Hard to beat the Acurus George...and I love the way it looks :-)

A very nice one...

Yup, down over 120dB across the spectrum. Good job George

Very obscure, only see box sets available and they are pricey. Nice sound, one of those bands I never heard of before this thread. Easy to listen to. Good discussion.

Looks like George had trouble sleeping last night, thinking about his stepped attenuator...

Wish he would get to the point

In a word, yes

Hi Mark I find in life that there is always something else to be done... :-)

Yup, sums it up Mark...

it borders on dangerous...

Correct, either 22 or 22.1 ohms are used. This is a non critical resistor value.

After you disconnect (with power off of course) the gray wire going from the control board 6L point to the backplane board pin 6 so you have isolated each board from one another, do you have a short on the control board from 6L to ground? Or do you have a short on the backplane board pin 6 to...

pin 6L is the output of the amp left channel meaning that you have a short from output to ground somewhere.

CSN on MOFI SACD. Very well mastered, loving it...

you likely could go as low as 7.5pF in those locations George and it would square up even more. The 33pF value was definitely not well chosen. It is probably what they had in the parts drawer at PL at the time.

Your setup has come a long way Mark. Looks great

Each half, meaning the upper or lower half of the output stage is nominally current limited at 10A. As the output approaches the rail voltage on the positive half of the signal, it can deliver approximately another 1/2A into the 8 ohm load. Ditto for the negative half cycle. That translates...

Very...

Yes, top of the mark for the UDP-205. Well designed and top of the line components used.

Agree, it beats the other players I have and handles any format except HD and UHD
