don't call yourself a repair center if all you do is send out capacitor kits.

You never fail to entertain me and I am shocked that a savvy tech guy like you would forget there are Zeners on that AA.

I see where they've been selling them for a while.  Couldn't find anything about servicing other than the announcement that they now do crossovers.

Your 8 year old niece would have missed the most obvious repair on these then.  Many times loosening and tightening the wire terminal screws fixes this.  That should be step one as it's the easiest thing to do and doesn't cost a cent.  Every 8 year old knows that.

Randy, perhaps you need to read a bit more closely.  They do not say they have been selling or servicing for 40 years, only that they have "experience" for that time......so do I, as do many on this forum.

It's about post count as far as I can tell. Veracity is not needed.

 

Dave, do you plan on purchasing a cap kit from them and doing some measurements, or is that already in the works?  I will be happy to contribute to that effort.....
