    Marantz 500 Restoration, Here we go...

    Hey guys, Its been a while but I'm starting a build on this guy and thought you might be interested. This unit was running when before I received it, but things are never that easy. When I powered it up there was an immediate smoke storm and it popped the 15 amp fuse. Challenge accepted.

    Pilot Model 500 tube amp from console power socket

    I have a pilot 4500 console with a model 500 tube amp and I am trying to figure out how to install jumpers to power the amp so I can use it without the tuner / turntable. Does anyone know where the jumpers go on this particular amp?
