Studer A80 and Studer A827 Full Brake Overhaul Kit
BRAKE OVERHAUL KITS for most Revox and Studer tape recorders. Includes bands, linings, springs etc.Are your brakes binding, noisy or not braking properly? This could be due to worn or damaged bands, worn brake drum linings or both. The brakes on Revox and Studer machines is robust and well designed – essentially very similar from the early 60’s to the late 80’s across most models. This kit uses brand new components to overhaul your brake bands and drum linings. Brake bands are laser cut top grade stainless steel. You use your existing metal ends of the brake bands. Full download instructions on how to do it and get the best you can from your brakes are included and support if you get stuck or are unsure. If in doubt, ask Pete.Usually brake linings wear first or get contaminated (even the slight oil from your hands will compromise them) and our brake lining kit is all you may need (see other listings). However sometimes the brake bands may become crinkled, damaged or just worn, in which case you need new brake bands. If you replace brake bands it is silly not to replace the brake linings as well – and hence why this is a FULL kit.You use your own old brake band ends as these do not wear and can easily be straightened and made ‘as good as new’. Then you simply rivet the new bands in place using a normal inexpensive riveter (available at most tool shops). Add the acoustic tape (a later Revox and Studer upgrade) and clean thoroughly before reinstalling. We even include some extra rivets in case you make an error and also 2 brake band circlips in case you lose one these tiny parts as sods law says you probably will!BRAKE BANDS are generally a common size (length) for groups of models. I show hole centres length of the band in mm for each model. ie 185mm, 189mm, 201mm etc. If you are unsure you should take one of the brake bands off and measure the hole centres end to end with it flat. This will then make it easy to make sure you have chosen the correct kit. Be careful with:A77 had two different lengths B67 mk1 is shorter than B67 mk2A807 mk1 is 201mm. The mk2 has a slightly different brake end but I am unsure of whether the length of the band changes – you need to measure it!The early Revox 36 series have some quirks as well.G36 uses bakelite drums. You need to be a bit more careful with fitting the liningsA – C 36 are different to E-G36 as far as brake band centre to centre length. You MUST check the best one to get. GENERAL INFORMATION ON OUR KITSOur kits contain specially sourced, new, freshly manufactured components from reliable manufacturers whom we have been dealing with for many years. No NOS (new old stock) or 2nd hand items!! This particular brake kit is a DIY kit and uses your existing brake band ends.Our own Nagravox Service Manual Instructions.

ABOUT NAGRAVOX specialists in Revox, Studer and Nagra tape recorder overhaul and upgrade kits and parts. I definitely DON’T consider Nagravox as a typical beady eyed Ebay vendor trying to get the highest price and hocking anything that will sell. Indeed ALL my kits and parts are buy it now not auction for that very reason. I love and work with Revox, Studer and Nagra vintage gear every day. Its great equipment and I love helping other enthusiasts restore their gear. I back up everything offered with a help desk via email, phone or Skype to make sure what you buy from me works and is installed and set up the way it should be. Confusion and problems always occur on old gear but I am there to help you through it. I don’t just sell stuff to enthusiasts – I help with solutions and make things as easy as possible whilst still retaining the high quality and integrity of the original designers. I am the only vendor that does this. Others of course may copy me, as they have already done in the last 2 years (just look at the other vendors suddenly offering overhaul kits on Ebay – hmm …. some with dubious white washing machine capacitors and below spec suppression caps !!). I also am now re-manufacturing parts specifically for Revox, Studer and Nagra usually using small specialist manufacturers in Europe, Australia and Taiwan to my design and specifications. Some of the more complex triple can high voltage capacitors for example I personally hand make for the F36 / G36 machines and old A40 amplifiers. One enthusiast restoring a F36 said to me about a year ago – surely you cant make much money on those considering the time and effort involved? He is right of course but the satisfaction of knowing every time I sell one of those kits, a F or G36 will be brought back into this wonderful analogue world of ours, frankly tickles me pink! Revox A77 VU meters now remanufactured and better quality that the original. Motor parts such as low friction washers, shims, brake felts, lubrication felts etc – all newly manufactured for Nagravox. Solutions that make problems go away – see our new NAB deluxe overhaul kits with reel spacer disks. GOOD IDEA – you bet. Why hasn’t anyone else thought of it – who knows – its not rocket science. Will people copy me – of course – that’s life. Am I worried – no not at all – ts all good for the analogue tape enthusiast who wins all the way. Gee – I do ramble on a bit – don’t I! If you are interested in our other endeavours please look at Nagravox or Laudarra. If you want to have a chat or chin wag – comms me at Nagravox – only a pleasure. Nagravox has a workshop and store in Sydney Australia. Of course.. if you are ever in the vicinity please visit me – there is always a good cup of tea or coffee and the chance of a chin wag.Some blurb about me and why I