Research Deoxit on this forum. Plenty of good info on how to clean the pots and switches. Can be done pretty easily with little mechanical knowledge.

I'd PM EastPoint. Sold him some Sansui parts in a casino parking garage one time, good guy :D

Nice! does anybody know why they had two different knob styles on these? The two big knobs, the knurling is different, and the knob diameter is slightly smaller? I know the 801/901 euro versions had smaller knobs, but never seen the smaller versions on the big G series.

@jhaan92 @a_retent ? road trip?

Mine has the raised badges on it as well. no screen printing. It was set to 240v when i got it, it hadn't been used since the guy was in the service. S/N 316070195

We did, I don't don't remember exactly what it was about. I believe you lived in WI at some point?

No. I've been there several times though.

Buffalo county, WI. Where everything is an hour away :dunno:

That's odd.. you would think the electrolytics would be the ones that were off. Awesome work so far!

I'm not sure if that would work or not. Reluctantly, I did end up ordering the kit off of ebay. It's something I've never done before, I always get my stuff from Digikey or mouser...but i seriously could not find the proper resistors. I guess we will see how this goes.

Anybody else have any thoughts?

I was thinking that exactly, just two capacitors in series. I appreciate the offer, but i don't see the need to re-stuff them. They aren't in the open, and unless taken apart, it won't be seen. What are your thoughts on the rebuild kits on Ebay? I'm also finding it hard to locate 3w+ megaohm...

Looking to finally dive into the set of Quad amps that i picked up years ago. Most of it seems pretty straightforward, I'm going to undo a homemade solid state rectifier and replace all resistors and capacitors, along with some wiring updates. The question I have is on C4/C6. The original case...

Haha yea.. my wife and brother were pretty pissed. There wasn't any room in there. I'm just glad you were able to get it back. I'bmve contemplated getting rid of mine, but your story keeps reminding me not to!
