Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

RE: Re your last question.

Could it be that IEC jacks have become a user requested feature as bi-wiring terminals have in speakers? Not because the manufacturer thought they were better, but because it affected sales not to have them?

In speakers, several manufacturers objected to bi-wiring on good techniocal grounds, but sooner or later yielded to market presure. In other words, their presence proves nothing!

In your case you have bad wiring. And if there was enough oxygen difusion through the jacket to oxidize the skinny conductors, you may well have fixed a serious problem. but that doesn't make it a universal solution. i.e., I'm still a skeptic.
