[QUOTE="singhvi, post: 472594, member: 1155"] Very nice work. I've done a few Marantz recap/rebuilds from that era, including a 1030 (I bought it with a blown channel). A few tricks I've learnt: you can manipulate the board to have sufficient access to replace components without having to unsolder all the pin connections on most boards - just take up the slack from the wires. (I lack the patience to unsolder all connections, anyway). Where this is necessary, however, rather heat the board side of the pin connection and turn the pin through about 45degrees to release the pin with the wire connection still attached. This way, you don't end up with ugly gobs of solder on your wire connections, having had to resolder the wires back to the pins. Best of luck with your AU999. I'd love to own one. [/QUOTE]
