Hi A service tech can repair them, but at least ask for some diode protection on the rails and a recap and new regulators.. The whole power supply could do with a redesign from scratch, which can be done but takes time due to all the various voltage rails. One approach is a new PCB to replace the old one, but that still leaves the high voltage drop into some of the regulators.

So is it possible to create something different for it when it comes to the PS ? I mean is there another existing design or will my technician be able to come up with something himself ?

Hi Kenneth Same fuseholder and same fuse will be ok. The constant noise from the power supply is because its one of the worst ever designed.... It is truely awful with parts under huge stress and no care over the audio power, or in fact the digital power. No protection either, so when it fails it causes a fire in the front panel boards... I have a couple to restore for a client, but to be honest its junk. It needs a totally new design. If the noise is 50/60Hz check if its the transformer windings humming...if so you need to replace the transformers. Regards Rob www.emulatorarchive.com Does anyone know if it's the same fuse type that's used in the Emulator II as in the original Emulator ? When I got my Emulator it came with no fuse holder and fuse - and so far it's been working with a fuse similar to the one used in my Emulator II. But I wonder if it could have any influence on the constant noise coming from the power supply on my Emulator ? Does anyone know ?