do this. Some people think I am a nutter! Sometimes I might just agree! My name is Peter Mony. I am according to the government “a senior citizen” – indeed I get to ride on all the trains, busses and ferries around Sydney for $2.50 flat fee a day (a perk of being ‘old’ I am told). I live in a stunningly beautiful part of the world in the Northern Beaches on the outskirts of Sydney Australia and am a tertiary qualified engineer and scientist. I have worked in a few countries around the world for various companies in many different roles including in later years a few of my own businesses. I love vintage audio equipment and have over the last 45 years been involved in one way or another with it. I started Nagravox in 2010 after 3 years of “hard thinking” (my wife thought I was asleep on the couch). I reckoned that I would love to see more of the old Revox, Studer and Nagra tape machines restored to their former glory. I didn’t want to be just another Ebay vendor hocking parts at the best price I could get for them. In 2011 I sold my specialist electronic manufacturing business Powerform Controls which was and still is successfully involved in HVAC controllers and electric motor speed control. This allowed me to have time to do those things in life which don’t necessarily have to be about making lots of money but rather being led in an ambulatory manner by ones passions. I love playing classical guitar, classic cars and restoring old electronic gear. My wife and lovely daughters think I am nuts but they love me anyway. In 2016 I moved to a dedicated workshop and premises not far form home on the stunning Northern Beaches of Sydney. In my “man cave”, as my dearest wife calls it, I can indulge a hobby and passion reliving my youth in the 60’s and 70’s when I was a youngster working as a recording studio technician and building valve amplifiers for friends. Why did I start in kits? Over the years restoring Revox’s, Studer’s and Nagra’s and inevitably running the gauntlet of finding information and spares, the engineer in me has often asked the question. “Why cant I just get a professional upgrade kit with all the bits and pieces that are really needed”? There is a high degree of frustration in sifting through the hype of vendors sales talk, doubt on individual components serviceability and age and the need to shop bit by bit with many of the “bits in between” not available. One inevitably makes compromises and sometimes quick fixes often leaving a niggle of doubt and sadly sometimes not the results one was expecting or indeed all the promo hype intimated. Service manuals are obviously great but there is always those little nuances not fully explained, aspects seemingly missing and your particular fault symptoms not listed. Inevitably I have found that with old equipment replacing just the item that is obviously faulty or worn isn’t always the end of the story or quick fix one had hoped for. So, on this basis and in a spirit of doing the job properly the first time, I have put together a series of what I call upgrade kits with all the necessary bits and pieces that are likely to be worn or old and need replacing. Each kit is designed to address an important functional aspect of ones restoration or repair eg a kit for the mechanical tape handling aspects which includes not just a new fresh Revox factory sourced pinch rollers but also the guide bearings made of stainless steel (not el cheepo skate board ones). If one of these needs replacing, you can be sure a lot of the associated componentry will be in a similar condition and also soon need replacing. Doing one without the other doesn’t make sense! Why fault find a leaky capacitor and replace it when its likely all electrolytic and tantalum capacitors, some of which may be 40 years old, really should be replaced despite what they may test like under low voltage test conditions. What a hassle to have to source 50 or so odd value capacitors and then worry about the quality of cheap and nasty ‘old stock’ components that have been sitting on a shelf for years or fake Chinese made components! My upgrade kits are thus formulated to include all the bits likely to need replacing that are commonly related. Most of the components that make up a Revox or Nagra tape machine were top quality in their day and a fair bit of the mechanical gear with a good clean up and lube will function fabulously for another 30 years. Yes, I do and can sell individual items but would prefer that you do the job properly and upgrade functionally related sections at a time. These are the ones that will likely be degrading your tape machines performance. My full kits have written explanations and guide notes with pictures to help you. I call these Service Sheets. The bits and pieces that go into the kits have been researched extensively, assessed carefully for suitability and tested in many restorations and projects. They are not just ordinary cheap replacements but something that will last and is of an appropriate quality and grade. Capacitors I researched extensively in my previous business when I needed a high grade electrolytic with low leakage current and long term stability for a particular timer application. I went through 22 different manufacturers before eventually accepting just 2 of those as being of a suitable compliance to specification, performance and quality for the application. One was Japanese and the other Taiwanese. I have used this invaluable experience to source and put together the full electrolytic / tantalum capacitor upgrade kits. Likewise for the lubricating oil for the robust Revox and Nagra capstan motors. Don’t be fooled by