    Hiss in Left Channel Sony TC188SD

    Just picked up an Sony TC188SD from ebay in great condition. The only problem I have is that the left Channel has a disty hiss sound to it all the time not only during playback.

    Sansui AU-5900 hissing (background noise)

I cleaned it good, used Deoxit in all switches, pots and selectors (more then once). After a few minutes of working, the right channel...

    I am trying to fix this amplifier, I've already been through the most common issues such as the exploded X2 cap (it took me about 1 day to remove all the crap and the smell), the burnt lamps that turned the amp off when pressing the DIRECT switch and I duly checked/set the voltages and DC offset...
