Paul,
I have done so in many sets, but not all. A certain supplier advertised
the Sony 0.1 ohm resistors at a very good price. Flyer said Sony
originals. I ordered 20. What they sent was 0.1 ohm flameproof. The
first time one of my techs used one it blew up like a firecracker. True,
he had missed something in rebuilding the supply, but the Sony originals
will fail quietly and, I suspect, much quicker. I threw the rest of the
resistors I got into the trash.
Have not used that supplier since then.
