Title: My spring project
Post by: Slim-Shaddy on February 25, 2010, 11:35:32 PM
Hafler DH500. Everything works. Needs to be recapped. Needs 1/4 inputs changed back to rca. Needs a facelift.
Here are some nudes...

Fo Show my brotha. It's like working on the engine of a new car vs an old. The Hafler is so much simpler and more open.

Sweet.

I'd like to know how that sounds once you get it all fixed up.

Cool, Do you think you can find a pair of rack handles, a new faceplate or
are you going to try and R&R your own?

There are a pair of rack handles on epay right now that I am probably going to buy. I think I'm going to repaint the faceplate and have the emblem screen printed back on. The cover is going to be more of an issue. I am hoping to find a paint color that matches the original and tape off all the screen printing on the back.
