iMod iRiver with Black Gate NX Hi-Q
A long time ago I "imodded" my IHP120 - BlackGate HiQ 47uF caps direct from line out. I got quite a lot of DC on the output, and that scared me enough to solder the tantalums back in place. Then I discovered that there is DC on the line out with the original caps as well. The DC disappears after I connect line out to an amp or phone, probably just discharging the caps. I never had the energy to redo the mod, and since the DC scared me to not plug in my expensive phone (HD650), and since all my amps are DC-coupled, I never got the chance to evaluate it.
Has anyone else done this? What did you experience? Should I redo the mod, is it worth the effort?
