Trichord Clock3, Clock4, and PSUs

[michaelab]

I picked up my Teac T1 transport last night turned out the seller was a guy who works at the Audio-T store in High Wycombe and knows merlin...seems like he's in that shop every day Top bloke anyway and nice doing business with him - he has a pair of Dynaudio Countour 1.3s aswell which means he must have taste

Anyway, back on topic. On the mods I want to do. Discussed this a bit in the "Silence Please" thread but wanted to ask a few questions about the various Trichord mods available (feel free to reply WM ).

Thing is, the Clock4 and Never Connect PSU are pretty pricey: £149 + £175 :cry: Now, I already have a Trichord digital output board and PSU in my old Marantz and was thinking of maybe re-using them instead. The digital output board (DOB) is basically a Clock 3 with a digital output section tacked on.

So, how different are the Clock 4 and Clock 3? Also, the "Never Connect" PSU from Trichord looks very similar to the PSU that came with my DOB - so, how different is the Never Connect from the older Trichord PSUs?

Michael.

That would be because the manager is a good mate of mine and I only work part time

SJ was gutted having to sell the T1, he's also trying to sell the Contours to raise some cash if anyone's interested

You might want to speak to John Cheadle, he really konws his onions when it comes to the Teac.

Cheers
