003 ADAT

Postby thephil » Tue Feb 09, 2010 6:24 pm

Ok so it looks like my ADAT in on my 003 has left me for greener pastures.

003 is out of warranty so my question is, who do I send it to for a possible repair? Obviously repairing is going to be cheaper than replacing the whole unit!?

Anyone have any tips or recommendations

Sorry, heard about it but never actually heard one. Good reports however. I think you'd need to send it to the US though.

if you go to the blacklion website, they compare the digi converters with the mods, and you can definitely hear an audible difference.

as for the mod i think its around 700 us plus shipping, dno if the prices have changed.

Yoy can hear a difference or you think you can because you've been told there is a difference? ;)

open it up find the ribbon jumper cable that goes to the adat port unplug it , and plug it back in , (give it a clean if you have something suitable)
if that works send me something ,
if it doesnt thats all the service its ever going to get .

it fixed one of mine at least
