Looking for a Schematic for the Aphex 661 tube expressor

[mmatrix]

Just got a used Aphex 661 tube expressor that someone tried to recap and totally screwed up, including cooking the rectifiers and the voltage regulators.  So they replaced the rectifiers and regulators with other parts and tried to "make them work" (jump soldering, not using the traces, drilling holes in the pcb, etc.)  It's a mess.  Does anyone have the 661 schematic so I can get this back to spec and get it up and running?  Thanks a lot.

What can we learn from this ?:

"Stop the recap-everything-insanity !"

Solder-jockeys who don't really know what they are doing never make things better....

AGREED!!!

There never has been and never will be a shortage of idiots.

I believe it's the same unit as the 651 with some tube circuit added. Its schematic is all over the Internet.

I have the schematic for the 651.  The power supply (where the main issue is) is different (for running the tube and the +/-15VDC). There are some other small differences too, like a 12V relay, "auto" function circuit, etc.
