Does anyone have a schematic for a Luxman SQ38D? I mostly require
info on the tone amp section. The one I have has been modified and
I need to restore it to standard.



** The " SQ38D" was released in Japan in 1965 - do you really have
one of them ?


**I REALLY do have one of them. In pristine nick too. This being the
beastie in question:

A long series of " SQ38 " amps were released including the "SQ-38D"
in 1998.

Earlier models had triode output valves ( 6RA8s ) made in Japan,
later ones uses regular 6BQ5s.

Luxman schems were always near impossible to obtain - certainly so
here in Australia.


**Some were. I have a half a filing cabinet drawer full. Mostly solid
state though. A legacy of being a major service agent for the product
from 1980 'till Interdyn let go of the product. In fact, I have a few
doubles if you need anything.
