| Anyone have a pic to show me where to replace HEXFREDS in a Cary CAD-120S? "Two caps only."(per) I'd want to keep the capacitance within 20%(and I always prefer the more side). I've already put over $800 worth of Duelund coupling caps in the pair, not to mention a few other little expenditures. This will take some ... | |
| Anyone have a pic to show me where to replace HEXFREDS in a Cary CAD-120S? You answered while I was editing my post. Figured the TCs were the ones referenced. I was wondering how you accommodated them(nice work). | |
| Anyone have a pic to show me where to replace HEXFREDS in a Cary CAD-120S? grannyring- Where’s a good place to find 1200uF/450VAC(or thereabouts) film capacitors? Seems they would have to be huge and very expensive. ie: Eight Clarity TCs in 600uF/450V caps would take up over 67 square inches of landscape. I do love the... | |
| What's your favorite album cover art ? Blind Faith/1969(I was much younger then)! | |
| Anyone have a pic to show me where to replace HEXFREDS in a Cary CAD-120S? You've got mail! | |
| Anyone have a pic to show me where to replace HEXFREDS in a Cary CAD-120S? Follow your hot and neutral power cord leads(within the chassis) and among first connections, you’ll find three diodes, connected in series to each AC lead. Three will be facing cathode to AC supply lead and three: anode to AC lead. Mine had a sin... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... @oregonpapa: What Charles said, +1! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Too bad there’s no Stereo Review, EarsR’goN blog site, to attract what must have been Julian’s fans. Such would at least divert some of the nonsense. Sneers! | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Julian Hirsch would be SO proud! | |
| Crossover capacitor voltage ratings.... An interesting article, which includes a treatise on amplifier voltages and output power ratings, keeping in mind that your crossovers may often be facing your amplifier’s peak output voltages(or, possibly, clipped signals) on louder music passag... | |
| 12au7 or 12ax7 What, "preamp"? The Prologue 5 is a push-pull power amp. It's nine pin dual triodes are phase-splitter and gain(driver) stage valves. | |
| 12au7 or 12ax7 Give Kevin a call, at Upscale. No one will be able to offer better advice, regarding which will yield the most, and what tubes will best provide your favorite aural flavor. (https://www.upscaleaudio.com/pages/contact-us) | |
| Disaster OUCH(I feel your pain)! Best wishes on a fast recovery and complete system restoration. | |
| Connecting Speaker Cables to Dynaco ST-70 I always installed Vampire or WBT five-ways on Dynaco tube amps. Simple to remove the existing terminal strips and use the same openings, without butchering/modifying the chassis at all. Insulate the unused x-former leads. MUCH better connection t... | |
| Pre Amps which sound similar to "older" Conrad Johnson Tube Pre amps? You can generally achieve that old, warm coloration by loading a preamp with NOS British valves, like from Mullard, Ediswan and Brimar(UK made/not rebranded). |
