Right I am going ahead with the regulator upgrade and will get Tirna to do the capacitor upgrade at the same time.
Could I have your opinion on the most suitable make (and if you dont mind the reference number)?
Thanks!

Hi Jerry,

I am a bit confused.

We are all waiting for the Murata super reg bulk order and I thought that you were asking Tirna about their requirements before any order was placed?

If they are not interested we can get on with it as there are at least 4 of us waiting to save on postage and it has been at least two weeks.

Could you please let Dave know what's happening so that he can sort it for the rest of us (very kind man).

Regards

Chris

Adrian at Audio Flair might be willing to do the mods as well.

Hi Chris,
I spoke to Jimmy a few days ago to see if there was any more news about an idea he was thinking about. He hasn't progressed it so I am jumping in with the others on the Stan recommended regs mods. Jimmy is willing to do this mod and has said that he will do the capacitor upgrade whilst he has the case open for a very reasonable £10 (plus cost of capacitors).
Hence me wanting to order the capacitors based on what people recommended.
Sorry to have caused confusion, I think we are getting there!

Is this the same as the 7520 -> Caiman PSU upgrade discussed in the other thread?

I have had a word with Tirna Electronics and he'll be doing the regulator mods. After that he'll let me know that the mods are done and that the modded unit will accept the Caiman PSU.

Just a quick note: Jimmy at Tirna is nice guy and knows about electronics - IIRC he was a lecturer at Edinburgh University. He's done some work for me in the past which was of very high quality.
