    1060 Output coupling caps

    Starting a 1060 revival, more like a resurrection ( it's nasty) LOL . Making a parts list for Mouser. Everything was fine until I got to the output coupling caps, the stock caps are Elna 3000uf 55v. I search Elna,Nichicon, Panasonic and no 3000 uf caps, only 2700 and 3300 uf. Is it OK to use...

    Original large Advent loudspeaker - high frequency switch not working

    Hi, I recently bought a pair of Advent loudspeakers, circa 1975. They sound good, but the high frequency switch at the back of the speaker seems to make little or to my ears no difference when switched between its three settings. The caps (revision 2 crossover, 16uf and 8uf) seem to be the...

    MARANTZ 19 (channel issue)

    Ok, so a guy brought a 19 into my shop with the left channel out. Two prior service attempts by others (new caps, yadda, yadda,) and still, no left channel, EXCEPT during "power down". While powering down the left channel kicks in. ANY IDEAS???

    Recapping Question (2225)

    Starting the process of recapping my 2225 and was wondering if there was a suggested brand of cap to replace the existing ones with? Most caps I have looked at are Elna brand which are available but I also noticed the cheapest on the website I looked at. Fearing you get what you pay for I'm...

    Marantz 2330B resurrection thread

    My co-worker recently mentioned that he had some 'old' marantz gear lingering in his garage. He wanted to know if I was interested in buying. I told him "YES!" Bring it in, and we'll probably get a deal worked out. It was too heavy for him to lift, so I went to his house and brought home a...

    Onkyo tx-2500 Missing? Caps

    I picked up a non-working Onkyo for $20 today because of the clean condition, even though no output. Turned out to be blown output fuses and seems to have no issues. I cleaned it up, gave it deoxit and it it is very nice as the photo shows. I went to inspect the boards and for some reason C918...

    2218 Cap Question

    Hey All, Re-capping a 2218 and have everything except the 6800uf 35v large caps, I do have 10,000uf 35v leaded caps. This unit doesn't appear to have an independent filter cap and it looks as if the amp and power supply share the same wafer board. Are these 6800uf 35v a form of filter cap...

    Filter Caps

    Ok, I know it is a dumb question, but that's why I am here, hopefully to learn. When I look at the values for filter caps from the suppliers, they offer several different terminations, i.e. 'snap in' , 'screw terminal', etc. What should I be ordering for the best connection? Thank you Rich

    Marantz 2220B 'LOUD' popping noise!

    After about 20 minutes of use I got a LOUD popping noise. It sounds like if you were to drop a needle onto a record very violently and the volume is set to 11. I had to run over and shut it down. To be fair, it has NOT been restored but I cleaned the pots pretty good. Not sure what this could...
