Quick Update. I used to own a G68J, but I sold it rather quickly in hindsight, and didn't make the most of the opportunity to see what I could do with it. I'm modifying other HH'ers gear now, so further opportunities are presenting themselves again. I'm working on another G68J, and it isn't quite as straightforward as I thought. There's lots of space - enough for the PSU & amp for many receivers, so I wanted to fit something more generous than the FG NMC-305. Unfortunately, the cooling fan and the motherboard supports get in the way of the obvious choices like the generic HCBB-75W and CP-498 supplies, so I did a trial fit with the HDBB-105W. The big 5V smoothing cap fouled the fan, so I moved the cap from the base to the side, and look what happened:

I have a couple of other things to try, and I'm pretty sure the FG NMC-105 would do a good job, but in the meantime I'm pleased that the new 818 has a linear supply as well. Roll-on the 861v8!
