Grunow 654

If you have the schematic, you should replace capacitors with close to original values (a little higher is OK, but no real advantage in going much higher, and can actually cause problems.) Those replaced caps might be OK, but don't know how long ago repairs were made. I'd replace all of 'em and do it neatly with shrink wrap/spaghetti insulation. As for the resistors, for the pennies involved consider replacing all of them as many may have drifted up or become noisy. Certainly the decals disappeared when someone refinished the cabinet. Dunno where to get specialized decals, maybe someone else does.