some of the Ebay and internet hype. For Revox there are specific oils you use depending on how old the motor is and you do not mix them nor convert from one to the other. For example, the PDP65 oil made by Kluber in Germany for both Nagra and later Revox / Studer capstan motors is very expensive but is the ONLY oil you should ever use on particular motors. And, yes, you DO definitely need to lubricate despite Revox manuals being somewhat vague about it (later bulletins and in particular Studer did update and document this need for service lubrication). OK, before I digress further …. uh oh …. . … here comes the small print and volumes of it ….! Sigh ……. bonehead small print …. apologies for the ‘officious’ stuff! IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN YOU BUY FROM NAGRAVOX. THESE ARE PART OF OUR TERMS and CONDITIONS of DOING BUSINESS.1. COMBINED ITEMS and POSTAGE SAVINGS If you are purchasing more than one item or kit, WE DEFINITELY OFFER COMBINED POSTAGE – no matter what a silly ebay message may say!!!! . Please either use the shopping cart (if available on your country version of ebay) or purchase individually BUT DON’T PAY. Continue buying individually BUT DON’T pay – as many times as you like. You can request an invoice if this option is available (not all eBay’s are the same!!!!) rather than paying straight away – or just don’t do anything and I will send you a combined ebay invoice. This will enable us to send you a realistic invoice with appropriate reduced postage. This is also the best way for international customers where the Ebay calculator for postage may be inaccurate. Some country’s Ebay works oddly – there is believe it or not little consistency and somehow there is no shopping cart or it is complicated to combine the way one should be able to. WE DEFINATELY OFFER COMBINED POSTAGE despite what ebay message might tell you (I have complained countless times and they refute there is a problem with some countries ebay version). If this is the case and you have difficulty combining multiple items, may I suggest you purchase the 1st item and then send me a note on your paymnet with your other requirements and I will send a separate additional invoice. Ok … now I am going to let it all hang out here and spit the dummy / all toys out the cot! Many people just ignore this and buy and pay for multiple items separately with the implication, “he’ll figure it out”. Hmmm I won’t! To refund the extra postage paid is a real hassle and ebay won’t refund their commission on the postage making me even crankier!!!. So, from now on, if you won’t follow these directions and you pay multiple times expecting me to figure it all out – I won’t. It will just stay as it is and I will have a beer on you. Thanks and cheers.2. PLEASE NOTE – VERY IMPORTANT – POSTAGE COSTS, TIMES, TRACKABILITY, RISK and MORE…… I apologise for burdening you with this bonehead stuff. The Ebay / Australia Post link up charges shown on Ebay are not clear indeed possibly misleading. There is a collaboration and electronic link-up between Ebay and Australia Post which for the most part works well but there are some uh…oh’s. We now only offer 2 levels of postage as insisted on by Ebay and Paypal and cannot offer the cheaper non tracked airmail service unfortunately. For some countries particularly in Eastern Europe, some Asian countries and South America, there is NO TRACKED service. This is a conundrum because ebay and Paypal insist on a tracked service but have their heads in the sand when it comes to practical alternatives. If we have to use airmail or registered service because there is no tracked service – the risk of this service with NO TRACKING is yours. You always have the option of selecting a courier service which is ridiculously expensive but is trackable at least. Why ebay don’t indicate that a tracked service is not available to your country is anyone’s guess – who knows !!!!!! We have recently ascertained that even registered airmail is trackable but just not by you directly on line. If you take the tracking or consignment no. to your local post office they can track it internally. This works in most of the countries that don’t have tracked link up with Australia Post … like Switzerland, Norway, Italy, Greece, Romania, Russian Federation etc etc. Another learning moment recently. International. Anything over 2 Kg can’t go Pack n Track and so will go registered or signed for airmail. POSTAGE SERVICESWhy is the postage so expensive? Ebay charge a full commission on postage and we pass that on to you. Ebay insist on a tracked service (not always possible but they conveniently ignore that) which adds an additional cost. Some of the ebay postage calculators are in ‘lah lah’ land – and they may not be always in your favour! Local Australian Domestic is via Australia Post 500g. 1Kg or > satchel. They are trackable and take 4-10 days to most of Australia except the wop wops which is a bit longer. International. Tracked or registered Airmail International via Australia Post International Airmail Service. To those countries postal service that have a transparent international tracking system – we will send via a special Australia Post tracked service (Pack n Track). For those countries who don’t have an international compatible trackable collaboration we will send registered post which is safer, is not user trackable but is trackable until it enters your country but once it there. The cost is typically approximately ~$20 to New Zealand and parts of Asia, ~$26 to N America and other parts of Asia and ~$30 to Europe and most other parts of the world. The Ebay calculator will work this out more precisely and WILL include their commission!! Time to destination. 