[QUOTE="darrylo, post: 33359, member: 666"] I picked up a dusty old Pioneer SX-34b from a friend for nothing. :) Unfortunately the 6AQ8 tube on the FM tuner is cracked and broken. The output valves are working but are mismatched brands. I've also read that I should replace most of the Caps before doing anything else. Does anyone know a local source for these valves and caps ? Good news is it still works and sounds ok. I'm looking at hooking them up to a ancient pair of Pioneer speakes that have been in my garrage the last 10 years.... After I repair the tweeters, rebuild the boxes and the crossovers. later. [/QUOTE]
