Restuffing can capacitors in a classic marantz : a pictorial

You'll need a pipe cutter, your caps, some tools and a little patience
Cut right above the flange
Cut can and flange with innards cleaned out
Epoxy solder tabs from rear of flange for strength
Prepare capacitor bundle
Drop capacitor bundle into can
</
solder terminals in holes drilled through flange
Glue end flange on and clamp
Complete
3 reworked cans installed

Lots more to do but getting there
This works great for classic pieces or those components where you just can't fit the array of teriminal strips and axial caps underneath. If you have the time and patience it looks great and undistdinguishable from the original. Now the Marantz 1 has 105 degree super quality Nichcons in the PS preserving the original look.
Hope some of you will give it a try..