1 – 4 weeks. Mostly the speed is outstanding but sometimes it’s a bit slow for an airmail service but I think things get held up in your customs and local post who take their time. Please see proviso above of your risk if only registered or airmail service to your country is selected or only available. Want your stuff in a hurry? Courier / Express International. This is a fast (2 – 4 days), trackable, insured service and “ouch” expensive. We use either Australia Post EMS or DHL. Is it worth It.? If you are in a hurry or are really dubious of your post system (eg most places in Africa) then maybe. We are investigating a DHL service that gets out of Australia on DHL but then coordinates with the national postal service in your country. It’s looking promising… From time to time I may coordinate multiple items postage to a particular country and you may get your parcel via your local postal service. Please don’t ask me to specifically use this facility as I may not be able to. All postage out of EEC will be using La Poste or Royal Mail and the “signed for” option which is trackable.DECLARATION of value. Usually this is at what you paid. However, I believe, vintage audio enthusiasts should not be penalised for their hobby by greedy governments! So, if you want a specific value declared but at your risk, just ask. Usually AUS$25 is the threshold.POSTAGE WEIGHT CATEGORIES The first tier of weight category is at 500g and then 1Kg, 1.5Kg etc. (Domestic next category is 3Kg). If it goes over 500g for international its roughly 0.85x the lesser weight category cost. Most cap pot kits weigh between 245 and 450g. Motor kits are about 150g. Do ask for postage consolidation / invoice otherwise Ebay calculates separate postage charges on multiple items and it will cost you more. WE DEFINITELY OFFER COMBINED POSTAGE.3. YOUR ADDRESS – this is really really importantIt may be obvious but PLEASE make sure your address is 100% correct and add more information if there could be any possibility of ambiguity. THERE IS A LIMIT of 32 characters per line in the ebay / Paypal / Australia Post automatic link up and it does not warn you that address lines longer than 32 characters will be truncated. Do not exceed this 30character including spaces limit per line. Do not use foreign language symbols like o ß ˘ ˆ – ~ ° Ç . The automatic link between Ebay / Paypal and Australia Post will not translate these correctly and your parcel may be incorrectly addressed. We rely on this auto link up which is very good but won’t translate symbols properly or long lines of characters. Please also use capitalisation for your name etc. It’s very unprofessional and just sloppy to use all lower case – yes I am a grumpy old man!. You be surprised how may addresses we get from Ebay without capitalisation, vague inferences to house or flat nos, all long address on 1 line and incomplete names. The information you provide to Paypal is automatically transferred into Australia Post and onto a label. IT MUST BE PERFECTLY CLEAR and ACCURATE. If it isn’t – the fault is with you and so is the risk.Please make sure: · DON’T exceed 30 characters per line including spaces. Use an extra line. · Your full name is clear and capitalised appropriately eg Mr Firstname Surname etc· House / flat / section number and street number are clearly demarcated with a comma and space between them. Don’t use foreign language symbols like o ß ˘ ˆ – ~ ° these won’t be directly translatable by Aus Post / Ebay / Paypal. Spell it out on a separate line if it is a flat in a block in a street – no shorthand.· Suburb, Town is clearly shown · City is shown on a separate line· UK people – Australia Post does not recognise your little hamlet of 5 people in the middle of a suburb or town. Add more information in case it spits the dummy which it often does for UK addresses – it likes a known suburb, town or city. · Postal or Zip code is shown exactly as it should be. Don’t add spaces, embellishments or abbreviations. Australia Post system checks to see it is a valid international post code and spits the dummy if it isn’t. · DON’T use abbreviations for your state. Spell it out fully. Australia Post / ebay link up has a problem with this. Eg TX, MN etc means nothing to it.· Put your phone number in. SERIOUSLY its good idea if your post service want to get hold of you concerning your parcel! So many people don’t put a phone number in – why?· Put your direct contactable email address in – and please not one that you never use – I am not psychic!4. WAITING FOR YOUR PARCELWe only post out once a week usually on a Friday or if the wheels wobble, on Monday. We have given approx transit times above and these are on the pessimistic side of what Australia Post indicates. Usually things are sent within a day or two airmail out of Australia once lodged. However parcels are often held up with your local post and customs for days and even weeks. From time to time we will also post out some parts from the EU using either LA Poste or Royal Mail this may or may or may not speed things up – who knows! Parcels to South America and East European countries can take up to 6 weeks – why – only the Gods know! Canada often has very slow postage. UK, EU and USA are usually pretty quick but there are exceptions sometimes to the USA where some states postal service sometimes forget to wake up in the mornings. 