Hi, new oldie

[step77]

Haven't posted much as i tend to get online the end of the working day. i have a Marantz CD63 modified by a Marantz engineer with Tentlabs 3 or 4 clock and black gates etc and other bits and pieces. It does sound wonderful but it has no on/off. I don't like the power supply so how can I do the removal of the cable and fit an IEC. I don't really want to cut bits if I don't have to. Any ideas? I can supply a decent digital image as electronics isn't my strong point.
Ta.
Steve.

To do a proper job you are going to have to make a hole on the back to fit the IEC.

Found thread

Hi, thanks. Found the thread and it's what I needed. Sorry to have not looked myself. Can't afford the Fien but the Bosch 180e looks good and it's only 60 quid on Amazon. Now I only need a good IEC but that's another job
