Trying to disassemble NAD 5420 CDP for bulb replacement

soma89 · 20th February 2011, 06:27 AM

Hello, I just bought one of these for 10 bucks at thrift store and it sounds great only the displays dont work. I know people like to change these bulbs on their own and, judging from my read, I am supposed to somehow remove the pcb to get under it, which is where the bulbs are. Can anyone explain how I go about doing this. The pcb seems complicated to remove (I'm a total newb at this).

I own other nad model and yes the bulb brown after some time so is better to modify it to use LED instead for less heat and long lasting.
