Leaky capacitors need replacement?
I should add I would be most happy to put something in that might last longer.Just get the Nichicons I linked to for $1.13 each, quality cap and will last longer than you and the next owner will probably keep the amp for anyway. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Panasonic/ECA-2VHG330B?qs=sGAEpiMZZMukHu%252BjC5l7YR8X6v1kBION9...

Ok, thanks, will do! I have a bunch of soldering questions but I will do a lot of research online before I try it out on the amp. If anyone wants to help out: 1. What can I use for extra hands? I would say that is 1/2 of all of my soldering problems -- not being able to hold everything together so it doesn't move when I apply the solder and all the used-to-be soldered stuff is now free to move around. 2. What can I use as heatsinks to keep the heat to the area where I am soldering and not running out to other solder joints through the wires? 3. Is regular boring old solder from a plastic tube good enough or should I go all fancy silver solder? I guess that's really all the issues. :D |
Try this https://www.quadhands.com/products/quadhands-workbench I got mine on Amazon, and it has made soldering much easier. |

If anyone wants to help out:Sorry to be blunt Shawn, for you to ask these questions, this job is not for you to do, get someone that is good with soldering, and component id to do it.
