very Nice Harvey plenty of dust in there and those Rifa caps will need to go they are still available they are good caps they are just at the end of their useful life they've done well considering they are 55 years old !
in Poland prices go from 450 -1000 pounds for fully restored recaped model in good condition, i just bought mine for 458 but it is in very good condition and evrything bad was fixed in service
Lovely A77 Harvey Will Be Super When You Work Your Magic On It Some Time Those Run Capacitor/s Can Become Faulty And Alter The Speed Nice One !! Regards mike.
Hi Mike, lovely to see you here, hope you are feeling a lot better ? Yep going to change all those caps on the speed control board plus all those other split Rifa caps then finally all the others on the plug in boards, lot of work but worth it in the end.
That's some wonderful engineering there harvey. That's what you call a transformer! I love the module design look in these old things. It looks like a work of art. I once had a late 60's farfisa organ that had a back flip lift up lid like a jukebox. when opened, all of its modules with those blue philips & ducatti capacitors and resistors sitting on very neatly displayed long module boards. It looked very striking. It had a large spring reverb box in the speaker chamber.
hi harvy a great m/c w4ell worth the effort to get it fixed i spent years triying to get hold of a 4 track slow spead that i could afford I had 2 high speed 2 track witch i ended up selling. the revox mains leads are very expensive as are the NAB adaptors.
Hi Rob, yep the original 2 pin leads are expensive but the 3 pin IEC sockets are cheap and are easy to replace, just cant understand why someone installed a Bulgin socket as those leads are equaly expensive, lol.
Without even watching the video, it seems that there is some Rifa caps used in that device. They very often are unrealiable and can blow in a very unpleasant way.

Did I say Belgin socket, lol. Should be Bulgin socket.
Just starting to watch this Harvey. I have a MKIII, which I bought off my brother in 1979, he had since 1972. All good.
