New findings on my Grundig CD7550 player after having had it apart again, for anyone who is interested. Out of respect to this CD104 thread I posted it here CD 7550 differences from a CD 104
Regarding the last seller on eBay, that guy does these mods as a business seller. I remember an auction where a costumer tried to sell a CD304 MKII after it was poorly modified by this Karl Grünwald guy. I have attached the pictures from the auction, unfortunately the pdf with the auction details I too large to post it as well. Interestingly, this Karl Grünwald guy seems to change his eBay name regularly…

I've made a thread on my website concerning the restauration of the CD104.
Philips CD104
You can see a link to this very good thread here.
French language, but a lot of pictures... 😉

I've also recently bought a CD104 & did the NOS mod posted here & sounds very good....it's a 220V unit but here in Malaysia its 240V supply....anyone managed to convert 220V to 240V? read in some previous posts of this attempt by some members but no further results ....also much appreciate if anyone could forward me a service manual for CD104 & CD304 II as well cos the CD304 II is on its way from Germany....my email is lkk3110(remove this)@hotmail.com
Thks in advance

Lee,
Options are
CD104 - 110/127/220/240V changed by changing transformer connections
CD104/01 - 110/127/220/240V switchable with the help of the voltage adapter
CD104/07 - 117V with a special transformer.
So, which version have you got ?
See attached for the transformer wiring.

Hi Jon
thks for the diagram.Think mine is the 1st one, plain CD104....will open it up & check. From the diagram, for 240V input, I'll just need to connect to Pin 5 instead of Pin 4, right?

test all voltages in the powersupply after doing that and please tell about the changes. there is no need to cahnge the transformator from 220 to 240 volt. thats around 10% different. have you messured the real voltage? i mesured 218 volt and it should be 230 volt ...
hi
my unit is CD104/60 & looks like the pins are numbered differently from Jon's attachment.
The ac is currently connected pin 1 & pin 4. I measured the resistance & it shows 61.7ohm. But when I measured between Pin 1 & pin 5, its only 30 ohm. Pin 1 & 2 also 30ohm. But between pin 4 & pin 3, it measured 67.7ohm. I believe the correct conversion should be pin 4 & pin 3. ( pls correct me if I'm wrong) The transfo views looks just like in the attachment but the pins layout is different, guess philips changed it for cd104/60.

pin 5 is in opposite of pin 13 (the single standing with the green wire at primary on all modells). but better change not.
guess I'll leave it at 220V, rather than blow the transfo.....just recapped the PS & opamp coupling caps, running in now....later will try opamp rolling, 2134,4562,827,2604...
anyone with cd104 & cd304 II service manual?

For the manuals, have a look at:
Bank serwisówek - Audiostereo.pl - strona 15
Last time I had a look these rapidshare links were still working.
Concerning the change from 220V to 240V - just work according to the manual and measure all voltages after the mod on the transformer and on the powersupply board. I did so on several CD204, CD304 and CD304 MKII and it was really straight forward.

thks for the manual....will take another look at the conversion again...guess after the conversion, better to measure the voltages without attaching to other boards....

Hello,
I just recently found a CD104 at the recycling center and it is in need of some repairs.
Could someone please send me the service manual.
