Project: Sansui G9000

[Super Noob]

Am just a hack and a non audiophile... I love my G9000 and Sansui gear. This is the looker from my deep stable.

Thanks for the kind words… my best attempt to share the build. Your results my very.

Good afternoon. Excellent restoration work. I followed it step by step because I am restoring another G9000 that the owner told me heated the right channel.
I found several problems that I solved and adjusted the BIAS current as low as possible. After 4 days of satisfactory tests, the equipment began to warm up in the right channel. Same symptom the owner told me. The black heatsinks on the back where the new transistors are located get hot. I changed them all because they were all different.
Any suggestions to review? Because I'm running out of ideas.
Thank you in advance.

Just started my work on my g9000 and ran across this excellent article but have a question on the oval filer caps. Along with the listing of the 8 filter caps, there is mention of 2 1uf 63v caps, listed as coupling switch. Where do these go? Also, if anyone knows, what gauge wire is used in the connection between the filter caps to the terminals?

Fantastic article....
Thank you
