    Large Advent Loudspeakers (1974)?

    Early ones especially. I've never met a Sansui speaker I've liked. They tried to stuff too many speakers in a cabinet, and in my opinion (and in Henry Kloss's), that doens't bode well for sound.

    MCS 3285 followed me home

    I beg to differ. Considering this was 1982-84, it stacks up great if not better than many of the other name brands' models of the day. What other maker had 5 transformers powering the different sections? Cross talk was non-existent in this model at any level.

    Zelle or Venmo vs PayPal - am I protected as a seller? User tips?

    I agree it makes no sense. When I spoke to their agent (who sounded like they were from India), they said it was out of their hands now, and I would have to wait for this person's bank to make a decision. They said they had forwarded all of the case history to that bank, and as you can guess...

    Relay Click Timing on a 7070?

    I really hate making a post about this, but I need a bit of guidance. I've got a Sansui 7070 with no output. The output transisitors check out good. I'm getting an RL01 relay click (F-2625 board) at the point of turning on the unit, and I'm concerned that this would not be correct. Doesn't...

    Silver-face era Pioneer SX-x2x and SX-x3x receivers with gold or bronze face

    This same thing was done by Scott, and Scott received rebuke for their anodizing not matching from unit to unit. There was too much variance in coloration from vendor to vendor.

    Yamaha YP-B4 Belt Drive Running Slow

    Hey, thanks for the comment. As I understand it, these tables were made by CEC, and are extremely reliable. I will putz around with it until I at least get it very close. As you note, the belt will be a critical factor. One person that worked on one noted that it's a good idea to swap the...

    Yamaha YP-B4 Belt Drive Running Slow

    Thanks. I ordered one from a pretty legit guy on eBay. I hope he is right, and that it's the correct dimensions. BTW, thank you for your service to our country on this Veteran's Day weekend.

    Yamaha YP-B4 Belt Drive Running Slow

    Thanks, do you know of a reliable source, by chance? I realize sellers are all over eBay, but they'll send you the wrong one either in length and thickness and not bat an eye unless you complain. I am well aware of that. Many sellers will not specify if the thickness is OEM or just some...
