Hello. I am replacing the big capacitors on my receiver and due to my stupidity 25 years ago when I removed two of the caps in an attempt to find replacements, I left the groups of wires disconnected and unidentified thinking it was just going to be afew days before I had the caps and re-wired it up.
Fast forward 25 years and I have the caps and the desire to get it going again with my beogram 4004 and B&O rosewood table arriving last week, and now I am absolutely paralyzed with fear on connecting the wires again.
I downloaded the schematcis and I have been pouring over them for a few hours comparing the tiny, tiny drawings with what I can follwo on the circuit and I am afraid I am getting myself lost and frustrated.
Does anyone have a picture of the wiring of the 3 main caps?
The wires are grouped together in sets of 5 or 6 wires each and I thought it would be easy to figure the neg from pos but it looks like B&O does not adhere to a strict policy of black and red for neg and pos. So I have a group of wires that have red and orange, and white&Red, together with a white& black and white&grey. And I have a set with black wires but it also has white& black in it's group.
If I had a color picture looking down on the terminals of those caps, I know I could confidently attach them to the correct posts, but without it I may go blind trying to read the old schematic with a magnifying glass.
Thank-you for any feedback on this!
