Finally, an affordable CD Transport: the Shigaclone story

Thanks, will do.
Also looking at the original power supply board, looks like a bridge rectifier, with each individual rectifier bypassed with a cap.
Is there an advantage to this?
Is anyone using the original board (and transf.), and just replacing some of the parts?
thanks,
Paul
 
Dr. H:

I think a big part of the improvement of this unit is taking the drive from a hollow thin-walled plastic box ans placing it in a more stable 'plinth'.

Electronically it is greatly improved (and what you suggest would sound better than the internal boom box electronics and speakers); however I think maximum gain can be had through improvement of the mechanics as well as the electronics...
 
What's the latest cheapest source of EZ31 or EZ51 ?

The sources in my country ask 99 Euro's for each, which I find is too much to buy one plus spares... I read some posts 2 years ago when they were still available for half this price or less...

Where o where?

A friend of mine ordered EZ51 last week at EET NORDIC (google), he received 3 boxes a few days ago and they still have +50 in stock.

He will start this project soon and obviuosly I will help him if he wants/needs.

It will be a Peter Daniel version-like.....Small...Simple...and Shocking...😎
