Gentlemen
Greetings
I have a couple of vintage amps and I am looking forward to do TLC on them. I am looking for suggestions for
a. Digital Multimeter
b. Solder gun
c. Capacitor/transistor tester
Various threads have recommended
a. Meco, Rishabh
b. Hakko
c. Chinese with lcd screen
I am not looking for something high end (read expensive - such as fluke) but something sturdy. Looking to spend 6k to 8k max for all three.
I have read that auto range multimeters are better. Suggestions may be given keeping in mind the multimeter would need to measure low current/ voltage.
Learned FMs may kindly guide me by sharing their wealth of knowledge and experience. Brickbats are also welcome.
(I am posting here on purpose because compared to 'what should i buy' thread, i am expecting better suggestions based on experience).
