[QUOTE="sundownz, post: 4498261, member: 549523"] The caps after the power supply transformers are one item that I have specified differently from the "normal" build. The first run of 1500Ds came with 80 volt caps (usually capable of 20% tolerance) - later models come with 100 volt caps. The voltage across these caps was a bit too high for me to be comfortable with only an 80 volt rated cap... granted, not a single 1500D that I am aware of has every blown a cap. But, hey, better safe than sorry - IMHO. Have also tooled the new SAZ / SAX heat-sink that adds ALOT more cooling capability. If you buy a brand new 1500D now you will be getting the new style heat-sink. [/QUOTE]
