CSP3+ capacitor uograde
05/17/23 at 13:03:08
 
So I'm sending my CSP3+ with original poly caps (signal & 25th Anniversary bypass) back to the mothership for Miflex signal and bypass capacitors to be installed. Sarah tells me it's s 3-4 week turn around on repairs/upgrades. I thought it best to get her ready now for the Sarah 300B amp arrival, although that's a ways off.

I'm looking forward to hearing the differences when she returns to the line up. In the meantime, my trusty old Eastern Electric MiniMax will be performing preamp duties. I've got it burning in now, so in a day or two should be sounding marvelous. The MiniMax (pt. to pt. wired) is a solid performer.

Roger….the 3-4 week turnaround for repairs/upgrades is what I was told as well, when I acquired about sending in my SE84C+ for the full upgrades.  I will probably send my Zen amp back next month.  

Please post your your impressions once you get the CSP3 back.  I’ve been itching to send in my ZSTAGE for the upgrades as well…but the thought about going without a preamp for that long is not going to be fun.

Wow, two week turnaround on new caps. Looks like it will ship tomorrow. Then some burn in time.
