With reading glasses on and despite shaking hands, I completed the high-performance coax SPDIF modification for my Cambridge CXC V2 CD transport. The resulting sound is superb.*******
Caution: This unit contains a dangerous SMPS. To avoid electrical shock or injury, do not open the case unless you are qualified to work with such equipment.
Yellow is mine and purple is Cambridge.
