After having a desoldering gun, I'd never be without one, even for one, large project, like re-capping an old receiver/integrated amp. I purchased a cheap Anesty unit and it's amazing! Components usually pop right out after one try with this unit and if you have the temp set right, it won't damage and lift the pad.
BTW, for those still learning, when he said, "that's a good sign", what he was referring to was the speaker protection relay kicked it. If you don't hear that distinct, "click", a few seconds after powering on, you still have Power Amp issues.
Wasting time. Change all power supply caps, burnish the relay contacts, change the several output board caps, change the preamp, tone board, flat amp, phono and fm board caps. The main filters are generally fine. Clean the controls, trims, align the tuner, lubricate the tuning string pulleys and tuning knob bearings. Change the fuse lamps in the scale and set dc offset, bias and power supply voltage.
Great Video, I have a 2275 and the right side speaker has considerable lower volume and seems to be missing some highs ?? What do you think the cause could be ? Thank You .. JoSoFo
Great video, do you have any recommendations on what to use to clean the glue residue off the circuit boards or do you not worry about that. i'm thinking corrosion. Thank you!
Audio grade caps tend to have tighter capacitance specs, but higher ESR. It likely doesn't make much of a difference on a power supply board, though, so really just use whatever you have.
Wasting time doing Al that makes a lot of money a year so u can just buy a new one intead doing all that,I have no time for all that old school it's 2022 already.Ill pay to do all that for me & I'll be sitting by the beach and wait for a phone call & it's ready to picked up!!!
