Hi hennfarm. I discovered the Sony Playstation 1 (mdl 1001) "Playstation as Cd-player" on the diyAudio forum. Read every single post (is extremely long) and then went to http://dogbreath.de/PS1/index.html for tutorials on moddying the console.
I did all the mods with the exception of moving the ps to a external case or building the external linear ps. I hope to build the linear ps when I better understand how to do it. I also installed better RCA jacks and a male IEC connector. For just a few dollars I have a little jewel which offers up what I image some would describe as hi end sound.
If you embark on this great trip I have several suggestions:
1. Get a pair of tweezers. The SMD's are so small a pair will facilitate the removal of them when desoldering.
2. Get a illuminated magnifying lamp (lucky me I still had mine from my print spotting days); you really need it.

Not in my experience, even vishay bulk foils. - Timbo in Oz 19:10:10 06/30/12 (0)

No, resistors are not directional. nt - Mr. Dick Hertz 19:32:31 06/27/12 (15)

Considering that a fuse (extremely thin piece of metal) is clearly directional,... - carcass93 20:17:59 06/28/12 (9)

Anecdotal "evidence" is what I'm trying to get away from. - Mr. Dick Hertz 07:14:20 06/29/12 (5)

I always used the color codes as a consistent indicator but never really did any trial both ways. nt - Norm 17:54:46 06/29/12 (3)

So if there is anything to this directionality issue... - Mr. Dick Hertz 20:18:51 06/29/12 (2)

Yes, I guess I'm just compulsive. But since I don't really know the direction, it probably is random. - Norm 06:47:34 07/01/12 (0)
