Cal Audio Labs Icon MK I


Does anyone know about the upgrading procedures? I am looking at a used unit that started out as an icon mk I. It was sent to factory to have the powerboss upgrade a few years ago. Would it have been given the icon mk II upgrade as well? The owner says he knows the processor was updated but not sure about the icon mk II status. Reason for concern was all the transport problems involved with the mk I. If anyone might have any knowledge or could help it would sure be appreciated. Thanks,

I got my answer.
Just talked to the seller and he checked the paperwork from cal audio. It was updated in 1996 and did have the transport updated along with the powerboss upgrade. And he was charged seperately for both upgrades. Thanks again.
Well not sure if it was the mark 2 upgrade or not. I recieved the player today and the upgrades are as follows:
1)Laser pick-up assembly ICN/TRCT/ARIA...........151.00
2)Spindle motor SJGDRF310T-4..................... 27.00
3)HDCD/20-bit upgrade assembly...................450.00
------
Tax................... 48.67
------
Total..................676.67

Also on the front of the player there is a sticker on the window that says [HDCD]

These upgrades were done in august of 1996.

There is also another service report from 1993:
1)Replaced central processor.......................40.00
2)Update kit(updated the player)...............No Charge

To me it seems as if maybe the player was updated to icon mk 2 in 1993 and upgraded to powerboss in 1996.But the icon mk 2 i use to own had a detachable power cord or so i think and also had the icon mk 2 marked on the front.Where as this player doesnt have a detachable power cord and no mk 2 markings on it whatsoever.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what this player might be. Is it an icon mk1 upgraded to a icon mk2 with powerboss upgrade? Or is it an icon mk1 with just the powerboss upgrade?

Any comments appreciated
Thanks alot
