Hello
I have an Audio Innovations L-2 preamplifier that I am planning to mod.
I am trying to perform the modifications that Borderpatrol does for this preamp.
“Fit Hovland Musicap, Os-Con and Black Gate capacitors, rebuild heater rectifier with discrete Schottky diodes.”….” Replace volume pot with Danish Audio Connect step attenuator”
http://www.borderpatrol.co.uk/ai.htm
My questions are:
1-Are the musicaps a big improvement over the existing Jensen paper caps?
2-Is the Danish Audio Connect step attenuator worth the $100?
3-What the Schottky diodes improvement is over the standard bridge rectifier for the heaters?
4- Did anyone perform the modification to the power supply suggested here: http://www.audionote.co.uk/tweaks/l2_preamp_mod_01.htm ?
Thank you in advance
Fernando
