ps need to stop listening to continue with next upgrades

hmmmm

Allan, that's why I bought a second player! Furthermore I could keep up appearances when I would wreck one

Have you tried the FET's yet? I recon these have to be matched?

Hi Simon,

It's probably my fault but I can't stand this record any longer. Even the cat gets sour when it's on.
Having the new caps run in decently, I just put Crazy Horse' Ragged Glory on. Yeh, rowhide!

Ahh, well I've not done it to death yet, but I'm sure that will happen eventually. I don't have any Crazy Horse but I do like Neil Young - Harvest for testing and of course generally enjoying

I've noticed lots of little noises and on some tracks a noisy background on Diana Krall. I thought this disc was quieter than that, but this player is digging up all sorts of funny sounds now, which I love.

Young is in it as well.

Well, you are actually getting at analog levels now.

Thanks Dave,

I'd like to make the PCB a little smaller and will post the source in the group next week.

That's why I mentioned Young.. Indeed, sounding clichéd I'd say the one word that describes the overall effect is to make the sound more analogue. Of course this doesn't include the problems vinyl has, or the colouration, so it's good stuff.

yes Jaap,
that is why i bought the cd67

the bc550c's in the diff are matched for hfe.
i have some LM394's and MAT02's sitting around that i should try also.

haven't tried fet yet
have some 2sk389's to try for that.

Simon.

Are you daring to suggest that vinyl has problems ??

Go, wash out you mouth !!!!!
