  • Repair and testing of a ConradJohnson PV-7 tube preamplifier purchased by a friend in non-working conditions. The previous owner replaced a can capacitor and three out of four points on the PCB where the multi-can cap mounts, used the metal shell of the multi-can cap to connect to ground. The multi-can was replaced with individual caps and the points on the PCV where the multi-can cap shell was mounted, where left not connected believing that they were just a mechanical mount to hold the can in place, but those points went to ground through the Multi-cap metal can. A bridge was built to connect those points to ground. Problem solved! The unis was connected to an OPPO BDP-105, Mcintosh Mc2105 and a pair of Klipschorns for testing and it sounds absolutely beautiful and as sweet a wild raw honey!

      Hello teammate and thank you very much for watching my video as well as for commenting.
      There are still some good manufacturers out there but most are making disposable goods that end up on a landfill.