5. GETTING SERVICE SHEETS and LITERATURETHESE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN WHAT WE SEND YOU – you must request them. We do not include these in the parcel simply because postage and printing will cost more and updates are difficult to accommodate. So, once you have received the parcel please contact us on our direct email (no ebay mail please!) and indicate what kit you purchased. Contact us as per package label and we will gladly authorise MailBigFile to send you a once only link to download the service sheet. Please no Ebay mail – we cannot use that service for service sheets – it’s JUST NOT POSSIBLE. Remember, please also detail exactly what kits you purchased as it saves me time having to look it up. The service sheets are too big to send on normal emails as some email providers have a limit of 10 Mb. Some of our files are 200Mb. So MailBigFile works well. Please just be patient during the down load – it does take time and the strange interface makes it seem like nothing is happening. It is … go make a cup of tea! Please note ALL our literature is copyright and by receiving these you implicitly agree to comply with our copyright policy.6. SUPPORT FOR NAGRAVOX KITS and PARTS.I supply service sheets and support on the following basis.You must request the service sheets by communicating directly with me by email after your kit has arrived as per above. This then will be sent via a download service as a pdf document as they are usually too big for email. This may seem a strange way to do things but it is the most effective for me to make sure you have the latest service sheets as well as minimising postage and printing costs. Parts and cut down kits don’t generally have service sheets – only full kits. Sometimes however I may have written a technical note applicable to a particular part and its installation which with pleasure is available to you.Personal online support in the form of questions, problems, issues, advice etc via email or Skype or Facetime can only be given to those diy purchasers that have purchased kits and downloaded the applicable service sheets. Please don’t expect support if you don’t bother to look at my service sheets. Although I have never had to limit the amount of time I give you in free support, in the future I reserve the right to possibly ask you for payment of extended support that may run into many hours or over many days.Service Sheets are strictly copyright protected and I reserve all rights in any form of my IP. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Copyright © Jenform Australia Pty Ltd 2011. My service guides contain material protected under International Copyright Laws and Treaties. You may only use it for the private diy purposes intended – ie updating / upgrading / repairing your own vintage electronic device for which you have purchased a kit from Nagravox.

No part of any guide may be reproduced, communicated or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording, or by any information storage and retrieval system without express written consent from Jenform Australia Pty Ltd – which will not be unreasonably withheld – just ask!Service sheets are for DIY private enthusiast use only and NOT for commercial service, sales or competitors unless you have received permission by prior arrangement with me. This is not unreasonably withheld and I am quite approachable on a commercial liaison and agreement basis. I welcome commercial purchasers on a mutually cooperative and fellowship basis6. WARRANTY All our kits are warranted for 2 years from date of purchase on the basis of component replacement. In the unlikely event that you have a problem or are not happy with any aspect please contact us and give us a chance to remedy the situation.7. IMPERFECTIONS definitely NO NOS or 2nd hand!WE DON’T SELL ANY 2nd HAND CAPS or POTS! On the can type multi-caps and electrolytics we hand make these and epoxy encapsulate them so there may be small traces of glue on the terminals. Just scrape or file clean before soldering. Gosh … it is hand made by me personally… I might even autograph one for you…. and may be famous one day …8. IF YOU HAVE AN ISSUEPlease contact me by simply sending a message on ebay or directly (better). Any other response somehow invokes Ebay police! This includes “I haven’t got my package yet”. Ebay very unfairly immediately consider the seller guilty of something and block funds with a pending black mark. Even if you have only just asked! We have very few issues and pride ourselves that nearly all are resolved easily. Very seldom do we have an unreasonable customer and most of you are into the spirit and credo in which I make these kits and parts available – indeed my raison d’etre. I am here not because I need to make a living from Ebay as a beady eyed vendor or want to gouge as much as I can out of you. I am here because I want to see more of these old machines restored and treasured as they should be. If you are grumpy and a pain in the …. with an attitude please rather don’t buy anything from me. If you are a happy sort and have a positive outlook seeing the good in people rather than the negative, you will get a lot out of me and our relationship. We should always be able to sit down and have a cup of tea, glass of wine and a chat. So – No boneheads please! Thanks. Remember, contact me direct which is easier for me to give in depth answers. I apologise for all this “official” stuff above but over the years it has become necessary unfortunately. Good on ya (as we say down under!) for reading this far! All the best with your restoration and hobby. I hope our kits and parts can help you achieve your goal of a perfectly operating Studer or Revox machine … running like the proverbial Swiss watch! May the analogue force be with you. Kind Regards,Upbeat Pete at Nagravox Australia.

