Akai GX77 recap - which ones to change if any?
I have been asked to recap an Akai GX77.
The machine is early 80s and all works, I've checked the capstan motor commutator and other wear points so know hours run are low.
The majority of the caps are Nippon Chemi-com, mostly black with some orange and yellow ones. There are a sprinkle of Marcom ones which I believe are a subsidiary of Nippon Chemi-com.
Now my question is, is it worth replacing all the caps, only some or even none?
If only some, would those in the audio paths be the ones to go for?
Lastly is there anything else that would benefit from a change?
