Cover on

A guy who heard that I worked on gear gave me a ring and asked if I would be interested in buying a used Sansui receiver and speakers he was no longer using. He bought them in Germany back in the early 80's, and brought them back to the US.. He was moving and didn't want to tug the gear around...

Thanks Lee, We've conversed previously, but he had the caps in stock and didn't have a list.. so hoping someone has.. :)

I'm tackling a PL4000 pre amp and I'm hoping someone might have a list of all the caps and such. And even better a digikey list....

Son of a... The leads from the Rectifier were crossed. dbt now goes out. Sheez, does this forum have a detention room? I feel the need to write "I'm an idiot" on the blackboard 500 times. Weird, I'm not sure how that happened, as I swapped the originals out one at a time. Perhaps when I soldered...

either one keeps the dbt lit. The one closest to the bottom of the unit dims ever so slightly and then lights right back up

Done. The dbt doesn't light, not even flash.

OK, dbt stays lit with above configuration... note I crashed the system before i swapped out new ps caps and rectifier. I tested the new ones just now and they are fine, the dbt remains lit however. New fuses and i checked the cord and temp sensor. Guess that leaves the transformer. Anybody want...

Thanks Joe, that step was the last thing on my mind before I fell asleep at the bench last night, LOL. I'll do that this morning and report back. I wasn't sure that would show me anything, now I know it will. Appreciate it. I assume I would be leaving the ground bar attached to the caps?

Thanks, I have replaced both the rectifier and the PS caps. Problem still persists. sigh.

That is exactly what the TD 125 arm board uses. 5" x 3/4. Beautiful stuff that lacewood.

LOL. For sure. I'm thinking I'll move this one on, buy a nice Orbit turntable, and use the extra to start another one. But it's hard to move on! (which explains why I have 12 motorcycles. hahaha)

Thanks!

I have to call uncle on an issue I am having with a PL400 II. I started with a perfectly working amp (after I recapped, installed new filter caps, rectifier, op amps and large resistors) and decided to install a WA speaker protect. While messing around and before the install, I stupidly crossed...

The bits for cutting out the recess cost more than the wood! LOL

Thanks man! I did do a full recap, and shielded the wiring. The faceplate was sourced from Vinyl Narvana, and the Micro Acoustics tonearm was sourced from Japan. The Leopard wood was ordered from Hardwoods Inc. Also installed new springs from VN.

Finished the rework! everything balanced and aligned.

I tried to open the site today, no go. Anybody know what's up?