Studer A80 linear hybrid amplifier module A101 for A80, B62 and others
STUDER A101 Linear Hybrid Discrete Amplifier module for all versions of STUDER A80, A/B62, A80 VU and mixers such as the 189 Available as DIY kit assembly Customers have been asking me for years why dont you make some decent AS101’s. Well at last I have and not just copying others. Something different with more options.The A101 is used in quite a few of the modules in A80 recorders particularly. Why would you need to replace it? Well – two reasons really.the originals were epoxy encased and there is a tantalum capacitor on board that needs to be replacedusing more modern transistors with matched high gain and very low noise – a slight improvement in performance is possible.Studer had a lot of problems with the original fully encapsulated versions after only a few years service. At one stage they issued a blanket “replacement” policy to their service agents.On the market is a rival version using SMD components. We do not consider this a good idea for the A101 for a number of reasons. The main being the SMD soldering process results in heat fatigue and stresses, SMD capacitors are compromised as a result (the reason why the originals were not so good). Besides, why adopt mass production technology in something so elegant and simple as an A101. I also will not be goaded into responding to competitors taunts of inferiority to anything they haven’t designed / built. Yes, sadly it does happen – strange people. This is a straight forward module and there is really not a lot to it. I think ours is better but of course that’s up to you to decide. You make up your own mind. FEATURES OF THIS KIT:Resistors are low noise hi stability 1% and are mounted flat not sticking up in the air.The capacitor is very low leakage hi stability electrolytic 105C 2000h manufactured for us as are most of our electrolytics. Most importantly – it can be replaced in the future unlike anything epoxy potted!The transistors in the standard version are BC550/560 types with low noise and medium / high gain. Transistors come from consistent gain batches.The transistors in the deluxe version are extremely low noise high gain made by Toshiba or Hitachi. Transistors are from consistent gain batches.Because the different transistors have different lead outs – the PCB for the deluxe version is slightly different – not just lead swapping.Header Pins are preformed (no bending required) plated copper alloy Optional flexible wire lead outs are also supplied to give you greater flexibility to fit the A101 onto those boards that are quite tightly packed.The printed circuit boards are double sided 2oz Cu HASL with mask and through plated holes. They are fully designed, not copied, by me and manufactured in Taiwan by a PCB specialist manufacturer that has been doing this for me for more than 15 years.Detailed instructions provided on how to assemble with many options for mounting. Some of the Studer boards need flexible mounting as there are other components nearby.THE OPTIONS: Order in pairs, 4’s, 6’s, 7’s or 10’s. Standard version with high grade BC 550/560 type transistors as specified in later Studer versions. Deluxe version with high grade modern Toshiba / Hitachi transistors I have specifically chosen. The PCB is slightly different but same size. The A80 VU mk1 takes a lot of these modules. You will (ouch !) need 17 for each audio channel / module + 2 for the master oscillator card in the main cabinet. The A80 VU mk2 – 4 Generally 4 will be required per module plus 2 on the oscillator module in the main cabinet. (please check as often boards are mixed around over the years) The A80 and B62 non VU models with all audio boards in the main chassis console. Generally 2 will be required per channel – 1each for Record and Playback amps. TOOLS YOU WILL NEEDSoldering iron (fine tipped) and solder (prefer Lead type). Get a decent one that is temperature stabilised and the temperature can be adjusted – doesn’t need to cost a fortune. A fine tip will be needed. Small sharp side cutters Glasses if you need themPatience and a desire to do the job properly. (wife / girlfriend help to find lost screws & washers – optional but highly recommended) The kit contains specially sourced, new, freshly manufactured components from reliable manufacturers whom we have been dealing with for many years. (my capacitor manufacturer going on 10 years now!). DEFINITELY NO NOS (new old stock) or 2nd hand items!! Service sheet instructions, hints and suggestions are made available to you which include many “monkey see monkey do” pictures detailing exactly which components go where and a host of useful tips, checks and maybe more of my witty suggestions. DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS? Please communicate with me direct for all queries, aspects you may need assurance on, parts, puzzling faults and of course for a chat. This is much better for me than ebay mail. NAGRAVOX specialises in Revox, Studer & Nagra tape recorder overhaul and upgrade kits and parts.

