Hi, complete newbie here so sorry for hijacking the thread and probably silly questions. I've also recently been working on overhauling an A60 and have a couple of things I can't work out from browsing the forums. Any advice is very welcome!
If replacing resistors with metal film types, do I need to worry about the wattage rating? 0.25W resistors seem standard but will these be sufficient?
The A60 manual has a list of components in its suggested upgrade. I've noticed that some of these don't match the ratings in my amp, which is a first revision (without the IC regulators, 6800uf smoothing caps instead of 10000uf etc.). The parts specified match the later revisions according to the schematics. The manual says that the upgrade is suitable for all models -- does this mean that I can replace parts with the different specs listed in the upgrade? And if so, would this require all parts to be updated at once?
Thanks for any suggestions!
