    Connecting composite video to Denon AVRS660H

    Just bought a 15$ composite to HDMI converter; it works just fine. As you may have guessed, I have not had to use the composite inputs on the DENON. My old entry level AVR had composite and HDMI entries and made the conversion to my HDMI entry input of my flat TV. What I don't catch (maybe I...

    Connecting composite video to Denon AVRS660H

    Just realised that this unit has no analog to hdmi converter; I had thought that was not the case, cause the video input. My bad!

    Connecting composite video to Denon AVRS660H

    I am not a member of any AVR forum except here; I hope I can resolve my problem here. I just bought this new Denon AVRS660H to be used with my LG Oled C2 55. It is working just ok with my TV provider, BluRay, Satellite STB, all 4K and connected to HDMI inputs on the Denon. I am trying to get...

    Heathkit AR-1515: Problems after recapping

    The crystal was indeed the culprit. I used the one suggested by txturbo. At first I just soldered it in parallel with the old one: same problem. Then I removed the old one, and it worked. The new one is rather tiny, as compared to the older. I have lately ordered parts to reburbish a sansui 771...

    Sansui 771 Refurbishing the F-1499 board

    I am planning to refurbish the F-1499 board. I know that I am a bit late at the party, as some pieces are no longer available or hard to get. Initially I wanted to make the following substitutions: Pair 2SC1124/2SA706 with KSC2690AYS/KSA1220AYS 2S276 diff pair with KSA992FTA What would be a...

    Heathkit AR-1515: Problems after recapping

    I have been searching for days, if not weeks, where the trouble came from; I have thoroughly inspected the RF and IF boards, at one time doubting if the FM tuner was still working, and found ... nothing. I was not looking at the right place: on the Power Supply board war indeed a solder bridge...

    Heathkit AR-1515: Problems after recapping

    Some time ago I decided to recap my AR 1515 that I had built in late 70s. I relied heavily on the work of dlucy here: https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/recapping-and-restoring-and-upgrading-a-heathkit-ar-1515-receiver.891978/ (Thanks, dlucy!). (Sorry,I did not found the trick to...

    AR-1500 Recapping and restoring: problem with the control board

    You seem to be quite knowledgeable (Don't be shy). I perused some of your commentaries while searching about the LTP and other audio problems. I have some education (M.Sc in physics, teached all my life physics and mathematics at the College level) and was always interested in audio as an aside...
