Pioneer SX - 838 Power Supply & Protection Recap Kit Capacitor Upgrade Rebuild Set
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:7475808 | Model: SX-838 |
Brand: Pioneer | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
This kit includes the following:
Power supply kit:
8 capacitors3 transistors9 diodes (2 zener, 1 dual)...
Protection board kit:6 capacitors7 transistors8 diodes
Each kit is bagged separately for ease of installation.
These are all high-quality brand new genuine parts. The capacitors are Panasonic FC and Nichicon caps at the correct uf ratings and the same or higher voltage ratings and the transistors are the correct OnSemi and Fairchild subs for the original transistors. The diodes are 1N4148s, 1N4004s, 1N5404, MUR1620G, and 1N5243B zeners. These are not cheap Made in China parts, they are extremely high-quality and they are what I use when I rebuild Pioneer gear.
I will include a surprisingly well-written instruction sheet, but this is a moderately complicated job, and you should know what you're doing and have a decent soldering iron. You will also need heat-sink compound for the two heat-sinked transistors. This kit may not fix your SX-838 if it has other issues, but it will definitely help it run better. If you have other Pioneer issues, the good folks at Audiokarma can help you out. Obviously the parts in this kit can be used on any gear, but other Pioneer power supplies do require different parts, and I do not have kits available for those yet. Please see my pictures for details.
US shipping and handling is $4, and international is $14, no matter what quantity you buy. All my small parts are set up for combined shipping, so just use the "add to cart" feature and then check out all at once, and it will combine shipping. I accept Paypal. If you have any questions, please ask.
I have more kits and lots of vintage electronics listed--feel free to take a look!
