Recommended Purchase & Tips for PC Engine Turbo Duo Replacement Cap Kit and RGB Amp

[60-hz]

Hi Folks,

Can any of you kindly point me the in the right direction to the best site to purchase a Turbo Duo (original model) replacement Cap Kit and RGB Amp. The CD audio on my machine is fine if a little Low but on some CD games the sound affects are very faint to almost none existent. Are surface mount caps now the preferred method ?

Secondly what would also the be the best RGB mod to carry out on this machine THS7314 ?

There is of course a ton of info online but thought I would speak with you guys first to see of anyone has any experience in carrying the mods out and any little tips you may have.

Cheers

THS7314 is old and busted, the THS7317 is the new hotness. Basically there's a low pass filter with the 7314 and it can be disabled in the 7317 which, in theory, would mean a cleaner image. There's not much in it though...

As for a cap kit: https://console5.com/store/nec-turboduo-cap-kit.html

As for a amp I'd grab this, though he doesn't ship abroad so... yeah: http://voultar.com/index.php?route=p...&product_id=53

Excellent for the help. I'll do some homework on the THS7317.

Thanks for the links

There's always the 7316 based AMP, easier to solder and doesn't have the low pass filter of the 7314