Please just ask.NAGRAVOX specialises in Revox, Studer & Nagra tape recorder overhaul and upgrade kits and parts. Electronic parts, kits, mechanical components, tools / test gear.GENERAL INFORMATION ON OUR KITSOur kits contain specially sourced, new, freshly manufactured components from reliable manufacturers whom we have been dealing with for many years. No NOS (new old stock) or 2nd hand items!! The motor capacitors are specially manufactured for us for Revox tape deck motors as are large power supply can type electrolytics. The audio signal path capacitors are specially selected low noise, low leakage / high stability types that we have specifically tested and sourced to be the most appropriate available. The preset pots are cermet fully enclosed guaranteeing decades of trouble free operation and adjustment.What About – other audio path caps and transistors – I try to design kits on the basis of what is most likely to be degraded without going over the top. We don’t usually supply audio path related non polarised path paper, mica, poly or other caps satchel. They are trackable and take 4-10 days to most of Australia except the wop wops which is a bit longer. International. Tracked or registered Airmail International via Australia Post International Airmail Service. To those countries postal service that have a transparent international tracking system – we will send via a special Australia Post tracked service (Pack n Track). For those countries who don’t have an international compatible trackable collaboration we will send registered post which is safer, is not user trackable but is trackable until it enters your country but once it there. The cost is typically approximately ~$20 to New Zealand and parts of Asia, ~$26 to N America and other parts of Asia and ~$30 to Europe and most other parts of the world. The Ebay calculator will work this out more precisely and WILL include their commission!! Time to destination. 1 – 4 weeks. Mostly the speed is outstanding but sometimes it’s a bit slow for an airmail service but I think things get held up in your customs and local post who take their time. Please see proviso above of your risk if only registered or airmail service to your country is selected or only available. Want your stuff in a hurry? Courier / Express International. This is a fast (2 – 4 days), trackable, insured service and “ouch” expensive. We use either Australia Post EMS or DHL. Is it worth It.? If you are in a hurry or are really dubious of your post system (eg most places in Africa) then maybe. We are investigating a DHL service that gets out of Australia on DHL but then coordinates with the national postal service in your country. It’s looking promising… From time to time I may coordinate multiple items postage to a particular country and you may get your parcel via your local postal service. Please don’t ask me to specifically use this facility as I may not be able to. All postage out of EEC will be using La Poste or Royal Mail and the “signed for” option which is trackable.DECLARATION of value. Usually this is at what you paid. However, I believe, vintage audio enthusiasts should not be penalised for their hobby by greedy governments! So, if you want a specific value declared but at your risk, just ask. Usually AUS$25 is the threshold.POSTAGE WEIGHT CATEGORIES The first tier of weight category is at 500g and then 1Kg, 1.5Kg etc. (Domestic next category is 3Kg). If it goes over 500g for international its roughly 0.85x the lesser weight category cost. Most cap pot kits weigh between 245 and 450g. Motor kits are about 150g. Do ask for postage consolidation / invoice otherwise Ebay calculates separate postage charges on multiple items and it will cost you more. WE DEFINITELY OFFER COMBINED POSTAGE.3. YOUR ADDRESS – this is really really importantIt may be obvious but PLEASE make sure your address is 100% correct and add more information if there could be any possibility of ambiguity. THERE IS A LIMIT of 32 characters per line in the ebay / Paypal / Australia Post automatic link up and it does not warn you that address lines longer than 32 characters will be truncated. Do not exceed this 30character including spaces limit per line. Do not use foreign language symbols like o ß ˘ ˆ – ~ ° Ç . The automatic link between Ebay / Paypal and Australia Post will not translate these correctly and your parcel may be incorrectly addressed. We rely on this auto link up which is very good but won’t translate symbols properly or long lines of characters. Please also use capitalisation for your name etc. It’s very unprofessional and just sloppy to use all lower case – yes I am a grumpy old man!. You be surprised how may addresses we get from Ebay without capitalisation, vague inferences to house or flat nos, all long address on 1 line and incomplete names. The information you provide to Paypal is automatically transferred into Australia Post and onto a label. IT MUST BE PERFECTLY CLEAR and ACCURATE. If it isn’t – the fault is with you and so is the risk.Please make sure: · DON’T exceed 30 characters per line including spaces. Use an extra line. · Your full name is clear and capitalised appropriately eg Mr Firstname Surname etc· House / flat / section number and street number are clearly demarcated with a comma and space between them. Don’t use foreign language symbols like o ß ˘ ˆ – ~ ° these won’t be directly translatable by Aus Post / Ebay / Paypal. Spell it out on a separate line if it is a flat in a block in a street – no shorthand.· Suburb, Town is clearly shown · City is shown on a separate line· UK people – Australia Post does not recognise your little hamlet of 5 people in the middle of a suburb or town. Add more information in case it spits the dummy which it often does for UK addresses – it likes a known suburb, town or city. · Postal or Zip code is shown exactly as it should be. Don’t add spaces, embellishments or abbreviations. Australia Post system checks to see it is a valid international post code and spits the dummy if it isn’t. · DON’T use abbreviations for your state. Spell it out fully. Australia Post / ebay link up has a problem with this. Eg TX, MN etc means nothing to it.