Waiting for a complete overhaul.

These are inside of P3PS. Note it was based on NAP140 utelising some of the same parts.

They’ve not held back with the flux on those diodes!
Ha. they are going to be all replaced and cleaned up! 
KPS25s was notoriously hot running and caps were underspec’d resulting in fast decaying parts.
and now for something completely different…
Naim Hi-Line 5-Pin DIN to 5-Pin (£800.00)
Noticed that the back cap clips off (and on thankfully) when doing some cable management.

What’s with the resister in there?
Good question, in looks like it connected to -ve & with the common’d coax outer.
470 ohms if I see the colours correctly
We’re paying for the wiring quality here, right?

In that case this must be the non source end if the cable?
Yes but whats its purpose, & whats the other end connected to.
You might have unearthed something here. Not often you see a resisting device in something you’d expect to pass as much as possible.
Manipulation of cable specs I imagine. Isn’t that what is also in super lumina speaker cable in those black boxes on the end of the cables? It’s Probably so that different length cables can achieve the same resistance.
What I find odd is its only one resistor.
If its an attenuator I would expect to see two, one for each channel & both connected to the -ve (#2 pin)
Have a look here -
It might well be James, problem is 0.0 does say its a
" … Naim Hi-Line 5-Pin DIN to 5-Pin (£800.00) … "
Indeed Mike, but I suspect the resistor serves the same purpose. I’m sure Naim would provide you the answer for this particular cable configuration.
Can’t you not just plug it back to together? That’s what i do…Works a treat!
…And? please do enlighten us all…
Same here and his point is ???
Yes, it clips and unclips quite easily.
