[QUOTE="Additionally, there was a low distortion mod that Phase Linear first used on the 300 series II amplifiers (see R118 and C108 on the 300 II schematic) that they eventually used on some later 700 series II fully comp amp PL-36 pc boards. This involves removing the 120pF cap (C106/C206) that is in series with the 12K ohm resistor (R128/R129) next to Q106/Q206 and installing a 56pF cap in parallel with the 12K ohm resistor. This will greatly reduce the classic crossover notch and THD levels (particularly at lower volume levels) that you see with many Phase Linear amps (at 1kHz, 1 watt, 8 ohms). In which case the bias should be adjusted to approximately 385mV (which also works better when the 10 ohm resistors are nearer the nominal value of 10 ohms). .[/QUOTE]
Updated Thanks Ed

Full complimentary setup nice score

Pristine amp. I'd likely leave it mostly stock as well.

Three year old thread. Don't know if Ed is still around. Hope so.

Didn't even catch the date. Yeah, hope Ed is still around here as well. Great to have him here, ultimate PL historian and great guy.

Talked to him Last Week, He moved to the East Coast , He had a lot of semi trucks to delivery everything, He also joked that the truck drivers said Wow you got a lot of Heavy furniture and he LOL and said that not furniture!

West coast to east coast, quite a move man.

He also said he needs to sell a bunch of Electronics before he moves again (cost a lot to move)

Post the list here; we’ll do what we can to help!

I'm sure many of us will be lined up at his door to help...and no beer&pizza required!

Really like to thank Ed for his Help,

He talked to me for a very long time and shared a lot of his knowledge.
he said he has not come to this forum for a long time,
I think he would have really liked your comment

I think he said he moved to Connecticut.

Where in CT? I'm here too! (and the state's not that big)

Ed told me he is in the NW part of the state, the swanky area evidently (cannot recall the town but may have it in an email). I think he told me his wife's family is situated in that area.

Bridgewater CT

I grew up on the other side of the river in Enfield.

Now I’m down near New Haven. Hangin’ with the Yaleians.

Just under an hour from me...would be cool to meet him.
