    On Wednesday night, I saw an ad in Facebook Marketplace for an interesting looking amp with meters. The guy used it for DJing along with a set of likely DIY speakers. I contacted him and he replied, and then, nothing. Finally, I tried again last night. I could come in the morning. Just before I...

    Hi I've found locally a phase linear 400 that has been serviced for 350 and a Fisher 400c for 450 with wood case that is working except for the FM radio. Is the phase linear worth 350 considering its been worked on and is up to spec? Also, I the buyer won't allow me to test the 400c because of...

    Hello Audiokarma, Last year about this time a started a WOPL 400 project, and it lasted until spring of this year. I bought all the kits from White Oak Audio, assembled them, then rebuilt an old beat-up Phase Linear 400 amplifier. The results were spectacular. Fast-forward a year later, and it...

    My New Early Model Phase Linear 400 w/ 4 Fin Heat Sink

    I’m the proud owner of a new “old” PL400. It seems that it is an early model with a 4 fin heat sink configuration. It also has fuse type lamp to illuminate the meters from the top. This meter illumination apparently prevent me from using the White Oak Audio LED upgrade. Let me know if there...

    Phase Linear 400 - DC offset problem

    I've recently replaced the output transistors on one channel of a PL400 I'm working on but I now have a big DC offset. When I got the PL400, it arrived with no main fuse. On DBT (with fuse) it drew too much current. Measurements indicated that three of the connected outputs on one channel were...

    Hi I recently bought a PL400 needing attention. One channel has original drivers and outputs (RCA 410 and XPL909). The other channel has some different components - Drivers are SJ2741 and the outputs are a mix of four PL909 and two MJ15024 - not good. Arrived with no main fuse. On DBT (with...
