FREE Nikko A 300D Local pickup San Diego

Tried to list this for free, but don't see that option.

FREE for local pickup. Oceanside, CA. Just can't bring myself to throw this away. It is a high quality little integrated amp that I've had for ~20 years. Hopefully some DIY person will adopt it. One channel drops in and out. I assume it needs new capacitors. I've been using this as my computer amp, but the bad channel has become cumbersome so it has been replace. All the knobs are here, faceplate reasonably clean. Not junk. Will text pics.

This is not the actual int. amp, but shows specs.

Have you tried something like DeOxit spray on the potentiometers? I thought my early 80's Toshiba receiver was losing a channel but when I sprayed the pots it all cleared up. That was well over a year ago and still no problems.

The only downside to the DeOxit is that it is expensive ($20 for a tiny can) and the spray can that it comes in is poorly made and does not deliver the fluid very well. I do think it has de-oxidation properties above and beyond the water displacement and lubrication you get with WD-40 but it does also seem to lubricate some.
