Hi, folks,
Now that I have my Pioneer SX-1250 up and running, it's time to dive into my Realistic STA-2100D. I want to do a total recap of this baby and am looking for some recommendations for caps. My Pioneer was done primarily with Panasonic EEU caps and UPW/UKL Nichicons. Is it advisable to go this same route? Is there a "rule of thumb" with cap types in the signal path as opposed to the PS side of it?
This particular receiver has a very weak stereo signal which seems to be inherent with failing "D" units as it is associated with the MPX/Dolby board. I have two of these receivers with the exact same issues. I get a very weak FM stereo broadcast and the indicator will just flicker and the tuning meter barely moves. Otherwise, the amp section really kicks butt!
Thanx in advance for the help
Bud
