirements (such as if you prefer UPS over FedEx, for example) then let us know in advance and we'll try to work something out for you.
Shipping methods
We use a combination of Parcelforce, DPD, Royal Mail and UPS for the UK, and for international orders it's either Royal Mail, UPS, DHL or FedEx depending on where you are in the world. If you have a particular preference then try to let us know BEFORE you order so we can look into it for you. Please note that there may occasionally be additional shipping charges if you live in a remote area, depending on what surcharges are applied by the shipper. We'll get in touch to discuss this with you in such cases.
Dispatch times
For UK orders, we normally dispatch the same working day if we get the order before 15:00. If you have a really urgent situation then of course drop us an email before ordering and we'll always do our absolute best to accommodate you.
For international orders, we normally dispatch the same day if we get the order before 13:00 but again, occasionally it might be the next day before we can send it out, and sometimes FedEx or UPS may come a little earlier than scheduled which would also push an order into the next day.
Shipping times
Since April 2020 the couriers we use have suspended guarantees for shipping times, so even though we're paying them for priority services - 24-48 hours for most of the world - in practice it's often an extra day on top and sometimes it can be longer.
There is absolutely nothing we can do about this unfortunately. If you are outside the UK and it's a life-or-death situation where you absolutely MUST have that passive mult for the next day then... it may be better to find a local supplier.
Saturday shipping
If you're in the UK and you order before 15:30 on a Friday then we can send something for a Saturday delivery (NB: this applies to UK mainland addresses only). The success rate with DPD is about 95% so it's worth a punt most of the time. Please note that if you select Saturday shipping on an order placed earlier in the week, we'll wait until Friday to ship it.
Pre-orders
If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.
If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch if you have questions.
