C*rr*m Mod?

[mr.twistyneck]

Here's where I documented most of of this mod http://www.twistyneck.net/cm.html. The ohmages I built into my test bed are notated there.

The resistors I used were wirewound chassis mount Arcol resistors. I think I used either or both 100 or 150 watt resistors, with the ohmage values I specified at the link above. If you go to Mouser's site, and search for Arcol Resistors chassis mount, you can get to a selector where you can narrow down choices.

If you go with chassis mount, you'll need to mount them to a big hunk of aluminum with heat sink crème to dissipate the heat.

Thanks Twisty, I will no doubt go with the Arcol's, and I have already acquired a nice finned aluminum heat sink and thermal paste.

The big red stick resistor looked interesting, maybe I'll try it also!

Go for it!

Also rather than C*rr*m's Mod, try running the head dimed between 60 to 79 volts. stick a 6band eq in front as well and A/B it.

you'll probably like it.

WOW, yeah this works great! I used this 3K-100Watt resistor on my 50 watt. Sounds great!

Excellent!
