I have been refurbishing this model amp for quite some time now and after doing around 8 or 10 of these, I have come to realize the high quality sound that these amps deliver after specialized recapping and tuning up. Knowing what caps to use in what section is the secret. These units are hard to find in excellent condition and really show what the 70's and 80's sound was all about. Very warm sounding amp that delivers amazing bass. Speaker connectors (8) were updated and the 2 channel capacitors were replaced with Nichicon Gold-Tune KG series. The original 2200µf 50V main filter cap was replaced with a Nichicon "SUPER THROUGH" Type 3- 4700uf 63v capacitor. This results in lots of punch now in the bass section and VERY accurate highs. Electrolytic capacitors in the signal path upgraded to Elna "Silmic II" audio-grade capacitors and Nichicon KZ premium grade acoustic series. Power supply and most other small electrolytics replaced with Nichicon FG and KG capacitors. Most of the film caps in the under 1uf range replaced with "Orange Drops". ALL original bulbs replaced. All rotary and push-button switches cleaned with DeOxit G5 Gold. All potentiometers flushed twice with DeOxit FaderLube. Chassis metal cleaned and protectant applied. PS and audio signal path circuit boards carefully cleaned, inspected and any suspect solder connections reflowed. DC offset zeroed and idle current set to factory specs (after one-hour warm-up/stabilization period). Ran for a week with no heat buildup or any loss of signal or distortion and runs cool all day. You will enjoy the unit for many years to come.
