Title: Oscillator upgrade Post by: arvind on July 14, 2013, 09:07:21 am Hi Peter,
Took me an hour & half to install the upgraded oscillators. It went of smoothly thanks to the detailed instructions sent by you. To all the guys who are still with the older oscillators my advice is go ahead with the upgrade. The SQ is significantly improved. There is a lovely warmth to the SQ & the musical quality is excellent. Regards, Arvind Title: Re: Oscillator upgrade Post by: Leo on July 18, 2013, 09:30:24 am Hello Peter,
could you send me the instructions for a diy upgrade. Depending on selfconfidence, heat, Tour de France and other factors I will after reading decide to either try it myself or make an appointment to visit the home of the NOS1 Dac once more :) Leo Title: Re: Oscillator upgrade Post by: JohanZ on July 18, 2013, 10:15:04 am Hi Peter,
I'm also interested in the diy instructionset. Please send me the instructions. Thanks.

Starting with the extensive but also slightly intimidating instructions I went ahead. Allthough I managed to get one of the legs unsoldered from the first oscillator (pff, just keep up normal breathing here, oi oi oi, stay calm , don't grab an axe and destroy the tiny enemy) I got everything installed and sorted out. 55 minutes from start to finish. And presto no fifo errors and even better sound. |
