QUAD 405-2 one ch out, should I buy it?

[355F1]

Chaps,

There is a 405-2 for sale, includes a FM4 tuner not working [$150 for both]. I don't care much for the FM4 but the 405 has one channel that works fine and one channel that is dead silent.

Worth to buy and rebuild it using a Dada or Net Audio upgrade kit?

Thanks,

Horacio

I have seen Chinese built 405 boards fully stuffed and tested exact drop ins. They sell on ebay for less than you could find the parts alone. If you care to do some research you will find that there are many design modifications for the 405. This is a fine amplifier worth your time and investment. Best regards Moray James.

If it hasn't been got at by unskilled personnel, I would recap it and repair the faulty side. To replace the boards will reduce its value.
