I think it's ok to run the set with either of the upper or lower buffers (or both I guess) uninstalled, is that correct ?
Also what do you use in place of the epoxy after reinstalling the buffer ic ?
I opened up the back of this set and fired it up with an audio disc on input one and cycled through the inputs until I heard sound. Was looking at the back of the set and noticed the led on the upper buffer board. Ok that's probably good. Then another led lit beside it.
Then a third.
THOSE AREN'T LED's !!!
Jumped up to pull the plug, sound was still audible so I think I might still be ok so wanted to test the lower buffer and pull the bad ic(s) off the upper buffer board to see where I'm at hence the two questions above.
