Yamaha PM1000 Recap Mod Kit Installation Standard and Deluxe

Here are some time lapse videos showing the installation of both the standard and deluxe kits.



Standard Yamaha PM1000 Recap/EQ Mod Kit Install:

In this first video you can see me removing the old caps and installing fresh Wima films to replace the tantalum caps for coupling/high pass and the poly caps with updated values for EQ. I am alos replacing all the electrolytic with Nichicon Audio series in much higher values. I also replace the old crappy ceramic caps with modern MLCC types. This gives better tone and a broader frequency response.



Deluxe Yamaha PM1000 Recap/EQ Mod Kit Install:

The deluxe kit is the same as the standard kit, except it takes about 60% longer to install and that is because include film bypass caps across all the electrolytics on the screenprinted circuit board side.
