Musical Fidelity Amp Revived

[nando]

just had a A100 amp fully re-done to proper schematic specifications as it should be, apart from warming my coffee it sounds awesome with my tannoy's the wonder what old hi-fi can do

Hi Joseph,

What's involved in bringing these back to life?
Is it just new caps and bias settings or is there more to it?

B200 is my favourite from that series.

 

[nando]

hi rob, B200 it is still my admiral, but the A100 it is a very good amp, new caps, regulaters higher duty transformer and higher tolerace transistors, the bias setting to complye with the output voltage stability, i have nothing to do but play with nostalgia, sorry rob.

Has this been done using the Musical Fidelity upgrade service or by an independant?

 

[nando]

[Cable Monkey]

[nando]

[nando]

NO, it was not js, it sounds very good but i have enough amps to play with, i am not advertising it here for sale i know better i think, but when i am ready to sell i will do so on the right thread,
