Eros Phono / Re: Eros2 low voltages

« Last post by blue360cuda on Today at 03:41:41 PM »

Alright!   Thank you Thermioniclife and Paul!   Got the new parts installed and she passed voltage testing with flying colors.  More importantly, wow this Eros2 sounds fantastic!  The 604s are so revealing and this phonostage is absolutely dead silent and crystal clear. Very impressed! 

So, what's next? 300B or 2A3?

It's quite possible that the 431 regulators may need to be replaced on that side of the board, but you can power it up and see.

That's It, those are in the wrong places. Would powering that way damage anything?

MonAmour / New 2A3 recommendations

« Last post by Suger on Today at 09:12:48 AM »

Hiya

So it would seem that the time has come to replace the 2A3s on our NewAmoirs, as the original Sovteks are starting to show signs of wear.

I wondered if anyone had any recommendations for a nice replacement? We don’t rotate and it’s our only 2A3, so I’m pretty open to ideas.

BeePre / Re: Mechanical Buzz from Power Transformer on BeePre2

If you can confirm the correct address to ship it, I'll get the old transformer returned ASAP.

Thanks,

Bruce

I think it's worth giving a replacement transformer a shot.  I believe we will be getting a fresh batch in this month.

Eros Phono / Re: Eros2 low voltages

« Last post by blue360cuda on Today at 04:43:49 AM »

I flip flop between my Altec 846b's that I gutted and restored with hot rodded crossovers and my completely stock pair of 604G's in the original Altec 17 cabs.   Both very high sensitivity so they play nice with the 2W SEX and my 2.4W Decware SET El84 amp. Was curious to hear for myself what the buzz was all about with 2A3 and 300B amps.  I should have my parts to fix the Eros2 today but currently I'm running a Darlington Labs phono preamp and the old trusty schiit mani from way back.

Could you double check that you have the 2.49K and 249K resistors in the correct places.
