    There are lots of possibilities for changes that may or may not be a true upgrade.  At 38 years old, they are probably in need of new capacitors.  The sound should be big, clear and out in the room, in front of the speakers.  La Scalas are never polite and recessed sounding.  If they are, you need caps.  If not, keep the ones you have.  Use good film and foil caps, they will be worth the price.  While you don't need to spend $200 each, they will be expensive. 

     

    After that, research the forum for ideas and ONLY make changes that address an issue you can detect and can prove solved that issue. 

     

    What are your serial numbers?  I have an X code 1982 originally with Type AL xover and K-55-M squawker. 

     

    I think the receiver you scored is at least as great a find as your La Scalas. 

    They have the AA cross overs Serial # 23U049
