Re: Dynaco mkIII, which source for upgrades or rebuild parts?

I have a pair of Mark IIIs with Curcio quad cap replacement and a Curcio driver board with 2 6cg7 tubes. I really like the sound. Before my updates, I could really tell the high end roll off but with the updates really opened things up. I don't think stock boards are worth buffing out. I haven't heard Uncle Ned's boards but I suspect they are an improvement over the original design.

Since you say you are a newbie, get a board and parts from Curcio, Triode Elec or Wellborne (Kennedy's boards still avaliable?), stuff them and get them installed. Google can also help find info.

I have another pair of Mark IIIs that needs updates so I'm looking at other options. I've always followed Douglas's posts for inspiration but haven't decided on a design. Plus I have two more in the wings.

Working on my 5.1 Mark III system ;-),
