I am building a Phase Linear system for my wife. Now when I say building, that means I can connect the wires to the back plate and plug it in the wall. LOL. The PL400 I have should be looked at and serviced by a professional (after reading several stories about these amps). I have a set of series V Bose 901's a Techniques turntable and a Phase Linear 2000 pre amp. I don't want to damage my speakers with the DC issues I read about so what should my next move be and what are my options to protect speakers and upgrade the amp. I am GREEN in this and everyones assistance is very much needed. Please help.

Thank You

Ed

You have a few avenues of approach. Are you just looking to put a DC Protection circuit in or are you wanting to cure the ills of a 40 year old time bomb? A DCP may save your speakers but a full upgrade may save your house. Your choice.

Doing a full blown upgrade with Joes goodies from White Oak Audio Design, will get you to the point that you'll steal the wifes amp and give her the dregs like mcintosh and such...

In my opinion Perry is the best WOPL mod guy on the site. You will get back an amp as close to MIL spec as a consumer product ever gets.
 
Six PL400's puts you in the middle of the road on this forum. After you get ten or more, people will become mildly interested (and wonder if you are considering selling one or two).

Hmmmmm, I only have 2. I'm such a Lame-O
 
Now you are talking. You have the early onset beginnings of starting to try and have a PL addition. Which is a good thing!
 
I can see now we are going to have to start a 12-step program for PL addiction. Sniff, the first step is admitting you have an PL addiction, YOU DO!
