I PM'd a couple of AK'ers on some information about (finally) rejuvenating my little SC ASR-120 amp and have been searching as best I could thru the AK database about what others have done to this amplifier in their rebuilding. Obviously, it's hard to search via the search function for "ASR-120" on the AK site so I have been teaming that up with Google to help out. I've already installed the IEC power connector, nice RCA jacks and banana style speaker jacks on the back and have wired the speaker and RCA connections already. I've got to find a different power switch than what I was originally going to use and I have the fuse holder already, too. I'm going to incorporate the original power light from the console (which is inside and not trashed...don't worry). My buddy got a wild hair and is cleaning up the chassis today and also picked up 4 feet of 1x3 oak for building a nice frame for it. (I'm stuck at home writing 2 papers for college due this week).
I'll get pictures of what I've done so far and will post them in this thread as I can, too. I'm wanting to know what you guys have done with yours so far. What caps did you replace and what brands do you prefer? What resistors? What extra little touches or upgrades did you do to take it one step further? I used "orange drop" caps on my Magnavox 9304 EL84 amp and will most likely use them again but am open to other options. Any and all information ad/or opinions are appreciated as I value the technical savvy of you tube guys on here.
