Hi All I was recently gifted a PL 700b...
My friend that gave it to me has a fuzzy memory of it smoking on him years ago.
I opened it up and inspected it, looking for the source of the supposed smoke.... Everything looks great....I removed the transistor covers on the back and all looks normal. I am definitely not a tech.... I will bring it to my good Friend that is an excellent tech to check it out.
I plan on doing the DC protection to spare my Polk Audio SDA 2b's first thing. White Oak Board Second and so on until I run out of money or come to my senses.
I AM IN SEARCH of the backlit center logo piece( I have the blue lense). Somebody put a nice piece of hardwood in it's place but I would love to restore it to it's original state , cosmetically Thanks!

The center piece with the Phase Linear lettering? Check with member The Wopl Whiffer, he had some made, even had some made with White Oak 1000 watts lettering in them.
