RE: Changing electrolytics in Audio Research D115

Posted by mondial on June 26, 2009 at 03:27:56:
DEAR BAMBI,

MY TWO CENTS WORD OF ADVICE BEFORE USING THE VARIAC FOR YOUR D115 W/C YOU HAVE NOT USE FOR A LONG TIME. IF YOUR AMP IS EQUIPPED W/ A RELAY I WOULD ASK SOMEBODY TO BYPASS THIS BEFORE USING THE VARIAC. BECAUSE IF THERE IS A RELAY THERE IS NO WAY YOUR AMP WILL TURN ON UNLESS IT SEES 100V IN ITS RELAY IN ORDER TO TURN ON THE D115'S POWER SUPPLY.

HOPE THIS HELPS,

MONDIAL
