EAR 834P Face Plate


I use the 834P with volume control directly into a Rogue Amp.I am very satisfied with the sound but would like to upgrade the faceplate similiar to the chrome version they offer. Any idea's.

I got the EAR 834P Deluxe version with the chrome plate.It is a 1/4 inch thick.If I was you I would sell and buy a Deluxe version .If you check the listings daily you should be able to get a good deal on one.That's what I did anyhow.

The chrome plated Deluxe version has closer-tolerance hand- picked components so theoretically is a higher quality unit.
Depending on what your 834P face plate is made of and what you wish it looked like, there are many options. The first few that come to mind involve modifying the existing face plate: Paint, Nextel, chrome plate, black chrome plate, gold plate or machine refinishing and clear coating.

As replacements there is Plexiglas, Aluminum, wood, natural stone, tile and any other piece of similarly thick material that can be shaped and drilled to fit.

Another option is sell yours and buy the EAR upgrade version with chrome face used, here at Audiogon. May not cost any more than changing out the face plate you're not satisfied with.
