    Thank you, it’s a nice place to save some money while we rent. My better half has similar taste so it was easy to get it where it is. That pink album you mean? That’s The Sea and Cake, “Car Alarm.” Jazzy, laid back music.

    Thank you! They are just some bins we got from target I think for dvds and random stuff! Black painted panels with wood, nothing too fancy!

    Moved in with my (now) fiance a few months back! Our living room is my favorite place, instantly felt like home. Great size for the set up, these speakers could handle an even bigger room with full range sound! The non-essentials (for me, cd, tape, reel to reel) are not hooked up. We wanted the...

    What TT's do you folks have

    Couldn't afford an MT-10? Just kidding ;)

    Which audio amps/preamps would you keep ... and why?

    What's the goal of the hobby? Have multiple so-so components, mostly sitting around... Or have one set of really good, maybe even new components with a warranty? That's the question I asked myself years ago when I starting selling all my excess.

    Sell them all and buy something new with a warranty.

    McIntosh MAC 4100 - Indicator LED replacements

    anyone know where I can get replacements for these? The AFL and MPX FM indicators are out. So I need one yellow, and one red. Please and thank you.

    TEAC AN-60 - noise reduction unit

    Can't I test it by ear just by monitoring signal through the unit and toggling the switch? I don't have to actually record a tape to test it do I? That would mean you can only record in Dolby but not playback... so That wouldn't make sense, and is why I haven't tried recording to tape to test...

    TEAC AN-60 - noise reduction unit

    Thanks for the info. I cleaned the controls and recapped this unit. Still got a channel out. So when I hit the Dolby switch to "IN" should I hear the signal change?

    TEAC AN-60 - noise reduction unit

    How much of an effect should the noise reduction have on the signal passing through? I know there are different DBX encodes so I wasn't sure. On my Teac X-2000r, DBX is night and day, on this AN-60, I hear no change when dolby is in circuit. Also... Can anyone hook me up with a Service manual?

    SANSUI SP-220 preamp, question about Int'l voltage selection/wrong voltages.

    Anyone here who has one of these units able to check the back of their unit and help out? Or anyone else who has serviced one of these units have any input?

    Thank you John! Saved it this time. haha

    SANSUI SP-220 preamp, question about Int'l voltage selection/wrong voltages.

    That is extremely helpful, and I'll do a little more digging but definitely keep this info on hand to try!! I'm not entirely sure how to deduce voltage ratios by the impedance of the windings... but this might be a good time to learn haha.

    SANSUI SP-220 preamp, question about Int'l voltage selection/wrong voltages.

    Both, and the schematic shows it as being 2ohm as well.

    SANSUI SP-220 preamp, question about Int'l voltage selection/wrong voltages.

    Hi all! I'll try to make this as brief as possible (if someone has the schematic and could post it in here to accompany this thread, that would be greatly appreciated.) Recapping one of these 1958 stereo preamps was a lot of tedious work. It is done however. Signal passes clean, however the...

    It is! I love it. I went from an Audible Illusions L-2 to this, and that says a lot. The phono stage is great! Quiet, easy, fully adjustable... no complaints. We sell Rogue, so if you want to take the plunge let me know! ;)

    Lots of upgrades recently... Sold a few things smaller things, but most major I sold my modded Rega P-25, McIntosh C-26 I restored, my Totem Rainmakers, and my old phono stage. Went from this: To this: New Totem Hawks, and a new vinyl setup: Rega RP8/Apheta 2 and Rega Aria phono stage...

    Marantz 1030 - After restoration/recap, no phono signal in either channel

    I included a picture above of where i jumped the connection that wasn’t there. The base of the second transistor connects to that 50pf cap which then goes to the collector of the same transistor. But the connection from the previous collector to the base (the blue line I drew) wasn’t.

    Marantz 1030 - After restoration/recap, no phono signal in either channel

    So... I am a bit perplexed. I quintuple checked that the transistors were in according to schematic (which they were) and noticed that there was one spot I could trace on the unit: Sorry it’s sideways. The collector of the first transistor should connect directly to the base of the second...

    Marantz 1030 - After restoration/recap, no phono signal in either channel

    I missed this I’m sorry. The original 2sc1344 pair and the 2sc458 pair I replaced were all slant-faced. Is that what you mean by outhouse shaped? I replaced them with KSC1845 according to the board’s ECB silk screening (just as I did in the tone/pre amp board, which works fine through aux). The...

    Marantz 1030 - After restoration/recap, no phono signal in either channel

    Thank you! Unfortunately, the transistors aren’t turning on. I get 35v on the collectors of all four transistors, so there is no current going through the dropping resistors before it hits the collectors from the boards power rail.

    Marantz 1030 - After restoration/recap, no phono signal in either channel

    Yes, and I tried reversing them (even though I already knew the answer) but figured it couldn’t hurt. Still nothing. All my replacements transistors are ordered ECB so there’s no second guessing.
