Pioneer transistor socket

Hello!

I created this socket to replace the original ones in my Pioneer A-X530 from 1987. The original ones became brittle and, after cracking, couldn't put pressure in the transistors' pins. That was causing poor sound quality, and even loosing completely the sound in a channel.

To install these, you first need to unsolder the metallic pins and transplant them to this new bracket.

I hope this will help you to fix your (old) vintage Pioneer. If so, please leave me a message so I will know it was useful for someone else!
