I'd like to take it down so the four heat sinks are off the chassis, and the two driver boards are out for a good decrudding and degriming, but cannot think of a good way to do it. All of the final transistor wires would need to come off the driver boards (there are solder sleeves) and the two green and two red power supply wires would have to come off. Here are some pics:

Wires from driver boards to transistors on heat sink. Note the two red power supply wires coming in from the left.


So it's something to ponder. Where to desolder? It will be fun and satisfying to rebuild (reassemble) the final amplifier stages after everything is deoxidized, defluxed recapped and restored.
