@timothywright If you like the amp that price to repair is reasonable. And a lot better than what can happen if a filter capacitor eats a power transformer or explodes! You'll hear the improvement right away- anything built that long ago has ailing capacitors!
Expectations after re cap of power-amp
My 1982 Yamaha M-2 power amp is in the shop and this time I agreed
to replace all the suspect capacitors. Two
of the capacitors are the size of coffee cans and the total bill may exceed
$500. I am told that since all the
replacement parts will be as good as or better than the original parts it should
sound as good as new or better.
I’ve never done this before. Should I expect “as good as new” or am I completely wasting my money?
