a mod where you remove the tank from the PCB and attatch RCA cables to it so 
you can move it around in your rack or even outside the rack to be mounted 
for the least amount of RFI. Well, it doesn't work and the thing is a piece 
of crap! I have a full on ground hum in my reverb out and I can't get it to 
go away for anything.<<

When I was doing a recording using my Doepfer, I stacked a high quality 
Master Room spring reverb ontop of my Doepfer, but I was getting so much hum 
that I had to put it on the floor.  If a totally separate and enclosed spring 
reverb outside of the Doepfer picks up so much hum, I can see how any spring 
reverb within the case will be way too noisy for use.
