    400 Series II (standard) repair

    Thanks! I would not have been able to figure that one out.

    400 Series II (standard) repair

    OK, thanks for the clarification. Here's another question: Can anybody tell me what the circled components are in the photo below? I think I figured out the rest of what I'm seeing. Thanks!

    400 Series II (standard) repair

    I have a schematic for the PL400 series 1 & series 2, but neither of them look like the one you show here. In my series 1 schematic the bottom row transistors are labeled Q12, Q14, Q16 and Q18, (left to right). In my series 2 schematic they are labeled Q108, Q109, Q112 and Q113. So how many...

    My New Early Model PL400 w/ 4 Fin Heat Sink

    So how does it sound?

    My New (old) PL400 --how to upgrade?

    ...i.e. if both are fully modded.

    How much difference is there between a fully modded PL400 series 2 vs. PL400 ?

    My New (old) PL400 --how to upgrade?

    Understood--that was my first double-indented bullet point, ("control board in quasi mode and listen for awhile").

    My New (old) PL400 --how to upgrade?

    So best order if I don't want to buy anything that I later don't need is: DCP Cap upgrade Control board control board in quasi mode and listen for awhile OR control board in full mode, and commence the backplane upgrade upon completion (I assume there are plenty of tests to confirm the...

    Thanks for that info. I've ordered the board.

    What is a "DCP"?

    My New (old) PL400 --how to upgrade?

    Well I was assuming the back plane project was already going full complementary. So can all the upgrades be done without going full complementary? I.e. is going full a separate project in itself, but more easily done as part of the upgrades? Related question--is the new control board usable in...

    My New (old) PL400 --how to upgrade?

    Can the backplane upgrade work without upgrading the control board--eventually I will do the whole thing, but I want to parse it into manageable projects so I can at least finish something sooner. So could it work as follows: Project 1: Backplane + output transistors (is it 6 of each?) Project...

    Have you completed the upgrade successfully?
