Here is a schematic diagram of the radio, too bad videokaram does not allow to upload larger files, so I have to shrink it down...
Some of these low end stereo's actually sounded pretty good for what they are; but, don't expect floor shaking volume. With a 50EH5, you're probably good for around 1-1.5 watts/channel of undistorted power.

Also, use caution when working on the stereo chassis because it is a "hot" chassis. That means that one side of the AC line is connected to the chassis, either directly or thru a capacitor.
