Anyone have/ordered the Job 225?

Hi Guys,

Good read those 4 pages.

Have anybody tried already to lower the gain of this amp by changing the resistors? I would be very interested in this mod as my speakers are 95db/w and my Pre pumps 3.7v so I am afraid I will be adjusting the knob using microscope... (no remote).

Thanks

Sebna, a faster way might be to add some Rothwell adapters to the rca inputs of the job. At least that way you wouldn't have to open it up. Obviosly now you're adding something else to the signal path. I wouldn't do it, just throwing it out there. It does seem that 9 o'clock would be loud and 9:30 too loud.

Thanks Devilboy for coming back on this.

I have same approach as you. Would prefer not to add anything to the path if not an absolute must, hence the idea of moding the internal circuit.

I am afraid that all the volume regulation with this sensitivity and output of mu Pre is going to close in 1h span (so lets say min listening levels at 8 o clock and blowing up the speakers at 9 oclock).

I guess I will have to try and see for myself.

Pre is in analogue domain and it is Eximus DP-1.

Cheers

This is Ric Shultz's website called TweekAudio. He's been modifying stuff for a very long time. He loves the Job 225 and lists some mods he can do to it. Don't know if any of the mods listed will achieve what you're after but it's worth a shot to contact him and ask.

Hope this helps.

Crap. Meant this link. This is the link to his home page:
