Kenwood Supreme 700M Subsonic Filter restore question?
I recently acquired a 700M and have restored most part of it myself. I like to do the physical (technicial work) myself and thanks for the available info from AK users and specially much info from Echowars.
Since its restoration and it has been playing good for a couple months driving my older Merlin VSM speakers. I mainly use them for Jazz and Vocal and Acoustic classical. With MF VDAC II and a Kenwood 700C preamp I feel kind a good about the muscial result.
My question is about restoring the 700M subsonic filter, which is mounted near teh amp's front panel. From read its schematic, A and B inputs are fed to their selector knob and then to the subsonic filter before to their left and right main amp section. Whether the subsonic is turn-on or off, its audio signal will pass thru its input and output Mylar caps (plus 2sa620s BJT) before reaching its main amp section. When the filter is turn-on, its audio signal will pass additional 2 Mylar caps for its subsonic filtering.
I want to find out if any Ak users had experience on this part of the amp circuit. I googled it and only found restoration on the main section. Any info will be greatly appreicated.
