Is my Dynaco Stereo 400 worth repairing for resale?


After all the years, I’m sure it needs a good cleaning and at least all the cans replaced.

Will I even break even?

I’m sad to say James Bongiorno is no longer with us. I never realized how many of the products he designed, I bought over the years.

The Stereo 400 was a kit and it has a ton of parts, but if I can bring it back to spec, or better yet, I might just keep it around. 😁

I built this amp so long ago I barely remember where everything goes. It has VERY little room inside, so I would need the exact power caps, cause there’s no room for anything much larger.  It’s a heavy beast too!

Yeah, it’s been used once in the last couple years and should probably move to a home where it’s going to be used, but….  can you send me a link to Big E?

Did you use fancy dancy caps and could you hear a big difference in the sound? If so, was it a good or bad difference?  I’m still trying to decide whether I want to keep the 400 or hopefully sell it.
