Technics SP 10 Mk II a


It's been suggested that I recap the power supply of my SP 10. One person also mentioned replacing the caps inside the TT module at the same time.

I could pay to have this done, but could as easily do it myself. What caps are appropriate, where do I source them, and where can I find schematics to help determine the appropriate locations and specs.

Has anyone done this themselves? I'm experienced with a soldering iron and have some time available, as well as being attentive to detail (not re-tentive).

Would the better part of wisdom be to have it done by a professional at $85 an hour, and if so, whom do you recommend?

with appreciation,

Albert, I am jealous that Bill installed fancy diodes in your Mk3. I may have to do it for myself in my Mk2A. But I am glad you are happy. Bill is a great guy, besides being supergood at what he does. (I see now that we both used the word "super" in describing Bill and his workmanship.) Likewise, my Mk2A is running smooooooth as silk and dead silent with your thingamajig.
It looks like I should think about having the electrolytics in my MKIII replaced. I also need one push button cover for the speed controller. Anyone have a spare?
Rwwear, I thought my MK3 was running fine until I had it rebuilt. When it was all original it's performance was maybe 15% above my (rebuilt) MK2. After I got it back they were so far apart I could not believe it.

I'm going to sell my Wenge plinth MK2 Technics and buy another MK3.
