Hey all, so I came across this mint G-8000 that I’m starting a rebuild on. One channel has zero output and so I’m working on finding those issues. I’m doing a full recap etc. First question: on the power supply board there is a large resistor and the manual calls for a 3.9 ohm 15w resistor. The one in there now definitely does not look factory and measures at 16.2 ohms, made is a 10w and 5w in parallel. Now I know that there can be discrepancies in Sansui manuls. I have a 4 ohm 25w, a 3.9 ohm which I believe is 17w???, and a pair of mills 12w 8 ohm that I can wire in parallel for 4 ohm 24w.
Thoughts? Anyone with a G-8000 that can confirm what value goes there?
