In addition to new kit for early 2011 (high end valve compressor / analogue mastering equalizer) spare time permitting there will be an upgrade to power amplification.
The stock UK hand built MOSFET power amplifier I have in reserve (which already sounds very good) is going to undergo surgery to bring it up to mastering status.
Modifications will include input opamp buffer upgrade to an audiophile grade chip replacing the existing 5532 chip. Electrolytic capacitor replacement using high quality Panasonic FM Low ESR varieties and replacement of existing ceramic capacitors to NP0/COG high stability varieties.
This amplifier will be powering the PMC IB1's with 250Watts RMS per channel, the already excellent audio specifications of the amplifier should be improved upon, increasing resolution.
