Default Quad ESL2805 [was: And so...]

I went direct to source and have been discussing it with Quad this
morning. I'm told that this is probably the mains transformer and a new
one is on the way. I'll know more once I've had a go at trying that.
T... I'll decide when the transformer and info on how to do the
replacement arrive.


A couple of replacement transformers arrived this morning. Along with some
63mA fuses. The next step is for me to go out and buy some curtain rod as
this is a tool required to take apart the 2805s! 8-

Nice to see that Quad have remained as of old in various ways. The parts
were sent asap, with apologies and helpful advice. And dissassembling /
assembling their equipment tends to be a bit 'around the houses'.

I still remember how funny it seemed at the time how you had to open and
close the box of a 405! The 2805 seems like that on steroids. :-)

Slainte,

Jim
