Output stage bad soldering

Great!  Another project showing up!

Things I'm noticing from the pictures are:

- ROE red capacitors --> changed them asap.

- The cracked capacitors are not ceramic but metallized polyester (MKT):  Depending on the values, you can use Vishay MKT1822 or MKT369 but you can also use MKT brand as well.

- Really bad soldering on the output transistors but you may want to check them to see if they were properly matched...

Hey,

Thanks for the input - i simply couldn't remember what that type of caps were called in techspeak :-)

I will check the output stage transistors, before or after recap ?

Already got a kit of caps + lamps + slider holders from Martin/Dillen. Lamps and sliders will not be needed though, both parties look to be in really good shape.

Thanks,

Ask Martin but I don't think the cracked capacitors are part of his standard cap kit...

OK, polyesters are just flaking - never seen them so bad before though.

Looking at the rows of caps in the kit, it's like i'm the richest man in the world - uncharted territory ahead.

Will clean sliders.

Will swap the lamps as the last task - but first a long weekend off.

Nice hint about the lamps, and common sense, put in another context : I recently busted my last glow lamp, bumping it around a bit with the vaccuum cleaner.

Thanks very much, enjoy.

I may have an end panel.  Are you in the US?

Thanks for offering, but we found the missing panel in the attic. Turns out the panels are black - not wood 

Cheers,

PS I am in Denmark

Not original in black.  They were painted then.
The serialnumber label will usually tell the original finish.

Didn't notice - nice paint job or i need better glasses (probably the latter) ...
