The scarcity of good, honest techs who can do good and reasonably priced restoration/rebuild of audio equipment inspired me to create this restoration kit. In today’s day and age, it is difficult to find a knowledgeable technician who can service your audio gear properly. I have seen many poor quality restorations of equipment that cost way too much for their owners. In 99% of the cases, only a few parts were replaced, instead of a full and proper restoration job.A proper restoration must replace all electrolytic capacitors on all boards. Do not fall for partial kits that restore just one PCB (power supply, power amp, etc.). This is not a good or proper way to restore your audio equipment. It is the same as with car tires; one should never replace just one tire and keep the other worn-out tires on. A proper rebuild requires a full recap of all PCBs.On the other hand, if one succeeds in finding a good tech, the wait time is usually 6-12 months for the unit to be serviced, and costs are sky-high. I have been servicing audio equipment for many years and have developed deep respect for all good equipment. Knowing how amazing and warm these units can sound, I decided to put together this kit. It includes very good upgrades and improvements that must be done to the unit. This restoration kit will make a huge difference in the sound quality. All the parts are of high-quality Japanese Nichicon / Rubycon / IC / United Chemi capacitors.I am extremely particular about the quality of the parts provided in this kit. Knowing how many bogus/fake caps, diodes, resistors, etc. are out there, I source all the parts from reputable wholesalers and buy them in bulk. Vintage audio equipment has the potential to deliver rich and authentic sound when it is properly restored. Not only can it enhance your listening experience, but it can also evoke memories and bring joy to your life. Let’s work together to bring your vintage gear back to its full potential, and make sure you have the music you deserve. ♩♬♫♪♫♩♬ “They Shall Have Music”- Avery FisherIncluded in this kit: 1.

However, I have noticed that many of these units suffer from constantly failing incandescent bulbs, resulting in wasted money on services to replace them time and time again. After years of dealing with this issue, I decided to take matters into my own hands and develop an LED replacement that would match the color temperature and angle of the light. Through my research and collaboration with a manufacturer of LED bulbs, I was able to develop a perfect replacement that not only matches the color temperature but also offers a 360-degree lighting angle compared to the 120-degree angle of regular LED bulbs. This LED replacement has the correct voltage and is sure to save users time and money in the long run. I am thrilled with the results of my efforts and confident that this LED replacement will be a game-changer. Say goodbye to constantly replacing incandescent bulbs and hello to the reliable and efficient lighting of LED technology. These are frosted lens bulbs. The frosted lens allows much wider and even light distribution compared to a clear lens. There is no halo effect with the frosted lens.LED LAMPS: 5 x Green LAMPS for the lettering. To fix the faded green color. BAYONET STYLE. 2 x warm white bayonet bulbs for meters. 2 x Fuse LAMPS FOR DIAL PANEL. 4 x blue filters for fuse bulbs. To make the dial look blueish. 6 x bi-pin 1 x screw bulb It will allow you to recreate that signature blue meter look of McIntosh units. One may use 1 or 2 filters at a time. 2 filters will achieve bluer hue compared to just one filter.COLOR – warm white.(blue when using the provided filters) FULL LED kit with Instructions ———–> LINK We also offer a great selection of Restoration Kits, LED conversion kits, Volume Controls, Rotary Switches and other rare/unique parts;Make sure to check our store ———> LINK (Use the search bar inside the shop to find what you need faster)We may also be interested in purchasing your equipment
