    CR-600 restore and repair questions

    Hi There, audio lovers. I have a Yamaha CR-600 on my bench and have some questions maybe someone can answer. On the main amp circuit board, I see several non-polar electrolytic capacitors. Can I replace them with normal polar caps? On the circuit board I also see on one side of the non-polar...

    CT-F1000

    I have a problem - picked up a CT-F1000, and upon closer inspection discovered that the spring-loaded spindle caps (the best I can describe them) are missing. The sleeves must have cracked (at least the one on the right has a hairline crack) and the spring and the cap popped off...:rant: I...

    So on my 2245 that I'm getting very close to finishing now :D I got to the new LEDs ( Thanks Randy) and the front panel. I also got the AM/FM recapped and still need to cap the muting circuit.

    Marantz 1060 Basket Case Dead Short

    Hey all, I have a 1060 that I basically got for free as the seller listed a 1060b in good condition, but send a 1060 in trashed condition. I was tempted to part it out since it is in such rough shape, but I have never done that and hate to destroy such a classic piece. So, I put it on the DBT...

    2226B Cap kit

    My 2226B is starting to have some issues and I plan on recapping it. Is there a list of the needed capacitors or will I have to go through and count how many of each is needed? Also, any advise on going about this procedure is appreciated. It will be my first overhaul.

    Marantz 4300 Filter Cap Question

    Hey guys, Trying to re-cap my newly aqquired 4300, the existing filter caps are 20000uf 50v and the closest I could find that would fit was a 22000uf 50v. Is it okay to increase the filter cap to 22000? Just want to make sure before I change them out. As always ... Thanks Rich

    JBL D130 dust cap replacement

    Well friends, tonight I scored a pair of JBL D130 woofers. Sorry, I'm not home yet, but I'll post photos once in home. The previous owner was an older fella who passed.
