well... thats what i found in my little brothers amplifier (Elektra Super 50)
well... i'm going to replace all caps. the big fat Tracon in the first and the last 3 pics was completely dead.
look at those 2 short videos..

well... the amp was still working, but the balance adjustmend was everything but useful, it fried the power lamp like.. 5 times (overvoltage), sometimes it mixed up the inputs (you selected "Tape 1", but you could hear what's coming into "Aux 1" in the background)..
well.. hope i can get this beast back to life
but anyways: what about the caps? were those Tracons and FDS thingys good or bad caps?
and any suggestions what to replace them with? (I thought about Rubys..)
