Thanks Sniffer, I just wanted to make sure before I soldered everything in! I also align resistor bands for the same reason.

Interesting, I work in South Windsor as well Nice of you to offer, but I only need one. I have a Bridgeport at work with 3-axis automation, so that’s what I’m going to use. Fine for making one for me. Maybe a group buy here would yield a higher number of parts and make more sense for a laser...

Location is in the sig About an hour from you, near UCONN Storrs. 1/8” aluminum?

The rail voltages were within spec, but I haven't looked at ripple yet. That's the first thing I check/rebuild on vintage equipment. I'm obviously replacing all the filter caps. There are two 120R and 91R voltage dropping resistors on each rail in the PS that should be looked at, as well as a...

That's my plan as well, a Winter project. I paid $250 for my C-1 last week as a pawn shop find. I thought that was a fair price for an unmolested example. I did see someone repaired three traces with buss wire, so maybe it was touched at some point. Did the factory do this kind of work to...

I modeled the jack plate in 1/8" aluminum, so now I just have to make one and order 26 jacks!

Thanks. I‘ve been reading all the threads I can find on upgrades. I had to use the Wayback machine for some of the posts over at the Carver site as they don’t exist anymore. Some however were never saved so they are gone. I also like the mod someone did of changing to an IEC inlet in place of...

I just bought a C-1 in decent shape to go with my PL400 that I just finished rebuilding. I’d like to get rid of all those cheap RCA jacks at the same time I’m doing a re-cap. Does anyone either sell the plates or have a dxf/step/igs file for the design? I can make my own with the CAD file or...

So it's not just me :)

Looks great! Timeline for availability? I'm trying not to rework my original faceplate! I assume the the attenuaters are just wired inline with the RCA inputs? 100k?

Thanks, time to get some…

Is that RG316? I have the green/black twisted pair on my 400 and I’d like to change to coax.

I always bring mine on the plane for travel or vacation. I used to always bring my Bose Quiet Comfort headphones, but they are obviously a lot bigger. Is the “couple of months” for your experience, or are you speaking of mine? I‘ve had the UE IEM’s for about six years now, no complaints.

My Wife and I both bit the bullet and had the custom IEM’s made for us by Ultimate ears. We only got the two driver (balanced armature), I think they go up to six now! A little expensive at about $400, but they obviously fit perfectly. They are the only things I use with my portable digital...
