    I think anything tired and old has already been removed from this.

    Here are details of Audiocom mods done to date.

    1x Invisus 2 regulator for +5V digital supply.

    Multiple Rubycon ZA bulk decoupling capacitors.

    Multiple Black Gate NX Hi-Q HF decoupling capacitors.



    AUDIO BOARD

    2x Black Gate NX Hi-Q input regulation bypass capacitors.

    28x Black Gate NX Hi-Q for coupling 2x TDA1541.
