    ANY OTHER AMPLIFIER BUILDERS OUT THERE??

    Greetings Mark, and welcome! Thanksgiving weekend usually takes up most of my time, with family and all. I think that might be part of the reason you haven't gotten many responses, because there are quite a few builders here on this site. Nice pictures and great work BTW! Thanks for sharing!

    Surprisingly, this amp works very well and the Midland meters are still fully operational! But it is good to know that you and Lee still have a few spare units available, because these old meters will be put to the test when this amp is Wopl'd! :tongue1: Thanks for the information. I've...

    PL 400 purchase

    Cool, I thought that's what it was for. Thanks for the info! Yeah, smoked quite a bit I see, they're probably still laughing over this! I guess the quality control folks there had their share of ganja as well, letting this slip by! :smokin:

    Thank you, thank you...and now for my next trick...:binky: LOL! Forgive me , but I'm unfamiliar with the "backplane" term. I see it is placed in the back of the amp though, does it take the place of all the goodies that are attached to the rear panel of the amp?

    No problem there, hole drilling is my specialty!:D Are these holes specifically for the "star ground configuration"?

    PL 400 purchase

    NavLinear, You are correct, this is a 4 finned version, but I know nothing about the "magic transformer", perhaps you could enlighten me? The 100v 15000uf reservoir cap MPN is LNR2A153MSE, Digi-Key PN 493-7326-ND. It is a perfect match, dimension wise, for the original caps. I was a little...

    PL 400 purchase

    Here are some nudies of my recent PL 400 purchase. I'm wanting to WOPL this in the worst way:cool:. It appears that I can't use the White Oak dual caps, but I found some Nichicon 15000uf 100V screw caps on Digikey that would fit perfectly. The circuit board has "PL400C1" printed on the backside...

    PL400 transformer

    My moniker was given to me during those hazy days, not crazy in the same way anymore! But I love how crazy you guys are about the WOPLs. I'm looking forward to building my own with all the experience I can pick up here. Thanks for welcoming me!

    PL400 transformer

    Thanks for your quick response, and for the welcome! I guess the sticker appliers must have been the same guys hanging out with me back in the day :smokin:! Now I can move ahead and start looking into the WO mods for this amp!

    PL400 transformer

    Greetings all! I had a question about my amp and no question that these Phoenix forums have the "Phase Linear" gurus:hello1:! I recently was virtually "given" ($90) a working PL400 amp by a gratious gentleman. He said it had some issues and he did not want to spend the time or money on...
