Sansui 661 stereo receiver cutting out
 

I just wanted to say thank you for this bit of advice. I did what you
suggested and the Sansui has been working reliably since.

Thanks!

Resolder these and any sus joints.

I have one of these that has started to cut out on an
intermittant basis. When the problem shows up, I first hear a
sound like a relay tripping then the speakers cut out then within
one or two seconds the speakers cut back in with a scratchy
thump. It will do this several times in a row sometimes stopping
on its own, sometimes stopping after I work the source selector
switch a few times. Sometimes it won't stop and I have to turn
the unit off for a couple of hours. The problem usually shows up
after I've moved the receiver for whatever reason, like hooking
up a different source or to clean under it.

Any thoughts?

(I also need to find a service manual for it.)
