Sansui AU-717

Bought my AU-717 integrated amp new in 1977. Have used it intermittently over the years and it works and sounds great, 45 years later.  The cover has never been off and I still have the owners manual.  Any reason to have it serviced?  Caps, etc?  If so, why?  And can you recommend a knowledgeable service resource in the Atlanta area?  
 

I generally live by the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” philosophy but suspect that may not apply here.

If it was mine, I’d have it restored and brought up to factory spec you will be surprised how much better it will sound after a refresh.

that is entirely true. Our ears get used to a degrading component sound, so when back to life the transformation is worthwile.
