Title says it all. All caps look good. As most reference the 2103 capacitor - replaced it with an audio grade 33uf 16v.  No change.  

Any suggestions where to go next?

Boston Dave:

audio grade 33uf 16v.

"Audio grade" won't work.
You need the real brand and type of capacitor.

Thanks Martin-

I will try the units from the capacitor kit.  The one I used was a Nichicon FG series (not FW).

I am desperate to get this CD player working again. Other 6500 components are all functional.

Thanks again- I will follow up for all once we give this a go.

Best, Dave
