Guys, I just picked up this mint Sansui 500 receiver complete with original box, owners manual and service manual.
I did plug it in and it passes audio, all lights up and generally is in pristine condition but after reading this forum, turned it off because many said "dont plug it in before a recap" I have noticed many of the Suzuki and some other coupling caps are leaking oil.
Ive seen a few DIY on recapping this thing and just looking for some general direction, (I.E. what audio grade caps, or does it matter, Nichicon, Panasonic, etc), Im going to start with a full recap of all of the oil caps and new Electrolytics
For now, here is the beaut.
