    Hi all,

    I'm toying with the thought of improving my girl friend's CD player, a Harman Kardon something or other.

    I've seen a number of upgrade clocks. Any thoughts/experience on which to choose?

    Marcus, if you don't want to shell out loads, then a Trichord clock 2 at £50 or a Net audio clock (the mini clock) the normal one is in a large efi ally box, far too big for most players :rolleyes: I think it's around the same cash range, also consider a seperate psu for the clock circuit, the net audio is actualy very good for the cash again around £50 mark, I have used both to good effect.

    My thoughts too......

    Most players react well to PSU upgrades better caps and Diodes if you want more info PM me.

    so what exactly is a clock upgrade?
    and would my dated marantz cd52 benefit from one?


    cheers,

    Don't forget there a great number of other tweaks that can be applied to the cd52 that are as cost effective.
