EARTHQUAKER DEVICES PLUMES overdriveThe Plumes is a low to medium gain overdrive based on the trusty lime green overdrive that has been an industry staple since its inception. This is the kind of overdrive that works in conjunction with a good valve amp to create the warm saturation people like to call transparent". While this circuit has been the foundation of countless other overdrives available today, we feel the Plumes has a few twists and turns to make it unique enough to stand

The Plumes is a low to medium gain overdrive based on the trusty lime-green overdrive that has been an industry staple since its inception. This is the kind of overdrive that works in conjunction with a good valve amp to create the warm saturation people like to call transparent". While this circuit has been the foundation of countless other overdrives available today, we feel the Plumes has a few twists and turns to make it unique enough to stand out. The Plumes does away with the trusted JRC4558 OpAmp and the BJT buffers and replaces them with low noise JFET OpAmps for a more robust and precise signal with a significantly lower noise floor. The 9v power input is internally converted to +/- 9v for more headroom and a clarity that is almost three-dimensional. We've raised the input impedance to a whopping 10 megaohms for a stronger signal with more clarity and chime. We've also adjusted the cutoff of the tone control to deliver a more useful range of travel with more booming bass on the low end without sacrificing the cutting midrange and bright top end. Last, but certainly not least, the Plumes offers three different clipping options to ensure that it will work with a wide variety of gear and playing styles. Mode 1 is symmetrical clipping utilizing a pair of light emitting diodes. This is the crunchiest setting the Plumes has to offer. When played through a clean amp, it'll deliver a reasonable facsimile of that classic crunchy valve amp tone. Mode 2 is clean boost mode. This eliminates the soft clipping diodes altogether and leaves you with straight OpAmp drive. This is perfect for pushing your clean tone out in front or driving the preamp of an already overdriven amp into tasteful breakup territory. Mode 3 is an asymmetrical silicon diode arrangement similar to the stock screamer but with more output and clean clarity, the tone some people describe as "transparent". The Plumes features EarthQuaker Devices relay-based "soft touch" Flexi-Switch™ Technology for both momentary and latching footswitch operation as well as a very low 25mA current draw. "¢ Unique approach to a classic tube-like overdrive circuit offering more headroom, lower noise and far better signal integrity. "¢ Features 3 different clipping options: symmetrical LED, asymmetrical silicon, and no diode OpAmp drive. "¢ Reimagined tone control to sculpt low end, clear top end, and focused midrange. "¢ True bypass. "¢ Silent relay-based switching. "¢ Features EarthQuaker Devices' proprietary Flexi-Switch™ Technology. "¢ All-analog signal path. "¢ Lifetime guarantee. "¢ Current Draw: 25 mA. "¢ Input impedance: 10 MΩ. "¢ Output impedance: 100 Ω. "¢ 100% hand-built in the USA."

Perfect fit, solved steering pump noise
Installed this o-ring kit on a 2009 Honda Odyssey. The steering pump was making noise and you could see bubbles in the fluid revivor when the engine was idling indicating a potential air leak from where the hoses attach to the pump. The most difficult part was finding the right 10mm wrench that would allow me to access the lower hose mounting bolt without removing the belt or pump pulley. I wound up taking an old wrench, heated it with a torch, and bent it in a vice to get the right fit. I did order a ratcheting, flex head wrench but while waiting for it to be delivered I was able to make something work. Overall, the o-ring kit worked great, the o-rings seem high quality and this fixed my issue. If you don't already have some, make sure to order the power steering fluid required for Asian/Honda vehicles when you order these o-rings.

No issues
Great aftermarket o ring. If for whatever reason OEM isn’t possible, these o rings will work perfectly fine. Had no issues installing into power steering system. Still would recommend Honda o rings if you can because they are also cheap.
