Thanks! Figured out how to adjust the tone with headphones. I find this so hard to believe that a receiver upgrade changed the sound night and day. Thanks for all the help!

I just fixed mine. Marantz SR7500. Was humming/buzzing very loud at any volume. My advise to you is to: 1) Pop that case off and check for any irregularities 2) Look at all of the capacitors, if any are bulged that is probably where your hum is coming from 3) Blow it out with an air...

After a long wait I got the capacitor in the mail yesterday. Unsoldered the old one, popped the new one in. After some trial and error of forgetting to plug a few cables in I finally got them all hooked up and sound was made! The sound is superb, had no idea that it would sound this much better...

Also thanks for the input. Any way of me giving you +rep? Or this forum doesn't do that

Haha yep. I have quite a bit of experience with auto electrical, soldering caps, transistors, etc to the computers so I can't imagine this being much different. I hooked up it even with the bad cap. and plugged my HD598's into it and my first reaction was ****! I am coming from a Harmon/Kardon...

Well I hit up Radio Shack and they only had axial caps for those specs, no radial. And there are no other stores that sell this stuff near me.

Yeah I have the specs for which one I need, but on that site there are multiple ones with those specs. Should I just buy the one with the highest temperature range? One has 85C he other has 105C What I need is 35v 2200uF, which is easy but again I don't know which one with that specification...

Recently I bought this receiver off of craigslist, now I normally wouldn't do this at all without listening to them, but considering I spent 20 bucks I'm perfectly happy. My problem is that whenever there is no input going into the receiver I hear a humming or buzzing sound that's roughly...
