    The auto correlator's noise reduction is exceptionally good. A friend has digitized many 15 ips 1/2 track "safety tapes" passing it through the 1000 before the DAC. You never hear hiss and you never hear the correlator doing its thing. I'd rate the expander as so-so. It isn't as good as the...

    Sansui RR QD 5500 on Craigslist.

    The Sansius look nice but aren't high performance. If you need a Sansui reel, I have a mint SD7000 in original box with dust cover for sale.

    Phase Linear 400. Five available

    These are original series 1 metered 4 fin amps. I think one might be 8 fin. If someone has an interest I can look at them closely and tell, for example, what the service history might have been. Obviously a WOPL revamper won't care about the original outputs or the driver board. I know I have...

    Phase Linear 400. Five available

    I see a new restoration thread here on these amps. I just received two more for consignment, so I have a variety that goes from 100% stock never blown to parts units. The lastest one has a home made wood cabinet and is a fuse blower. Check with me before going fishing on ebay.

    BINGO! Finally got 'em!

    Check the original 5,7,10, and 12 Polk woofers B4 u buy. The magnets separate causing the voice coil to rub. If the woofers are ok, apply a bead of JB Weld epoxy between the magnet and frame.

    Well hell...

    Years ago TH server cost was about $200 per month, but today TH membership has grown significantly, outgrowing its ad support revenue. I am happy to donate with no strings attached. Bob, if you do the HP amp kit thing I have some interesting 6AK5 tubes branded Hewlett Packard that might be...

    Looking for phase linear 400 VU meter analogue

    "That's not the meter you're looking for." "That's not the meter we're looking for" Why is it Storm Troopers speak English, and they all are the same size?

    Do we have a photography guru on site?

    Digital MOS camera senors respond to infrared light, and shift it to visible red. Do some research into green filters, or if they exist, and infrared filter.

    Any Lazarus Mono Tube Amp Technicians here? Mark 3

    Mosfets are probably ok since the amp runs, but has distortion. It probably has a 12AU7 per channel

    What the hell am I going to do with this?

    Good point about the grease. You get covered. IIRC Bobby used weak TO3s on the low rail and beefy ones on the highest.

    What the hell am I going to do with this?

    They can and will blow up, so install an in-line speaker fuse.

    What the hell am I going to do with this?

    I'd save up for a pair, then send the faceplate out to a shop and mill a cutout for a nice big PL VU meter. bridge 'em you'd have a mono bloc PL700 (sort of) anyhow, we tried listening to these in the store when it was new. The amp does do 200 watts, however it has sensitive protection...

    Phase Linear 400 Meter needed

    Murphy's Oil Soap cleaned off the smoke, which came from the lamp holder rubber. This meter is a Dixon, Inc brand with the movement at the bottom. Bezel is 4.6" wide and 4.1 " tall. The housing has openings for 4 lamps. It works just fine.

    Variacs N Stuff

    Yamaha used to have national service training. One year, the B6 and "X power" were both introduced. B6 looks like Darth Vader. It has a Carver magnetic field power supply, and is rated at 250w/ch. Yamaha set it up on loads and plugged the power into a 30 amp variac. They had the amp running...

    The End of Pink Floyd...?

    Waters was much harder on Richard Wright than the article mentions. Wright was responsible for the 4 channel effects, tape loops, etc that broke important ground in the Atom Heart Mother days.
