Thx for the link Roffe!

The translation problem is with the ":88" port number after the website's name…

But as it seems the Chinese owner seems indeed to have had the same problems as me…

So I will order new caps and resistors for the HT DC side (C1-C2-C3, R1 and R66)

Cheers,

Laurens

UPDATE:

The Chinese owner mentions (thanks to Google translate) that he used 5W resistors for R1 and R66.
Unfortunately I only can get 3W (metal film) or 4W (metal oxide film) resistors. But I reckon the 3W's would suffice…

And that I also should change the speaker wiring and clean it good, and also should it be necessary change the tone resistors.
