Hi On a variety of levels, yes, the 5370 is the box to get first (and maybe second and third).
Checking power supplies and cleaning contacts goes a long way on a 5370. Who knows what to do on a 5371 or 5372. Just finding the service manuals on them is no easy task (yes, I have a copy, not looking for another).
