Test and repair amp

Consult Pyramid Audio in Austin, TX.  Keep us posted on the progress.

Happy Listening!

Here’s a quick update FWIW. No word from Ft Worth Audio. Makes me a little wary makes them seem a bit flakey. Pyramid was a dead end. I spoke with them and the phone taker spoke with Chris. They had never worked on a Moscode, and didn’t feel comfortable working on it. Said they were pretty busy and didn’t really need to take it in anyway. At least they were honest. Nice to be wealthy I guess. The search is still on, however, I may just get an ESR multi tester and invest in an oscilloscope just for fun and troubleshoot, re cap myself. How hard can it be?

@mikegris, depending on how much experience and knowledge you have in electronics, the first thing to keep in mind is *safety*, because tube amps can have lethal high voltages inside. Otherwise, get as much info on the amp, like schematics, part numbers and values, others who have worked on these amps, etc.

Your last sentence reminds me of the phrase "What could possibly go wrong?". Good luck and be safe.

What ever you do "DONT SEND IT TO GEORGE KAYE you will never get it back, that happened to me.

If it’s been working good so far, don’t change anything
