    Trio W38 - Valve Replacement?

    Can't seem to see this pic - please could you repost? I used the Twiddling My Thumbs post as a guide to re-capping my Trio. Made life a lot easier for me.

    LF: rectifier valve 5AR4 (Trio W38)

    I just ordered some output valves from Mr Valve - and realised that I should replace my rectifier valve as well. I could end up killing the new valves - by using an old rectifier? If this is the case - does anyone have a 5AR4 that they want to get rid of? The right hand side channel starts...

    Trio W38 - Valve Replacement?

    Thanks for this! Definitely valuable. The caps were all replaced last year so I have a feeling some of the valves need replacing. Will open up and inspect tonight.

    Trio W38 - Valve Replacement?

    Good evening. My Trio has been acting up recently. Warms up nicely and after a while (10 minutes) the left channel starts crackling. I suspect its one of the valves that have given up or is on its way out. Which ones should I start replacing and which ones can I leave for later (i.e. radio...

    Upgrading car audio

    I went with a pair of splits up front and a 12" sub in the smallest possible spec enclosure in the boot and an amp. Fortunately I had all the hardware already - from a previous car. It's a huge improvement over the previous stock setup. This could be within your budget, depending on the...

    Wantitall prices are eyepopping

    I actually mailed them a few years back to find out why their prices were so extravagant... Their response mail was basically - take it or leave it. On the downside - they make other expensive resellers appear extremely reasonable...

    Cash Converters find

    Was great fun re-capping the 3020. It still does daily duty as my PC setup. Hasn't missed a beat... I think the trick with the bargains - is to never stop looking. Now you know to take a walk into the shop during every visit.

    Cash Converters find

    Well done and an awesome find!! I recently came across a Xonar Essence One - and they guy was shocked that I was interested in buying it. He obviously had been sitting with it for some time. My Series 20 has Motorola outputs too. (http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php/topic,33627.0.html)

    Dastek - Unichip.

    Citi Golf Sonic? Never came with FI so the Unichip won't work... If I was you - I would rather stick in a 2E motor with a Dicktator management system. If its the Chev Sonic - no idea. But, don't expect too much of an improvement with a Unichip - without any other mods. For proper power - you...
