    Vintage Phase Linear 400 Power Amplifier – Refurbished (On Ebay Now)

    It looks like the pc board has a discrete front end (no I.C.'s). NOTE: Phase Linear PL-36 p.c. boards used either LF-356 or LF-351 I.C.'s which were noisier than their earlier series one p.c. boards.

    Sutt's "Fugly One" WOPL Transformation

    Mark, I did some testing on (2) 700 series 2 amplifiers that Don G. owns. Both have a fully complementary output. One was a WOPL with a rev E board. The other was a Phase Linear (Clair Brothers) 700 series 2 amp. The Clair Brothers had a PL-36 pc board with a factory low distortion mod (which...

    The first one in the ebay ad is an Edmonds version. The second one I am not sure of as I don't have a copy of this one. The 3rd one (OM400-3) was when they were in Lynnwood and is actually a gray cover. Ed

Both channels driven at 1kHz into 8 ohms at 1% THD should be around 440 watts. Both channels driven at 1kHz into a 4 ohm load at...

    Yes there are differences between the Edmonds, WA and Lynnwood, WA versions of the Phase Linear 400 series 1 owner's manual. I have second generation photocopy of the Edmonds, WA manual. I am also missing pages 6 and 7 and am unsure whether there were any pages beyond page 8. Ed
