Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard
I'd recommend, seriously, this time, not attempting to put resources into repairing it; When the electrolytic off-gassed and spewed its internal magic smoke, conductive fluid (electrolyte) went all over the other parts (IC's in particular) making ...

Consider sending it to the Hydraulic Press guy channel on You Tube and ask for some $$ when he makes thousands from the subscribers; People send him all kinds of stuff; Very entertaining and it’s for science.I’ve had some equipment over the years ...
