storing a HCSE

[jondonwar]

Hi i bought a hall & collins signature echo no353 from the second batch, around must be 2 years now i think, all iv done is switch it on and go through one patch on each of the 12 echos it replicates and it was switched on for no more than 10 or 15 minutes, it sounded great just what i dreamed it would be like, and then i put it back in its original packageing and that is where it is still is todate, my question is do i need to power it up to keep the resistors and other electrical parts in good order,any advice on what or how to store,band broke up before i got to set it up and use it hence the lack of use.

Hi John,
You don't need to do much. You could power it up once every year or two so as to help keep the power supplies filter capacitors well formed.
