Evening everybody, Just wanted to take the time to write up the benefits of a very well restored and improved Version 4 D6C. I know lots of voices say the version 1 with the pointy head is the best D6C version, however I took a very short drive over to see Debbie (Deb64) today to pick up my Version 4 that she had just finished servicing, restoring whilst also replacing the Op Amp with NE5532. This version, cosmetically being very good, almost new looking. It is a really late model missing the Amorphous head decal at the front with an unmarked, I assume 75312? head. Now I've listened to this for the past 3 hours and have to say sound quality is absolutely exceptional, the music in the best way I can describe has some real gravitas and depth better than my current unrestored version 1. I need to stop listening to it now and get on with my day, but it keeps pulling me back! Just wanted to share and I guess in order to get the very best out of these units is say, irrespective of what version you have a service is essential. Many Thanks Debbie for another absolutely fantastic restoration.
It's fantastic to read such reports Now... you know what has to be done... the other version 1 that you have will need the same treatment one day. Right?
Great minds there Hyperscope! Yes absolutely, she kindly agreed to bring that one back upto spec and left it with her too. Something to look forward to in future months!
