Power & Audio Fixes - SABA Meersburg W3 Restoration pt.2

Описание: In this second episode of the SABA Meersburg W3 restoration, I dive into the power supply, replacing the aging selenium rectifier with my custom MOSFET rectifier/voltage dropper, allowing precise control over the B+ voltage. With that sorted, I move on to the audio section, tracking down an annoying crackling noise—which, despite my initial suspicion of silver mica disease, turned out to be leaky capacitors! A full recap later, and the sound is clean once again!
