thank's for your answer
i asked the same question to geoff tanner few months ago
he gave me an answer an i tried to do what he told me but i didn't succeed
and i burned two transistors,maybee i did a big mistake, i'm not so good in electronic
so i need some help
i have the manual whith schematics, i can scan and send them
Hi

I dread to think what you modified to burn out transistors... they are not even close to the mod!

All the threshold is.. is a stepped attenuator driving a fixed gain amplifier. I suggested that you stick a resistor in series with the attenuator to allow a higher threshold... this is external to the motherboard... and with the caveat that, if you don't know what you are doing... don't do it.

That's the problem with trying to help folk, I suppose.

If I were you, I'd put up with the figures it currently achieves.
