The discrete TC-7520(SE)(+) line output

**Recoil** · 14-10-2010, 14:40

Please help me to understand this mod correctly.. This PCB is basicly a discrete amp stage for the headphone output? Can it be used without the passive mod? And the line out remains unaffected?

The discrete stage is for the fixed and variable output. The headphone stage has been tweaked at the same time, which will be most noticeable by HD650 owners. The hD650 is infamous for its slightly slow bass. The discrete PCB tweaks gives the HD650 a lot more punch.

Hi Stan. Can you please put my name down for one of these discrete output boards ? I hope I'm not too late.

Cheers.

Me too please Stan

Any updates on the progress being made Stan?

I imagine he is so busy slaving over 200 circuit boards and a hot soldering iron that he hasn't had the time to reply.........

Entirely my fault for the delay. I filled in the delivery date of the fitting instructions and packing wrong. I put 11-10-2010, which means the 11th of October in the UK at least. But my Far Eastern supplier understood that to be the 10th of November

. If everything else runs smoothly I should have the goods ready for shipping a week or so after the 10th.

But every cloud has a silver lining

. The £ has been so good against the U$ lately, the initial estimated price of £29.99 (plus VAT and shipping) is more likely to be around 20% lower

Thanks for the update Stan. (Should be run in for Christmas then!

)

I wonder how many other manufacturers would pass on a saving from exchange rate fluctuations to their customers...? (I bet many are quick to go the other way though!)

Have you seen the price drop on the Caiman & Caiman+ on my site lately

. That has gone down by about 15 to 20% at the check out in the last 6 weeks, in line with the exchange rate.

Stan is the man

Excellent ETA for me anyway; I should be back from Spain and eagerly await the postman by the door

Edit: oh where are my manners: also thanks to George Bush the younger for giving us those exchange rates
