Hi fellas, I just picked up a Fisher kx-200 amp in working order and it appears to be all original. All tubes are fisher labeled except for the 7591 output tubes (Raytheon). So far I have cleaned the knobs, faceplate, chassis, and deoxit the switches and pots. From reading all your posts I know a re-cap job is needed as a safety/maintenance for reliability and am looking into getting a rebuild kit. I contacted Jim about getting a cap kit from him as many fellow AK'ers have mentioned him in other posts but in his kit he uses other caps in place with clamps to secure them instead of the original looking replacement multi cap cans that look stock. I would like to replace the old cans with new cans for two reasons, one is to keep the stock look and second is because I am not very knowledgeable in electronics and feel this would be easier for me to just remove and replace. Anyone used the cans from Hayseed yet? Any advice on wich route I should go with as far as the multy can cap replacement? I want to make this amp as good sounding as I can. Im sure most of you know more about this that I do. Here's some pix of my amp. Thanks everyone In advance for advice or suggestions, Ben
