RE: Revox B226 dirty treble




Some pics of the recapped player.

I know most of you will shout in awe seeing the output coupling caps standing back to back in a strange way above the PCB. I know it looks very unprofessional. What I did was make some standoffs made of 7mm slices of cable isolation gain, the two legs of the caps going to the PCB trough it, and the caps laying on top of it. It feels solid enough, sounds good, and I don't have anymore this afterthought of having a polar electrochimic on the signal path. It's reversible of course, and I plan to buy a second B226 decoder board on the big auction site or somewhere else in case I wanna sell the player, or in case this board dies from my own hands (wich won't happen I hope). i wish i could take closer pics.
