As I said before, it sucks, but that is part of the gamble buying in the used market. For the most part I have done well, I don't always come out ahead, but often do. I bough a ML #331 for $1,800 and sold it for $2,300 6 months later a year ago. I bought a pair of Mirage M3SIs for $750 in 2009, sold them for $800 in 2020 after buying the Moabs. etc.

28 capacitors and 32 transistors does not sound like a “repair” but a total rebuild to me.

I was a bench tech many years ago so I know the difference between troubleshooting down to a faulty/damaged part and whatever that is.




a. The H-series amplifiers have many output transistors. The No 531H, No 532H, and No 533H have 16 output transistors per channel. The No 535H has 12 output transistors per channel.
