Hi all,
I have a pretty nice SA-9100 on the way from "the bay". It's my first Pioneer Integrated and I'm excited to get it back in shape!
The seller had posted a video that shows it coming out of protection normally and passing audio in both channels.
I hope that is the case when it arrives.
I'll be restoring it, doing a full recap and will be changing out the known bad transistors, namely...
2SC1312 (Control Amp Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8), 2SC1313 (EQ Amp Q3, Q4, Switch B Q1, Q2), 2SC1345 (Filter Amp Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4) > KSC1845FTA
2SC1451 (Power Amp Q6, Q7) > KSC3503DS
2SA726 (EQ Amp Q5) > KSA992FBU
2SA720 > KSA1013YBU (PS Q4) / KSA1220AYS (PS Q6 & Q8)
2SC1318 (PS Q5, Q7) > KSC2890AYS
Are there any others I should consider replacing as well?
Also, would it be a good idea to change any of the diodes? (I will be adding the 1N4004 kickback diode for the relay)
The diodes on the Power amp and Protection boards are:
1S2471
1S2472
1S2473
It looks like the 1N4148 would be OK for all of these, correct?
I also ordered 10 Ohm, 1 Watt metal oxide resistors for the amp boards and 390 Ohm, 1 Watt resistors for the power supply B board.
Thanks!
