Mod your Beresford 7520

[StanleyB]

stan, how many units of this limited edition caiman would you be making? i am definitely interested in trying it but don't think i have the funds to afford another dac right now.

I am going with the flow. If there is enough long term interest I can always make a 2nd batch. I don't see it as a big money spinner though.
The Caiman PSU, which is suffering from a production delay, will transform your current TC-7520 sufficiently anyhow if you also do the MCL5/6 mod without even having to replace the NE5532. So don't feel left out in the cold.

Actually my rock is being remodeled, I'm renting a swamp at the moment.

Many a true word is spoken in jest !! Just because you share it with other alligators doesn't give you the right to snap at every one you come into contact with. Chillax - we won't bite you, why bite us?

To GazJam,
Oh dear, it looks as if I'm going to have to do some snipping after all
Cheers,

On the subject of the Caiman, forgive me if this has already been answered, but why the LM4562 instead of the THS4032?

I haven't got the time to offer every combination of opamps on the market. If people don't like my choice then tough luck. Get a TC-7520 and plug in whatever you want. I have kitted out the the Caiman with what I want.

Guys help out here because they want to, not because they have to.
Its a good bunch on here, but maybe its bad form after only 11 posts to come on here and try to be ..........

Lets try again, we're all friendly on here

Congratulations matey !

You've been on here for five minutes and have started insulting people already.

The quote is just one from a number of slights your postings seem to contain.

You haven't even had the decency to say hello in the entrance hall - you'll find it at the top of the home page.
Drop the attitude and you'll get along fine here - if you can't drop the attitude then you should crawl back under the rock from whence you came.

Lingling - may I be the latest in a line of people queuing up to point out that your rudeness is not acceptable here - I'm sure this behaviour won't be tolerated for much longer if it continues.

At: http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?t=17 are these words & others.............

Arete; Virtuosity and goodness.

Eunoia; Goodwill to those you address.

Phronesis; Using wisdom and knowledge in a practical way.

I'll be using the above as guidelines for how I use this forum, I hope you'll agree.


Things we really like here:

Friendly people.

Differences of opinion discussed sensibly.

Pictures and lots of them!

Humorous banter.

Liberal use of the smilies. etc etc


Things we don't like here:

Defamatory comments about any manufacturers or dealers.

Defamatory comments about any other member of this forum or any other hi-fi forum.

'Willy waving' (i.e. boasting about one's system in a monetary value sense).

Swearing excessively. The occasional bit may slip thorough, but nobody wants to hear 'f this' and 'f that' all day long.

...............which you should read carefully and then decide if you want to remain here to take advantage of the wealth of experience and friendly atmosphere. This is what makes AoS different from the places that you seem to have learnt how to relate to other people.

Please have some respect.

Easy there, no offense intended. I was actually wondering what sonic or other qualities made you pick the LM4562.

[StanleyB]

I picked it because that's the one that has been tried and tested and found to be the best bangs for bucks by the various people who used it in their TC-7520.

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

See how far you get with a kind word?
