Fisher X-100-A power supply-how important is this capacitor?
Posted by microbe on December 27, 2016 at 19:39:28:
Hi,
I've pretty much finished rebuilding a Fisher X-100-A integrated amp and it sounds great. During the rebuild I took capacitor C4 out of the circuit, thinking it was only for noise reduction. Looking into it a bit, it looks like it might be potentially dangerous to remove this cap. Is it essential for safety reasons? Would I be better off removing it and installing a modern day 3-prong plug with a proper ground? I just want to make sure this thing is safe to use. Thanks.
Bill
