Hi all, and thank you for the warm welcome Susurus. This would be my second post! My brother was over recently and had a chance to listen to both my receivers, a Onkyo tx-8500 and a sansui 8080db. Well turns out he has identical speakers as I do "cerwin vega-re-30's".so far hes been through 5 new mid price range newer receivers and has very unhappy with them to say the least. After listing to both my vintage receivers he just fell in love with them sooo.. I decided I would give him one of mine. After listening to both he really liked the power and sound of my Onkyo over the Sansui. I told him no way I would give him my fully restored Tx-8500 heh. I ended up trading the Sansui for a Pioneer tx-1010 yesterday since it has identical wattage as the Onkyo. After reading up on it here, the same problem areas need to be addressed so now im making a shopping list hence this post, but Ive never ordered any of these parts and need a little help..Any one up for it?
I have the service manual, digital multimeter, soldering station and desoldering gun.+ certification in digital & basic electronics "5 years ago"
so far Ive pieced this together from Markthefixer?
--Power regulator board---
C7 & C8 470uf (80v) 100v 647-UPW2A471MHD $1.87 ea
C10, C11 100uf (63v) 100v 647-UPW2A101MHD $0.87 ea
C12 & C13 100uf (35v) 63v 647-UPW1J101MPD1TD $0.37 ea
C14 47uf 50v 647-UPW1H470MED $0.25
C18 1000uf (35v) 50v 647-UPW1H102MHD1CV $0.98
C19 220uf (16v) 35v 647-UPW1V221MPD $0.41
C20 & C21 2200uf 10v 647-UPW1A222MHD $0.80 ea
Would this cover the whole regulator board?
One of the two main caps has a big bulge on it:thumbsdn: What should I replace both of them with and what to use for the parts that connects them together?
I also would like to re mount and T.I.M. the output transistors. What parts would I need to do this? I have T.I.M already.
Should I recap any thing else while I'm at it?
It would be really cool if i could order this all this from one supplier but It wouldn't bother me to order from 2 different outfits.
Ill post pictures of the unit in a bit. Man if any body wants to help me out with this that would just be AWSOME. The local repair shop wants to charge me 500 dollars to do all this. Im really looking forward to comparing the Tx-500 to the SX-1010 :yes:
