The good news is that it came with all the wiring diagrams and foldout pictorials and assembly manuals--even the wiring jig. A project? definately. Over my head? You betcha. Gonna do it anyway? hell yes.

And I thought I had dain bramage for picking up blasted stuff. You are a better man than me mccuskerkt. Watching with much interest.
What is the wiring jig for?
You won't be lacking for guidance here. You'll do fine in the end. Jim McShane is your source for everything you'll need for the rebuild.
It's a template that allows you to measure out the individual circuit wires and put them together in a bundled harness.

@Selmerdave The HK Citation came as kits (although some were factory wired). Included in the instructions was a jig where you could lay out and cut all of your wires to the right length, resulting in a wiring harness.
What's the latest on your rebuild?

Would you happen to have the schematic for that Japanese one, I'd love to see it.

Is that a citation 2 or 5? The 2 was all 12BY7A tubes in the splitter/driver section.

That is a Sansui BA-303, Sansui' s last tube amp, along with the BA-202 and CA-303 preamp. These were the best Sansui ever made, concurrent with the AU-111. Because of the exploding transistorized stereo market, they only sold one production run in Japan, never exported them any where else. The Citation influence is obvious. Rare... to say the least.
