I'll take a look inside.
Thanks Dan
Thanks Dan
I need advice.
Background: I am a devoted music listener for over 50 years. Most of my knowledge of technology is from the 70's.
Objective: The best sound quality I can get from my system.
I have numerous amps, turntables and speakers. The best of these is as follows:
My audio system; Thorens TD 160 with Stanton 680EEE cartridge, Sansui AU 717, JBL L112
The Sansui (as far as I can tell) is untouched as far as any refurb is concerned. The overall quality of the audio as far as I can tell is good. But it is what I listen to every day so I have no source for comparison. I have read that an amp that is 30+ years old is due for refurbishment (new caps, etc.). I have been quoted $350 - 400 for a total refurbishment of the Sansui 717. I would consider having this work done if it would make a noticeable improvement in the audio quality. What can I expect from such an investment? I welcome any suggestions.
