Nothing, essentially. I've spent the little time I have on my 660AV the past six weeks. That one works great, though. :)

Thanks! Do you have a link to a list of capacitors to buy, in order to recap the AB and LB?

Hi all, I have acquired a Color Classic. According to the seller it “used to work reliably up until just a few months ago”, but now it’s completely dead. In a nutshell, my question is: How do I go about fixing it? I’ve pulled out the logic board, and it looks just fine (but not recapped, yet)...
