Well looking at some second hand scm-11's, but ive heard excellent things about the scm-12's, especially their 'legendary' bass driver. Probably pick up a pair for 500.
But ive found a pair of scm-35's, so similar to yours but the older version, for about 875.
Il be buying the lyngdorf sdai 2175 amp first, then taking it somewhere i can demo some ATC's
LOLHi Simon,
The biggest issue with grados is that they absolutely fail to block out any noise. You need to be in a quiet room to properly enjoy them.
The meet really didn't suit headphone listeners really. Never mind.
Next time, I'm sure the focus will shift from speakers and amps to overmodded CD based sources
Cheers,
Phil

Hi Ray6h5c said:
I am following your instructions with care and after replacing the Digital Reg in my CD53, I want to replace the analog PSU regs.
I understand now that "LM317 3-terminal positive voltage
regulators 1,5A 20W" and "LM337 negative volt reg 1,5A 20W" are the best choice.
After reading about them, I found that they are not fixed voltage as the digital psu one.
Can I replace the stock 78 / 79M12 with these or must I use any other fixed voltage ones ?
Also, can you please identify the ferrites used in RD01 / 04 with a Farnell code ?
Best Regards
Ricardo
Re: Re: Marantz CD63 & CD67 mods list
Hi Ricardo,
The LM317/337 are variable voltage regulators, you cannot replace them directly. You can try a search in this thread on 'raygulator'. There's also a schematic and a few pictures on my website in the Marantz CD57-XXL section.
The code for the ferrite beads is 242-500.
Regards,
Ray

What did you think of the scm11s, ive heard that the mids on the older models are obviously superior, and the highs are a little recessed ?
Il tell when i audition some.

They were superb. Sat on crappy stand running on a £12K naim system. The bass was huge for such a small speaker (11L cabinet).
Simon will tell you what it was like.

Chris, here's a tip for improving your soldering skills. Just find some old computer motherboards or video cards, and practice running solder along the chips with the iron and using a soldering braid to remove bridges. Sometimes, these boards will even have unpopulated pads that you can solder surface mount resistors or capacitors on. This should give you a good feel for it.
