Whilst the main board was out I recapped it with spares I had laying around, quite a few caps were out of spec and some of the big psu caps rattled when I removed them they were that dried out.
My memory isn't what it used to be either
and find that I have to write things like this down to remember properly.
I'm glad you managed to give it a new lease of life Chris - it was a lovely amp in its younger years, and together with my old LP12 and B&W 603s were the soundtrack to some happy times
