So what other hardware changes are there besides some rectifier (I think a 4-pin one was changed). I can't remember if I checked for that in mine.
Anything fairly easy and cheap to change ? Did they change any chips ?
They changed the whole front PCB. Layout is better, and not sure what changed besides the rec. I think Rob has some photos posted somewhere.
There are older mentions about the output terminals being bad. Banana plugs falling out etc.
Are the issues fixed on new units?
The newer terminals are good, but not standard 19mm spacing. I think it was only the earliest releases that had issues with the terminals.
