It has been a long time (again) since my last post....sorry guys Freunde

Just before the vacation I worked on this nice receiver....for my best man.He truly wants one of mine vintage receiver (and I don't want to let go any of my Sansui LOL ),so I picked Sony...biggest, baddest of all Sony's.

small reminder of the past tense Floet ...couple years ago

The unit is in original condition,so each switch must be cleaned...well-known procedures

many of us prefer using Deoxit,Kontakt or similar sprays...but it is just first aid,nothing more...I'll show you why Oldie

After several treatments with Kontakt 60 spray,and couple of minutes in ultrasonic bath,this is a result of some switches.

Take a look at DMM reading...resistance (between contacts) should be zero!!!

Good job you're doing there - and reminding me of the smaller predecessor 7055 which ist already opened. The ground plate is cleaned and the de-emphasis switch as well. But nothing more Floet There are still lots of switches waiting to be unsoldered and cleaned Dash1 But I'm not in a hurry Dance3
Keep cleaning that excellent receiver Oldie

Just take all time you need,7055 is worth it...I never had it, but I read that he is perhaps the best Sony vintage rec.

Robert, what are you using for cleaning the contacts?

Since maybe nine month I'm using this for contacts. Only a little drop on a piece of typewriter paper, only very few, maybe five, soft wipes and the contacts are clean. There's no abrasive effect on the coating, the dirt just washes away. After that I still use a good amount of t6 to wash the parts.
At the moment, this is my best choice Thumbsup
pc board were cleaned,resoldered and recaped (don't be mad at me Armin LOL )

thank you for the info..I'll try to find it here...from that manufacturer I'm using only this product...for insect removing from my car...really...and is very good.

I'm using Kontakt 60,61 and WL respectively,and some polishing paste for heavily damaged contacts

It is a beautiful receiver, lots were sold. It has everything you need and I do not remember it sounding bad. But which Receiver does that?
Also it is one among others. I don't like superlatives, they all get topped by the next superlative.

Cheers Drinks
Nice Job and thank you for the complete list of brochures and manuals.

must agree with you... lots of wisdom in your post Thumbsup
The polishing paste should be about the same stuff I'm using.

and yes, I left those tantalum capacitors alone
despite cleaning all of contacts,one problem occurred.Sometimes,at low volume level,left or right signal is droping down..no tone from one or both channel...low level only.

Speaker relay is cause...his contacts to be precise.

Moin Boyz and hello Robert,

the speaker relay is the only part in my V7 that I used to clean until today Denker

all the pots are still working fine...but when I see your pics...I should get any doubts on what I have been doing up to now.


Why did you exchange some resistors on the two Power Amp PCBs, Robert ?
