That should be a good practice unit. The MCS components, if I remember correctly, were branded for JC Penny and were of average sound and quality. I don’t know that I would invest too much money into one of the units except that it would be great practice doing the installations and listening for the differences. Good luck!
Re-capping Modular Component Systems 3222 Receiver
Gents, I just picked up a Modular Component Systems 3222 receiver and it's in excellent shape. Everything is working but I still want to re-cap this thing, mostly for fun and practice but also as a preventative measure for any future problems. It's all laid out really well and shouldn't be much of a problem for me. Any advice on this? I think that I will eave the entire tuner section alone for now. I will only replace the electrolytic caps throughout it. Is it safe to use a higher voltage on all of the caps or should I match the voltage. Any recommendations on which caps to use? I don't mind spending a little extra on some or all of them. Would it be beneficial to use higher quality caps on the preamp and power section? Thanks in advance for all of your ideas.
