Great fun to watch the restoration process…. And yes, pretty amazing sound! Good job!

I realize this is three years after you made this, but I want to share the analogy of driving a 1953 automobile with 1953 oil in the engine crankcase. You wouldn’t do it. There is no integrity in out of tolerance capacitors and resistors. Using that machine for any length of time without replacing the electrolytic capacitors can result in power transformer failure, shorten vacuum valve life and risk a catastrophic breakdown. The replacement parts are relatively inexpensive and a digital voltmeter and some research on DIY electronic repair and restoration can get your machine working safely for another 30+ years. It’ll sound better, too. Perhaps you have a qualified repair shop in your area if you don’t feel comfortable doing the work yourself. Cheers! PS: The Antique Radio Forum is a great place to learn basics of vacuum tube electronics.

Ok, thanks for your comments. Did you actually watch the video? The whole video is about replacing the out of tolerance components. I replaced all caps and some resistors...and yes it sounded better for it!
