Could relieve a cook and keep orders coming or field-repair your suit and get you back to airlock still breathing. Machines like me and I have something specialists don’t have: my left arm. You see, from elbow down I don’t have one. So I have a dozen left arms, each specialized,...
In designs where high precision and repeatability after repair is important, it might be advantageous for the circuit designer to choose such a pre-engineered amplifier “block” rather than build the circuit from individual op-amps. Of course, these units typically cost quite a bit more than ...
Lest readers think this preamble is intended to suggest some shortcoming in the component under review, the Accuphase A-300 monophonic power amplifier ($51,900/pair), let me reassure you at the outset: Time and again, the A-300, like Jeremy Denk's artistry, inspired a state of wonder. T...
If you decide to repair the amplifier and you make mistakes, it could cost more than having the amp repaired by a repair shop. If you want to learn more about electronics, it may be worth the extra time and expense. If you simply want your amp to work properly and you have no intere...
If it is determined your product requires repair, you will be told where to ship it and issued a Return Merchandise Authorization number (RMA). This number must be displayed on the outside of your shipping box (use the original packing materials if at all possible). Most repairs take ...

if there is an aggressive recording, because the tube preamp combined with the solid-state power amplifier, in this case, Pass Labs' X250.8, is a perfect match for doing something like that, although, I can't say that I've been able to pinpoint any of this type...
(5) Free inspections and maintenance/repair work are expressly excluded from this limited warranty, in particular, if caused by improper handling of the product by the user. This also applies to defects caused by normal wear and tear, in particular, of faders, crossfaders, potentiometers, ...
One look at any piece of gear that sits on the Repair Bench will prove that these tiny components have all shifted in their ability to perform, many are near the end of the device's life-span. Electrolytic Capacitors in power supplies commonly fail after a brief life-cycle. ...
more to the point, allowing easy access for service. The heatsinks and sides, too, are easily removed without hours of labor. Inside, the surface-mount modules can be removed for replacement or repair. I'd guess that the 1060 can almost always be serviced and/or updated in the field. ...
