I have decided to attempt restuffing the multi-section cap. Since this is all for fun with no deadline to meet, it adds to the journey. Parts ordered - elsewhere on the Phorum I picked up on the long tall Nichicon series caps. Perfect for this task
It will be interesting to see how this set compares to the Philco 16X console on the air. One thing is for certain, it weighs a lot less, despite their similarity in size. The cabinet is lighter, and the chassis has nowhere near the size and number of transformer and choke cores.
Cheers
Ed
I don't hold with furniture that talks.
