I'm close to compete with a mod I did of an Eico 2080 amplifier (see before & after shots)
Some highlights:
• Tone controls removed
• 6CG7 cathode follower added before final to prevent loading down phono stage & to drive motorized potentiometer
• Infrared receiver / circuit to provide remote volume control and muting
• Front panel redesigned for simplicity, using standard rack front panel
• Four inputs retained; tape input & output removed
• Coupling caps and out-of-spec resistors replaced. Original cans are fine (but I may replace anyway)
I'm helping a friend to do about the same with an ST-70. We may offer a kit of front and back panels . . . stay tuned.
