Send Arcam a email asking where you can get a service manual, just say you have one for repair, Arcam normally send you the service manuals free of charge in pdf

Thanks LEO
Have sent email to Arcam so heres hoping i tried this with marantz some time ago for service manual never even got a reply from them why do some company's invite you to contact them for these types of info and then not bother to reply to the senders
Cheers

Nice one Colin!
Shame it wasn't a Alpha5/5+, I know those units inside out
The Alpha6 uses a complete different dac and audioboard

Hi Leo
Well had a good listen to this Arc am alpha6 CD player last night some good blues’ stuff and bottle wine it was sounding fine seems to have a very laid-back but detailed sound
Just some general thoughts on tweeting this alpha 6 first up damp the case
Upgrade PSU with faster Diodes and Better Caps i.e. Black gates ???
Change op-amps the 4560D is unknown too me and replace the op27 with some thing better
Or could just leave it alone
Open to all suggestions especially on the op-amps
Cheers
Colin
