    I purchased Eye in the Sky on SACD not long ago from MOFI along with IRobot. Both great discs on that format too.

    MA legalized it around 2018 and did a reasonably good job setting up commissions to create rules and regulations. MA is very good at that. MA law permits you to grow your own up to 5 or 6 plants, kept out of public view. Many do. Dispensaries were set up pretty quickly in towns that...

    The downside of the aluminum plate is that it forces a tie between the DC ground of the preamp and the chassis ground of the preamp. Carver specifically designed one and only one connection point between these 2 ground systems. Using the aluminum plate defeats this scheme. The WO C-1 RCA...

    Another Phase Linear 3300 Series 2 Pre Amp

    I think it was recognition of too much weed smoking on Halloween. Don't destroy them, you will want to put them back in after debug.

    Another Phase Linear 3300 Series 2 Pre Amp

    To defeat the power up muting circuit, pretty straightforward, remove Q103 and Q203 temporarily. I also think the headphone jack defeat is possibly a culprit, that looks sketchy at best and not clear how it is implemented. Phone jacks are notorious for the nickel plating oxidizing and getting...

    Yes, less likely than at a solder joint connection but yes.

    Another Phase Linear 3300 Series 2 Pre Amp

    It could be anywhere on the board that has an intermittent. However, it is not the tone pots if you have the switch in the OUT position. I would recommend a careful look under magnification of all the solder joints. They are approaching 50 years old...

    Another Phase Linear 3300 Series 2 Pre Amp

    It is most likely that the physical motion of turning the tone pot restored a marginal PCB connection somewhere rather than the pot being involved. This is fairly classic behavior on some PL preamps, particularly the infamous PL4000 preamp, marginal solder joints.
