It has been a busy work fortnight, so no progress yet on my first DAC90A: but look what has arrived....
It was a lucky ebay bid, complete but assumed non-working, from which I may have salvaged the output transformer. Breaking a good set would have hurt, but the poor packaging and rough handling has removed any dilemma! The seller has refunded in full, so his misfortune is definitely my gain.
The problem is, I can't resist a challenge, so I may try to epoxy the case back together and spray in some gaudy colour as I see others have done before. There's certainly nothing to lose. Then I'll be on the lookout for a transformer and a tuning scale. I can see how things might escalate....
Thanks again for all the helpful advice given in this thread.
