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 60hz. It's there when there is no input on and when I plug digital in the buzz gets louder. It's there with any input and no input at all.
I already knew a very small about fixing some receiver problems and my first thought was that it was just a bad capacitor. Easy fix maybe 5 dollars since I don't need to buy a soldering kit. When I got to the guys house I asked what's wrong with it and he said capacitor. Awesome.
When I got back home I popped the top off and on top of it being incredibly dusty, I noticed one bulged capacitor. So only one of them is bad, which from my reading is most likely the cause of this issue.
So my question is where do I buy a replacement capacitor?
free picture upload it is the last capacitor on the left if you're looking from the back in this picture.
Also, I was reading up and I saw a blog on replacing certain caps. and you can get better sound?
Thanks in advance.
