Marantz CD63 & CD67 mods list - Page 1843

badrisuper · 15th September 2012, 03:11 PM

I think its 1/4watt. Can anyone confirm that? I am planning to some good components to swap. I am going to use BG STD 220uf 16v in opamp, DAC and 2 BG STD 1000uf may be in power supply and one BG STD 4700uf 16v also in power supply. Between how many silver mica's I have to use totally and what are positions? I have Mundorf 4700uf 40V and 3300uf 63V in hand. Can I use it in power supply?

Thanks
Badri

I have grounded the crystal and it seems to be a worthwhile mod. I may now do the other mods associated with the crystal.

Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum and have read with interest on modding the CD63.
I have follow some of the suggestions from this forum and made certain modifications to my CD63 which are so far successful.
Recently I tried to supply the servo controller Q104 with two 5V regulated supply. I lifted R122 and R123 and fed a 5V supply to them. Unfortunately the CD drive did not read the table of content of the CD. Is there something I have missed out ?

R122 & 123 are 4.7ohm resistors. If you connect your new regulated supply to the wrong side of the resistor you have removed, you will get the result you have. If you connect to the other side it should be ok.

This is my experience anyway.
Rob.

Thanks Rob but I am sure I have connected the supply to the right side

I forgot to mention that the two supplies are not independent and only one 5V voltage regulator is used.

For D801-D804, D811-D814, D851/854 and DN01/02 Can this http://www.partsconnexion.com/product1289.html diode be used?

Thanks

Have you fixed it?

Puffin · 19th September 2012, 05:02 PM

I added a JLH Ripple Eater to the circuit I have created for the voltage regulators. Not sure what it is doing at the moment, but it doesn't sound any worse!. Adds a further 4,400uf of capacitance, which can't be bad.

If you have not heard of these - details below

Rock Grotto JLH Ripple Eaters

I bought bare boards for £3 each