· Put your phone number in. SERIOUSLY its good idea if your post service want to get hold of you concerning your parcel! So many people don’t put a phone number in – why?· Put your direct contactable email address in – and please not one that you never use – I am not psychic!4. WAITING FOR YOUR PARCELWe only post out once a week usually on a Friday or if the wheels wobble, on Monday. We have given approx transit times above and these are on the pessimistic side of what Australia Post indicates. Usually things are sent within a day or two airmail out of Australia once lodged. However parcels are often held up with your local post and customs for days and even weeks. From time to time we will also post out some parts from the EU using either LA Poste or Royal Mail this may or may or may not speed things up – who knows! Parcels to South America and East European countries can take up to 6 weeks – why – only the Gods know! Canada often has very slow postage. UK, EU and USA are usually pretty quick but there are exceptions sometimes to the USA where some states postal service sometimes forget to wake up in the mornings. 5. GETTING SERVICE SHEETS and LITERATURETHESE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN WHAT WE SEND YOU – you must request them. We do not include these in the parcel simply because postage and printing will cost more and updates are difficult to accommodate. So, once you have received the parcel please contact us on our direct email (no ebay mail please!) and indicate what kit you purchased. Contact us as per package label and we will gladly authorise MailBigFile to send you a once only link to download the service sheet. Please no Ebay mail – we cannot use that service for service sheets – it’s JUST NOT POSSIBLE. Remember, please also detail exactly what kits you purchased as it saves me time having to look it up. The service sheets are too big to send on normal emails as some email providers have a limit of 10 Mb. Some of our files are 200Mb. So MailBigFile works well. Please just be patient during the down load – it does take time and the strange interface makes it seem like nothing is happening. It is … go make a cup of tea! Please note ALL our literature is copyright and by receiving these you implicitly agree to comply with our copyright policy.6. SUPPORT FOR NAGRAVOX KITS and PARTS.I supply service sheets and support on the following basis.You must request the service sheets by communicating directly with me by email after your kit has arrived as per above. This then will be sent via a download service as a pdf document as they are usually too big for email. This may seem a strange way to do things but it is the most effective for me to make sure you have the latest service sheets as well as minimising postage and printing costs. Parts and cut down kits don’t generally have service sheets – only full kits. Sometimes however I may have written a technical note applicable to a particular part and its installation which with pleasure is available to you.Personal online support in the form of questions, problems, issues, advice etc via email or Skype or Facetime can only be given to those diy purchasers that have purchased kits and downloaded the applicable service sheets. Please don’t expect support if you don’t bother to look at my service sheets. Although I have never had to limit the amount of time I give you in free support, in the future I reserve the right to possibly ask you for payment of extended support that may run into many hours or over many days.Service Sheets are strictly copyright protected and I reserve all rights in any form of my IP.

WARRANTY All our kits are warranted for 2 years from date of purchase on the basis of component replacement. In the unlikely event that you have a problem or are not happy with any aspect please contact us and give us a chance to remedy the situation.7. IMPERFECTIONS definitely NO NOS or 2nd hand!WE DON’T SELL ANY 2nd HAND CAPS or POTS! On the can type multi-caps and electrolytics we hand make these and epoxy encapsulate them so there may be small traces of glue on the terminals. Just scrape or file clean before soldering. Gosh … it is hand made by me personally… I might even autograph one for you…. and may be famous one day …8. IF YOU HAVE AN ISSUEPlease contact me by simply sending a message on ebay or directly (better). Any other response somehow invokes Ebay police! This includes “I haven’t got my package yet”. Ebay very unfairly immediately consider the seller guilty of something and block funds with a pending black mark. Even if you have only just asked! We have very few issues and pride ourselves that nearly all are resolved easily. Very seldom do we have an unreasonable customer and most of you are into the spirit and credo in which I make these kits and parts available – indeed my raison d’etre. I am here not because I need to make a living from Ebay as a beady eyed vendor or want to gouge as much as I can out of you. I am here because I want to see more of these old machines restored and treasured as they should be. If you are grumpy and a pain in the …. with an attitude please rather don’t buy anything from me. If you are a happy sort and have a positive outlook seeing the good in people rather than the negative, you will get a lot out of me and our relationship. We should always be able to sit down and have a cup of tea, glass of wine and a chat. So – No boneheads please! Thanks. Remember, contact me direct which is easier for me to give in depth answers. I apologise for all this “official” stuff above but over the years it has become necessary unfortunately. Good on ya (as we say down under!) for reading this far! All the best with your restoration and hobby. I hope our kits and parts can help you achieve your goal of a perfectly operating Studer or Revox machine … running like the proverbial Swiss watch! May the analogue force be with you. Kind Regards,
