Default Re: DAC 90A Smoothing Capacitor replacement

Hi Jason

Welcome to the forum

The DAC90A is a great set but please look after your personal safety since the Chassis may be live.

The main smoothing capacitors on these often reform without too much problem but the hard worked output valve UL41 can be a source of hum as can the grid coupling capacitor.

Do a forum search on DAC90A there are more threads about this set than any other.

The bulbs are a bit of a problem being unavailable new for nearly 2 decades but again there are many solutions.

Cheers

Mike T
