Never saw a diagram so unfortunately I think you’re on your own there... Reflowing all the joints is quick once you take it apart, so that’s probably a good start. Never got hum from a bad cap, only hiss, but that may be a matter of acoustic semantics :) The upgrade coupling caps (if you have...

Depends on your unit. The early production units had a grounding error on the pcb that required cutting a trace on the pcb to fix. I think most of those were sent back and fixed by Joe, but if yours happen to be an unfixed one, the hum should not be developing; rather, it should be there...

For the two I have had, the rear switch is the input selector, not voltage.

Second that, very cool case!   Currently running my Jade with Audyn Cap Plus as coupling capacitors and very happy with that. Lots of speed and dynamics to go around, especially when driving with Tungsol 7802 and Telefunken 12ax7, a combo that rocks, IMHO...   Also checking the thread from...

I want one too, so please sign me up as well! Could you PM me shipping to Sweden (roughly)?
