Technics SP 10 mc II. Worth looking at?

I progressed through various motor drive TT's to DD and my impressive TT is the SP10 Mk II that is in use very regularly.
I have no problems with other motor drives on TT's and make time to hear them perform.

Was this a display unit, or for some other reason was it in storage for a long period time? If either statement is true, this is a good reason to replace all electrolytic capacitors or at least have a competent person evaluate their condition (which might cost more than empirically replacing them). Total cost in parts is very low. If you have evidence of an overhaul in the last 10-20 years, the lytics are probably ok.

Turn on your Technics first, if it’s fine don’t do anything. Caps might be already replaced by a previous user. 

The unit can appear to operate properly for some time after its electrolytic capacitors have started leaking, until it doesn’t. When it doesn’t operate properly, there is a high likelihood that other parts that are more difficult to source and more expensive have failed due to the failing electrolytics. It is very inexpensive to replace the electrolytic capacitors a priori. I’ve done it for two different samples of the mk2, myself. For some reason Chakster always disagrees with me on this issue. But you have my own opinion based on experience, and you have his based on his experience. Take your pick.

+1 on lewm, fry some electrolytics possibility of taking out other things. Those caps are old and if not used greater possibility of them being dried out. Playing  lotto by not replacing caps, be sure you can afford the possible loss.
