The B-2x looks pretty good after a bit of cleaning, flattening the bottom cover, and replacing the missing feet.
Just finished the new speaker terminals. I initially tried the style that cdfac used but was having problems with the solder joints. I think the type of wire I'm using and the order in which I did the work was the cause of the problem. I happened to have a set of WBT speaker terminals on hand and they use a screw to connect the wire. Since I only have one set of the WBT terminals I cut a new mounting panel from acrylic sheet and only drilled mounting holes for the one set. So there will be no B speaker terminals.
Got the new speaker terminals connected, hooked up the B-2x in my test system and powered it up. The B-2x is alive!
Stolen from a low-end Yammie CDPwhere did you find them feet? my PC5002Ms arrived sans...i'm assuming those would work.
The bottom of the PC5002M will not accomodate feet like I used. I also think that those feet are not sturdy enough for the PC5002M.is it a threading issue, size issue, or are they just not sturdy enough?
No, the B-2x is a BJT design.Is the B2X supposed to be vfet? That 2SA1333 in the photo is not a vfet.

Hello,
I'd liked to join the club as well.
Thanks for that link, Mark! It's a good thing that these threads pop up again from time to time
