I would try asking this question in the Sansui sub forum here, lots of knowledgeable folks who might be able to point you in right direction.

At the risk of offending you, the original question was placed at 11PM last night. You might want to wait a day or so for an answer. The Sansui 1000A is a wonderful receiver and is certainly worth restoring. Made in the late 60s, I guess that waiting a few more days won't be too long.

Hope you find someone!

You are from Pardeeville WI, how far from Wausau are you?
Does your Sansui play at all right now?

 

[hinodit]

I am not to far from wausau. It only plays on the tuner right now. Its all i have tested.

Playing is OK for a test, don't push your luck please.

hinodit,

If your Sansui plays right now, you can be sure that the "expensive" items (power and OP transformers) are GOOD.:thmbsp:

Don't "push your luck" with using the receiver before is is recapped.:nono:

The original Paper In Oil (PIO) capacitors WILL short out if not replaced, the big can electrolytics MAY be OK for testing, but should be replaced.

Ventilation is a MUST with this receiver (they run HOT!):yes:

There are too many threads in the Sansui section on the 1000A to repeat here.

Once restored, you will NOT be disappointed!
