I just recapped my Sansui AU-70 amplifier. I have also installed two new multi caps. The 40/40 and the 20/20/20/20. I have it set at -17V at pin 2. I have installed EL84M's currently. Plate voltages of 395V (pin 7). According to the schematics it should be 410v. All tubes checked good with two...- daveyh
