Duet Mods

Anyone got any tips for popping the top off the Duet receiver?

First peel the big rubber foot off the bottom.

I suppose Duet mod's are right around the corner.
Someday soon, the rubber foot mod will cost $$$.

The duet was designed by highly educated and experienced engineers who would be the first to tell you that it isn't easy to do. Now along comes you, who has to ask how to get the box open, thinking that once you do, you'll be able to "improve" the device. Do you see the irony in this situation?

My questions is this: what is the source of such glorious self-confidence and how can I get some? You shouldn't be looking for "mods" for audio gear, you should be running for president!

If you're in need of self-confidence, I can't help you.

all kit is built down to a price ....period

the builders are unlikely to have fitted the very best components available as this would make the unit very expensive to market.

I'm only speculating as I've not had the opportunity to use a duet but if it comes with a "noisy" psu like the sb3 then that could be the place to start.

Oh yes if you can't work out how to get into the unit....its telling you to leave well alone ! IMO....

This describes most of the audiophile scene.

Since the Duet's digital section is the same as the SB3, I plan to do the same upgrades I did to my SB3, which came from this excellent thread:

and produced a very nice improvement.

Well then by all means everyone stop what you are doing and just be happy with what you have! Don't even try to improve it because you are doomed to fail!

I think it is safe to say that anyone struggling with opening the unit may not get the improvement(s) that they are hoping for. Yes, anyone can make it different, but different is not the same as better. Even if you use my work as a reference.
