I posted a few weeks ago about a Pioneer SX-1010 that needed a recap and was given the impression that it was too big of a first project.
Another AudioKarma member has suggested that he might be able to take on the project, so hopefully once he gets me a quote, I can move on that and get it restored to it's full glory. Lucky for me, he's semi-local, so shipping will be cheap. Any tips regarding packaging would be appreciated. All in all, I'm willing spend some money and have it fixed right.
In the meantime, I would still like to learn how to do these repairs myself. My father offered me a old SX-626 that has been kicking around the attic. Would recapping and replacing the transistors on this model be a better start for a novice?
Here is the BOM listed in the Pioneer sticky:
He mentions not listing the transistors. Can you guys help me update this list including the transistors that will need to be replaced? I've been practicing my soldering and its getting easier, so I'm looking forward to getting my hands dirty!
The receiver is getting brought to my location in about two weeks, so I'll be able to get any pictures requested then, in case there are multiple board variants.

Here is the BOM listed in the Pioneer sticky:
At first it was scratchy and didn't have any output on the left side, but De-Oxit fixed all of that. Since the lights pulse with the music (weak main filter cap?) and it has a few bulging caps as well as a handful of the light blue Sanyo caps, I decided to give it a re-cap and restore it to full health. I notice on the schematics that there are a pair of 725 transistors in there, so I'll be replacing them too.
A couple of questions -
1) any other "problem" transistors that I should replace will I'm tearing into it? I see some 2sc497, 2sa497, 2sc732, 2sc945, 2sc983, 2sa1312, and 2sc1344 transistors scattered about, as well as the output 2sc793's and the power supply d313's. I'm inclined to leave them all alone (save the 2sa725's, those are getting replaced)), unless you guys think some of the others might be problem children.
2) I'm going to re-cap the tuner, as many of the caps are light blue Sanyo's. Interesting anomaly, though - the SM shows the tuner board as an AWE-031, but my tuner is an AWE-011. I cannot find any schematics or other documentation for this board...... can anyone point me in the right direction?
Below is my parts list (sans transistors), in case anyone is interested. I'll be replacing the 2sa725's with ksa992's, and have the replacements already doped out for the other transistors if someone thinks it would be wise to replace them, too..
