modding a S.E.X.

[Doc B]

Then my guess would be that it is maybe latex loaded with silica. That is what we used to put on the Straight 8 driver frames - what I called "secret sauce". Then we found the 3M damping tape which worked much better. That is what I would use now if I wanted to damp a chassis.

Doc,

That makes sense to me.  Anyplace where this 3m tape can be bought?

I'am interested in building the S.E.X. to replaced the amp that i used to drive some of my high impedance cans(Mainly for the Q701).I would like to know if the S.E.X.  can be modified to run 6AS7/6080 or 6SN7 tubes is this possible?Is these the upgrade  that i need for the S.E.X.,S.E.X. 2.1 C4S Upgrade Kit and Output Impedance Switch Kit for S.E.X. 2.1 do i need to upgrade the transformer?Is there enough space to install a XLR socket beside the TRS jack?Sorry for all these noob questions.THANK YOU!

62 Ohm headphones aren't quite high impedance headphones.

Sure, you can build a Crack on a SEX chassis, but then you'd be buying both kits and not using any of the parts for the SEX amp.

Is these the upgrade  that i need for the S.E.X.,S.E.X. 2.1 C4S Upgrade Kit and Output Impedance Switch Kit for S.E.X. 2.1 do i need to upgrade the transformer?Is there enough space to install a XLR socket beside the TRS jack?

You'll have to get more specific about what you mean by "need".  None of those upgrades is going to facilitate the installation of a 6SN7 and 6080.  Without looking at your circuit redesign, it's tough to say what would need to be done with the iron.  Most folks use a speaker to 4 pin XLR adapter with the SEX amp to leave the amp otherwise in tact.

Thank You for the reply!
The best thing for me then is just get the S.E.X. 2.1 , Output Impedance Switch Kit For S.E.X. 2.1 and S.E.X. 2.1 C4S Upgrade Kit.
Thanks!

I ordered my  S.E.X. 2.1 Kit,Output Impedance Switch Kit For S.E.X. 2.1 and S.E.X. 2.1 C4S Upgrade Kit last week and i'am hoping to received it soon....
