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.

The unit is very easy to dismantle and work on .

Discharging the Caps is where you need to be careful.

Schematics  are available on line-Tech needs an Oscilloscope -Some soldering skill and a Variac  wouldn't hurt.
