Dynaco ST-70: upgrading using mod kits or replacing existing parts?

128.195.185.215

Posted by newbie on July 24, 2002 at 10:26:20

1st, thanks for those who answered my post below. that help a bit!

I now need to decide what is the better use of money for restoring/redoing the Dynaco ST-70.

option 1: new tubes and 1 or more mods from CurioAudio.com Which ones would you choose for the money?

option 2: replace all the components except the large cap, PCB's, transformers and Chasis? I would get new Sovtek tubes, Audiocap Theta caps, metal film resistors. I figure I could do all the parts for ~$200

What would you do? Option 1 can get much much more expensive...probably to the point where I would just consider getting the Consonance Ella...but others here may have another opinion.
