    What plugs/connectors are you using on Phase Linear amplifiers?

    Small ty-wrap around the base of the banana jacks, and another from there over the Pomona, and they can't fall out . . . (pro audio trick).

    Just received a WOPL 700 II from Lee in a cabbage box!

    This was always a fav of mine as well, but running more like 2700 watts into a 7+1 DTS/THX surround system with mainly EV and EAW speakers . . . and 120" HD projection.

    Just received a WOPL 700 II from Lee in a cabbage box!

    The first week of snow here in "da Yoop" is entertaining as well . . . We are a University town, and all the downstate and foreign "jeeniooses" that think they have winter driving skills and suitable vehicles have a very harsh introduction to reality . . . (as kids, I recall once sitting on a...

    Just received a WOPL 700 II from Lee in a cabbage box!

    In Dallas (my prior residence) it seemed like 3 visible snowflakes resulted in the locals stripping the grocery stores bare, and heading for the ditches. For a northern native, it was like watching a Benny Hill skit (well, unless you had to be out on the road with them . . . ) *ZERO* concept of...

    What plugs/connectors are you using on Phase Linear amplifiers?

    Yup! I use the Pomona parts in that style, and never had a loose one on anything. (Seems like the offshore junk parts are some goofy undersize . . . )

    Some advice please

    You are lucky in that regard . . . . the -11a service manual out there is a lot better than that for just the -11. (The -11 manual still shows to be a prelim and has some vague/undpcumented areas, and some part numbers/values that are reversed compared to the schematic . . . ) Note that the...

    Some advice please

    Yeah, I have both a 200MHz scope and a 2GHz spectrum analyzer, so good there. My FM generator is a Heathkit we build in the 70's . . . should still work, but need to verify. The Carver manual asks for R-L phase test signal, and I think the gen only does R+L . . . I need to dig into the docs to...

    Some advice please

    I bought a used/dead one to add a second unit to the house for my wife (originally just for the faceplate, since mine got pretty scratched up in a move, but decided to fix it), and first it had a down multiolex stage (sorted cap) and then would not release muting (yet another shorted cap), so...

    Some advice please

    The shop . . . I have a lot of other parts and spares in another room as well . . . (a bit of a mess right now, but about to finish the TX-11 and get some order back . . . )

    Some advice please

    Thanks. All I had done there was disagree that removing oxidation by light burnishing of a mute relay was viable when the contacts were accessible, and that those don't typically switch under power, thus not typically burning. The rest was backing my opinion to the admin, who more or less stated...

    Some advice please

    Thanks. It really shows the difference in site admins, place to place. I made a similar tone post on "thecarversite" regarding restoring relays (that conflicted with Nelion always replacing no matter what) and got banned for it, if you can believe that. Bench pic inbound next time I am in the...

    Some advice please

    I guess that I will "step out" of this line of thought just a bit . . . . If these are series-II, the control boards have most of the issues worked out, and the mods to ensure no latchup or oscillation are less than $1 in parts (4x 1N4148 diodes and 2 180 (or so) pico farad caps). Electrolytic...

    phase linear 400

    Back in the days before the world got it's head stuck up it's own butt . . . I wish that life had a rewind button . . . .

    Acoustic Technologies M-400

    I've been in the pro audio world since 1983, and have never seen XLR on speakers. EP5 is common, and it looks like an oversize XLR, but not XLR. Then again, the DJ community has been "doing it wrong" for pretty much thier entire existence . . . Prior to speakon, it was EP5 (Multi-way) or often...

    Acoustic Technologies M-400

    The flux capacitor lives . . . . Seriously, though, you might want to consider a refit to Speakon. I seem to recall that they migt be the same size . . . Not a terribly high powered amp, but certainly can't hurt.

    PL 700 Series 2 wanted . . .

    Any chance anyone has a PL700 Series 2 available for sale that is complete but in *stock* condition? Looking for a Phase (or better yet, Clair or other pro variant of the 700S2) that has *NOT* had any mods done to is as a project. (Not terriby interested in refurbs either - mainly stock - but...

    The internet is more than old enough to take home from the bar today...

    Still a) Not wrong and b) No idea how it came up as a current post earlier today . . . (I assume that the site can get that right . . . )
