Lee's White Oak 1000

[laatsch55]

While I'm waiting on parts for Sutton's White Oak 1000, thought I'd throw one of Joe's boards in mine.........cause I sure miss em!!!!!

Got the boards ready, got the caps, ....... shit, by tomorrow night we'll be rockin.!!!!

Uh oh... time to get the TV and other "items that will be destroyed" outta the basement again..

 

[laatsch55]

Yep!!!!!!!!

 

[laatsch55]

This one is about as clean and unmolested as I've ever seen, like it just came out of the factory!!!

 

[jbeckva]

Man, I just plunked some $$ down on a soldering/desoldering station. Time ta get serious on all the "stuff" I have waiting...

 

[laatsch55]

Me too Jer. I just sold a PL 400 and a Pl 3000 Series II, and a pair of Pioneer CS R- 590 speaks all local today. And I still have a lot to go!!!!

If one's good, two is waaaaay better I'm starting to like the looks of those more, and more, you said the meters were kinda slow tho, right?

Great pics

 

[laatsch55]

The 700's not as slow as the 400's, not nlike the Spec's where there's a separate board and PCB just to drive trhe meters, but it'll do.

[laatsch55]

GFot involved with that amp and nobody screaming for my attention. Almost got done before I passed out too!!!


Six wires to go, then new mdrivers(On-Semi- Mj 15024's) and new outputs( On-Semi- MJ 21194's)

 

[mlucitt]

Two amps upgraded at once? You are my new hero!
Here is how I attacked the heat issue in my 700B:

 

[stuwee]

But you have to plug that in, isn't there a way to wire it into the amp itself?

 

[ksrigg]

I like the idea of plugging it in. That way you can move the fan unit from amp to amp, and if you're like me, that is cool. You never know what amps you might be using at any given point in time.

Lee, you have some gorgeous PL 70B's er....White Oak 1000's there. Sure do look pretty. I'll bet they blow you away.

I'm still on the hunt for another 700B to attain the symmetry that is so Fung Shui!!! Gotta love the looks of the 700B. Never a prettier amp, IMHO.....

Listening yet????????

LOL.. there went another 5 percent of Lee's hearing... Did ya rattle anything off the walls? I want to hear some stories of associated destruction!

 

[laatsch55]

Here's the kicker. This one I had not even plugged in yet. After deciding to do a quickie on this one i slapped it up on the bench to get some baseline figures to c ompare with. Both were bought for 100.00 each as non - workers, thisa one was indeed broke...................the BR was toast. This was as close to a plug and play as I've been. Was 5-1/2 hours getting tnhis one converted. Of course no DC protect, no wire rebundling, No LED's etc. BUT , no glitches, no hangups, powered on, set bias, load test, current sharing test, put the sheet metal on, had Jani do her thing and hewre we are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
