Online window shopping as you do and I came across a lovely looking Sansui AU8500.
Various questions asked of the seller, particularly around capacitors and transistors. I'm told that a couple of small power supply caps were replaced and that all other capacitors and transistors are in perfect condition - apparently it's been hardly used and kept in a glass case. Good for another 50 years I'm told.
Does that sound likely to the good people of the wam?
Meanwhile, you snooze and you lose, the amp has been bought by someone else. Still, be useful to know if people think barely used capacitors can still be good after 50 years....
