    recently bought on ebay, audio dimensions modified pas. everything works. after cleaning, especially going over circuit board traces with q tips and lighter fluid, sound dramatically improved. as to caps, theyre all mostly sprague. big orange drops 600v. where do i start with this preamp, it sounds cold and boxy. on my st-70 im using solens. i like them. the p.s electrolytics are huge plus the multisection cap is still used under the selenium rectifier bracket are 2 sprague,similar to originals. so thats 4 caps plus the quad filter cap...............the board caps are a mix of different brands. they are all hard to read. need a schematic or part list or manual if someone has any. again, help prioitizing what to do first......just want a warmer sound, thanks for any info. ED.

    You can get the original Dynaco PAS preamp manuals from the Tubes4hifi web site at the links below. The PAS-3X just has slightly different tone controls than the PAS-2/3. The PAS-3 is the same as the PAS-2 but has the more modern champagne face plate.

    Also > If you need help with your PAS preamp, I would recommend contacting Holger at Tube Nirvana. Check out his PAS preamp modification page at the link below.
