Hi

For whatever reasons refuses to accept my photo(s) even though reduced to less than 2MB.

The layout of the board is the same though as your photo.

Regards
Colin

I would look at the bank of four 6800uF 63V, two 2200uF 16V and the two 100uF 63V on the left hand side where the connector from the transformer plugs into the board. This is just a guess.

Why not while the board is removed change all the electrolytics? If you think some have gone dry, remember they were all installed at the same time.

How about some photo’s of the DSP5k’s (Does 18 bit differ from 24?).

BTW, the photo in Duncan’s stuff doesn’t look like 5K...??

The amps are the same whether 18 bit or 24/96.

Photos are on Duncan's site. There is a long thread on changing the resistors which Fiddler put some photos in.

I think it could be this photo?

DSP5000 Electronics

Very arty with what looks like a heat sink, but the electronics look accurate.

Oh, OK. Yes, that’s the photo I’m referring to. The artsy and huge heat sink panels looked nothing like what could fit in a DSP5k - or what I know of one, never having opened mine as yet.

Starting a bit off topic but where would this photo have come from? Why would they present it this way? Marketing and/or artistic license?

Anyway, it’s not really an accurate representation with respect to the top and bottom sections in a DSP5K... but best I can tell, there is no need to remove the bottom section (as described as an alternative for the 5200)?

It's an out of context DSP5000 electronics board. The electronics of the 8000 look different to that.
