« on: July 27, 2017, 05:34:16 PM »
Are these cards legit especially the goldcaps and the 82e26 missing a greencard over the VCA?

Yes they are genuine. Not sure what you mean by a green card over the VCA's. But those gold coloured caps need to be replaced, as they are old and will have lost value and may also leak.

The two 026 cards, are different rev's I doubt they will work well as a pair, even after recap, you have three era's of VCA across the cards. These will all react differently to the control voltage.

I finally dropped them and got these 2 from another seller.
I guess I'm a long way to find the right pair of 82e26 since they seem to be pretty much hard to find these days!!

Best regards

The gold can VCA is a nice sounding VCA (discrete) each card uses
2 VCAs one is only in the side chain (not audio) I will buy all of those
if you don't want them, or sell you more "can" style VCA's.
