Default Re: Tellux Record Player (no model no.) - request for help

Yes, don't run the player amplifier for too long, just a couple of minutes to start with. If the capacitor still feels cold then run it again for a bit longer the second time and then feel the can again. The important thing is that if one of the capacitor sections has developed a very bad leak they can go of with a 'bang' in extreme cases, and you don't want to have your head over it if it does, so keep checking for any warming of the can casing.
