Do you have Spongebob boxers by any chance?  Does an ostrich wearing K1000s sound familiar to you?

What did you do to mod the PS1? I own the SCPH-1001 model and want to do some modifications to my own..

I have a SCPH-5501. The power supply was recapped and calibrated, the transport was rebuilt and damped, RCAs were added, and nos ERO MKT capacitors were used along with metal film resistors in line between the DAC and RCAs as the output stage (it operates in parallel with the stock audio outs). I used the good bits (the transport and DAC) while side-stepping the junk. I recommend a new housing for your 1001 to move the power supply away from the transport and DAC. Spend the cash on good capacitors and resistors and you're in business. There is no shortage of documentation on the web for these mods. Be careful with adding a tube circuit. The 1001 doesn't respond well. The sound becomes too rolled off and it sounds like a Bose system! You can use an outboard power supply to correct the problem but at that spending point, just buy an Oppo BDP-95.

That is so cool.:cool:


Cheers! We've been looking for some nice plantation chairs for the better part of a decade. Found these sitting in a huge warehouse full of the most amazing junk ... I mean antiques and furniture. They needed a bit of work, but came out beautifully.



... Thats the WA22 right?


thats the WA2, they look very similar don't they?



Yep, those woos share a lot of similarities. Here's a better picture to help with the confusion.
