I'm working on PC Part Picker for hi-fi stereo gear. https://buildhifi.com https://buildhifi.com
Some technical highlights:
- Graph-based signal flow: Products become nodes, connections are edges inferred from port compatibility (digital, analog, phono, speaker-level domains)
- Port profile system: Standardized port definitions (direction, domain, connector, channel mode) enable automatic connection inference
- Rule engine: Pluggable rules check completeness, power matching, phono stage requirements, DAC needs, and more
It's getting close. I'll do a show HN on it sometime soon.
- coreylane 8mo agoCool! Couldn't add my Sonus Faber Venere 3.0, maybe they are too old (2017)
- tcaxle 8mo agoThis is fun! I put my (slightly oddly setup) system into it but I couldn't reconfigure which set of speakers were connected to which amp, or reorder the signal chain at all. Is this a planned feature? E.g. I have an integrated all-in-one amp that drives my main speakers but I tap off the pre-amp output into a secondary integrated amp that drives two secondary sets of speakers but your app assumed that my second amp was driving all six speakers and so spat out a warning about power levels...
- wmeredith 8mo agoThanks for trying it out. I've got the signal chain and messaging handling most setups well. This is pretty novel. I'll see about handling it. Do you have a link to this config you would share with me? Use the Share Config at the type right of the builder to get a portable URL anyone can use.
