  Very nice.
  
  Any tips or advice for the rebuild? Im all ears!
  
  As always if you care to share, I know I and others would love to see pics of the work done.
  
  BTW youve made it abundantly clear your love for the 6060 :)
  I have a rebuilt original 1120. Original outputs with its cap coupled design. Great warm sounding amp. Sony has quite the strong following from this era. Along with nearly every other LOL.
  
  I think you, like Mike did for the sherwood 5000, have single handedly made the price of the 6060 rise a bit ;)
  
  Thanks for any info.

    I was on a quest for the best sounding SS receiver a few years ago. Far from a large group of vintage receivers, but the STR-6060FW was best of the lot. Honorable mention was a Sansui G-6000. A stock Fisher 400 did sound better vs the STR-6060FW except for bass definition. After mods the Fisher 400 went from ok to the stratosphere.

      I have a penchant for Fisher iron myself.
      
      Used the 400 iron for my Push/pull 45.
      
      Used the 500C for my Triode 807.

      If you ever get a chance, try Kyocera. They made a fantastic receiver. D
