Quick question Joe, I have at least 50 lbs of new copper plumbing elbows, know anybody that can turn them into 4 fin heatsinks?

Maybe you can sell them and turn the cash into heat sinks.

All my Ser 1 builds were quasi's also..

I do not Ron. The copper they use for plumbing is generally the not grade for machining. C145 is tellurium copper and is generally used where copper machining is involved.

I was using hard 110 for mine..

Do you have to use the backplane boards with a WO driver board? Couldn't he make it full comp using the original style wiring and just connect that to the new driver board and keep the original chassis and such ?

 

[laatsch55]

Yes he certainly could...and Ed has done so many times with the stock boards. I don't know of anybody who has taken a Rev D board in full comp mode and converted a stock backplane setup, but it can be done...

So it's time to get started then. Not to many changes . You need extra wire to 27 connection on the control board I think. I may have a schematic. I do have series two comp schematic.

Suggest adding a mirror ferric bead

I sure I could but where can I buy the heat sinks made for the amp. Then there is the little problem installing them as I would be in territory I don't want to be meaning I would have to start taking apart stuff I know nothing about and no correct tools and also gadgets to test with. I would love to have Silvara/Sally to get copper fins, copper lined interior and maybe a new copper faceplate. I would imagine the copper would have tp be coated with something so you don't end up with an uglyassed tarnished out amp (think how an old penny looks after while)
