Hi All!
My late 44 (s/n 034981) is hooked up through a 405.2 to a pair of cheap 4 Ohm speakers and I am having difficulty replicating the occasional sharp crack that I was getting more regularly through my Spendor LS3/5a speakers.
The 44 was last serviced by Quad in 1995. I carried out the 'Erratic input switching' mod and mistakenly used a 47uf cap instead of a 4.7uf cap. Later after use it stopped completely, and it is now working again after replacing the relay and blown zeners 404/5 and the 47uf switching mod cap.
I have been using the 405.2 regularly with a 33 and have had no trouble with it.
2 hours and not a crack in sight. Does any one have any idea what it may be. I want to sell them but don't have the confidence while I have this issue.
Many thanks
