Re: What have you just bought?

I'll also need a suitable main belt as it's got a kink in it from having not been used for some time.

I'll have to bring the electronics up gently to allow the capacitors to re-form. I may need to replace them. All the switches and sliders will need the magic engineers' spray. Be nice to have a vintage bit of kit working again.

Blimey I remember those from the days when Akai wasn't a very decent hi-fi brand.

Hope this is going in the what have you fixed lately thread...
