Bulbs for Yamaha B-2 Amp

[nbourbaki]

I'm finally getting around to do a little work on my Yamaha B-2. Can someone point me in the right direction for bulbs for a Yamaha B-2 power amp?

Thanks

I think T1-1/4 size 14V 80mA.

Thanks Rob! Any idea where I could buy four new ones?

I think the number 8640 rings a bell.

Here's the lamp chunk out of the B-2 service manual. :thmbsp:

Thanks for the schematic! I'm working on a source for replacements.

If you search this forum for bulbs you'll find there's a member who's name escapes me that has a good stock of bulbs. I have 2 burnt ones in mine and I'm planning to replace them all with LED's.

Hello nbourbaki. Go to Radio Shack and buy stock number 272-1092. Due to
the B-2's superior engineering, you can thread the wires through the little
rubber holders (just like the originals) and plug them in. You don't have to
remove the faceplate. Take off the cover. take out the two screws that hold
the light board and slightly move it forward. You can then easily replace the
lamps. Happiness always,
K-man

Here's how the B-2 looks with some super white LED's running at around 10 mA each. Thanks again DH! :thmbsp:

Anyone knows the specs of the original incandescent bulbs of the B-2?

Yes, I guess that is why I broadcasted still. Thanks, @Vint Age
