UPDATE! - The 'Universal Tube Output Stage' has been installed....

Posted by Mikey on January 18, 2010 at 08:50:05:
and is making sweet music!

Here are a few photos of the installation:

I nestled the power transformer behind the existing power switch, after relocating a few circuit boards.
The transformer was fastened to the chassis with one 6MM bolt thru the bottom.

To fit the tube output board, I had to remove the video portion of the player. This was not a problem
for me as I use the unit for CD playback only. An aluminum plate was fabricated to mount to (4) newly
vacant mounting tabs....in turn, the board was bolted to that plate.

The output signals were taken to a pair of chassis mounted RCA jacks installed into some unused holes.

The sound is very good! Smooth, extended frequency response, and very musical....MUCH better than stock!

Thanks for all the help Brian,

Mike
