Sisterray Posted February 8, 2019 Report Posted February 8, 2019 The title says it all. My SRM-252S seems to be failing, indicated by hum. (It’s the 120V version.) I’ve been discussing it on the Stax thread in Headphones. While I lack the expertise & all of the tools to troubleshoot the amp, I do possess the tools & enough skill to refurb a working SRM-1/Mk-2, a unit I’d get from eBay. I understand the primary work is to replace the caps. Any experience?
Sisterray Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Posted February 11, 2019 I did buy an SRM-1/Mk-2 through eBay a few days ago. I’ve subsequently come across a recapping procedure, so I plan on doing that in the near future. It’s a Model C, and it came out of a studio. It has two pro bias sockets.
ktm Posted February 12, 2019 Report Posted February 12, 2019 How's your soldering skills? You might want to grab some junk circuit board to practice on. Other than that, the recap job is pretty simple.
ktm Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 I assume you've received this and have had a chance to listen?
