Sansui CA-3000 Restoration

I couldn't find an electronics technician who would restore my Sansui CA-3000 preamplifier to my liking, and I tried a number of what were supposed to be the top techs in town. I looked around for a replacement preamplifier with the same specs, and I would have to spend in excess of $7,000. So I decided to study up on electronics and do it myself. Quad-Bob originally performed the recapping and pinning/resoldering of the pass-through joints - which he did a remakable job. However, Quad-Bob moved to Japan, and I wanted to replace all of the transistors, diodes, zener diodes, and discolored resistors. This gallery shows my progress in restoring the CA-3000 to as-new condition.
