Will be getting in the GX9ES next week..

From the looks of the GX9ES...She is 100%...Now I am not sure if I will remove the Vol. Motor????

The GX9ES is in...I am going to switch out the Volume board tonight.

The GX9ES is Nice and clean...I will start a thread on that recap.

OK...Swap out the GX9ES volume board and installed into the GX10ES and WORKING...
This has been a Fun project...

I am going to swap out the Luxman R-117 and use the GX10ES at this time.

I also will be doing a Shoot-Out in June. Sony GX10ES vs Luxman R-117. May need to recap the Luxman..Let's see how this goes.

I want to bump this thread because it was the motivation for me to recap my GX10ES and I'm glad I did. Sound totally changed for the better and I can no longer fry an egg on the heat sink

Only real differences, between my recap and the OP's was that I chose not to recap the FM board (yet), the installation of modern speaker terminals (TA-F770ES are direct fit) from speaker-terminal.com, and I went with United Chemi-con (ESMH800VQT153MB63T) for the big cap replacement because they fit without having to modify the PCB. I did have to remove extra terminals from capacitor though.

imo no point in recapping the tuner unless you have some issues.

I'm looking for a speaker selector switch, not the knob, but the switch itself for my STR-GX10ES. Anyone know the part number. Mine was not working when I bought it and my electronics guy said it had been messed with. He made it so it would power both A & B speakers at the same time. Makes it usable, but not quite original.

Serial Number 800452
