I asked a similar question in a brand specific section without the insight I was looking for so trying again here in DYI.
New to me Yamaha P2100. 35 years old and last 10-15 yrs sat unused. I blew out enough dust bunnies to check DC offset and hook her up. Still works and generally sounds fine.
What should be the first priority replacements ie avoiding ticking time bombs? Is it a given that those big PS filter caps need to go? The dozens of other electrolytics on the various boards?
What should be second wave of updates? ie. Likely out of spec stuff that affects sound quality?
It's not the worst layout I've seen but I don't relish tearing into this thing to get to parts if I don't really need to worry too much about them. Just looking for a priority to-do list of sorts.
Thanks.
