Not to worry, I have plenty of RCA-outputting hardware at my disposal, not to mention some R2Rs
I've been holding off on ordering the caps etc. because I'm going to be very busy for the next three weeks- no time for projects such as this. (Hence I started with something simple like the turntable). After that, I should have plenty of free time to get in to my own projects, and then this will take off
Thus, the original caps are still in place, and it's not quite ready for a bench-test yet...
The epoxy should be cured (>24h) by tonight, so I'm going to grab a test (read: not particularly important) 78 and take it out for a spin.
