ALL of those "audio sender" ICs are horrible.  They're fine for their intended use - to send stereo audio from a CD or MP3 player to a car radio - but amplifying them is a stupid thing to do.

NONE of them are anything like "clean" (despite the Youtube nonsense), and you'd be better off building a proper rig!

I designed a replacement for the 15kHz filters in the Pro IV, using op-amps with gyrators emulating inductors.  It was published some years ago in EDN.  I'll dig it out and post it here.

is this it?

https://www.edn.com/brick-wall-lowpass-audio-filter-needs-no-tuning/

That's the article.  There was a small error in one of the inductor values, but the values given in the gyrator circuit are substantially correct.  However, there's a slightly simpler circuit I now use which I've added to this thread.

It would be nice if he at least looked if it is online every day, surely there is some webmaster or hosting company "alarm" that could email you
if it is down.

Been listening to the Wakefield again for bit.

This site was going super slow yesterday but is better today.

Here you go:  the 15 kHz LPF I've been using lately.

It's down again today with the same thing...Does he want to run a website or not is my question and if he doesn't why doesn't he give it someone else who wants to for the right reasons...It seems to me that he's only running it because he's a builder and seller of nrg transmitters which are well loved by people who have used them!

The "Smartkit" circuit works well enough.  It takes a few seconds to lock, but you're not going to be changing frequency all the time!  The version of that circuit that we used to use had differing filter resistors, switched in by a 4066.  This would allow lock in about 4 seconds, then would slow the filter down by 12 times to allow really low bass through, and prevent bass tilt.It added to the circuit complexity but avoided the normal compromise between lock-up time and bass response.

Oh hey Albert didn't realise you'd made it over here too

Yep.  Zozo pointed me at the site. 

That stereo coder looks prettty good.  If you want a good circuit for 15kHz LPFs, let me know.
