So, my buddy asks me to take a look at his 80's Sansui AU7700 int.amp. Damn thing is pretty cool and the reviews said it was very sweet in the day. I do a little panel work and find the preamp fuses are blowing, chit. bad news. My first thought is the diode pack. So I get lucky and find the service manual on line and sure enough, replace the diodes AND the caps AND the Transistors. crap. Good news tho, only 20 bucks and we're in business, bad news they don't make the same parts anymore , subs are available tho. More bad news, the thing is a TANK. It's going to take longer to tear it down and put it back together than all the testing and parts research. And the really bad news I read where people have done this work and some work others still don't........hmm what to do
