Upfor sale here is this complete rebuild set for a Pioneer SX-680. This is all the parts you need to rebuild a Pioneer SX-680 power supply board, tuner board, and front main board (the one with the amplifier section, preamplifier section, and phono EQ), and replace the two main caps as well. Over time, capacitors and transistors start acting up and need to be replaced. The old parts are weak and failing. We will make them new again!
This kit includes:Power Supply board kit:
7capacitors6 diodes2 transistors
Tuner board kit:19 capacitors2 transistors
Front Main board kit:
33 capacitors12 transistors
2 replacement main capacitors (Nichicon VR 10000 uf 50v)
These are all high-quality brand new genuineparts. The capacitors are 105° Panasonic FC, Nichicon PW, Nichicon KL, Wima film, and Nichicon VR (for the main caps) capacitors at the same or improved uf and voltage ratings, and the transistors & diodes are the correct Fairchild/OnSemi subs for the originals. These are extremely high-quality parts, and they are what I use when I rebuild Pioneer gear. These are not guaranteed to fix your SX-680, but they will certainly help it run better, and will fix many non-working SX-680s. This kit does not include any fuses, resistors, or the output STK packs.
A note about STK packs:
The Pioneer SX-680 uses a pair of STK-0039 or STK-0040 Darlington Power Packs for outputs--one for each channel. These go bad in so many exciting ways! The receiver could start blowing fuses, it could lose a channel, it could have distortion on one channel, or any number of other things, all from STK pack issues. There are tons of STK packs on , and they're pretty much all modern Chinese fakes. If you are looking for a replacement pack, I would recommend either watching for a used working pull or buying one of the kits where you can replace the STKs with discrete output transistors. The Chinese fakes are cheap, but they will just blow up or break in other fun ways, and you'll be back where you started.
I will include a surprisingly well-written instruction sheet, but this is a moderately complicated rebuild, though it's not too bad, and you should know what you're doing and have a decent soldering iron, heat-sink compound, and a dim-bulb tester with a 60W or 100W incandescent bulb.
