    Semiconductor cross reference book.

    There are a lot of threads here about cross referencing. The books are somewhat useless because aside from nte few if any suppliers have a cross reference book. That's not to say most replacements aren't available Now you need to read spec sheet and match up applications to your need. There...

    Well, well, well

    There was probably a time , not so long ago that might've ended up on my shelf. I find myself listening more and tinkering less. Kind of where I wanted to end up anyway.

    Nashville

    I recently got back from Nashville. I really had no clue what to expect. First I really enjoyed the trip. Took a tour or the Ryman auditorium. Saw the Saturday night show at the grand Ole oprey. I recommend both. Went to Carters vintage guitars. If you have any interest in guitars , I really...

    Recapping and restoring and upgrading a Heathkit AR-1515 receiver

    I don't know for sure, but I think, dlucy has the original build documents. Also when he rebuilt mine, IIRC, the main cap values weren't available in the (physical) size as the originals. I think he used smaller caps and build up around them so they fit the Clamps. I haven't heard from Doug in...

    Do you know what speakers are in this video?

    First glance by by admittedly uneducated eye were quads. Being how 2 answers came in a minute apart with the same answer , I'd bet they're right.

    Recapping and restoring and upgrading a Heathkit AR-1515 receiver

    If you don't have a dim bulb tester, build one. I think I'd try to isolate the ps from anything else and see if the short clears. If it doesn't, it's in the ps, ( which is my guess). If not , likely in one of the amp boards, isolate one at a time. If you were a tech, you probably forgot more...

    Could i ask a novice question? Those appear to be older style shifter/ derailers. Can you in fact buy new old style (non indexed derailers and levers)? or am i not recognizing modern pieces?

    In-rush Switch Box for McIntosh 240: Necessary?

    I was thinking one switch runs through lamp and other switch bypasses lamp. My thought was let heaters warm before applying full b+. Again if it functions properly (the 240) not necessary.

    In-rush Switch Box for McIntosh 240: Necessary?

    It looks like a dim bulb tester with a shunt ( a switch that bypasses the bulb). IMO while its not a terrible idea, its really not necessary. I suspect most people running 240s and/or 30s or 40s are running them without issues without one. Its more of a test tool than a protective device. kind...

    What is a good substitute for a Sony 6060FW receiver?

    a 6120 is about the same animal. both built like a tank. the 6065 has the sonic chops just not quite robustly made.

    Turntable Hum, Can't Solve It

    I had ( probably still do someplace) a budgie phono pre. I'm not saying it's your problem but I seem to remember I had an issue and reflowed a solder joint which caused a hum. At the time , I didn't have time to dig into it so I set it aside. So if I found today it'd probably have the same hum...

    EV-charging causing mechanical hum.

    1st world problem. You're probably not alone. At the very least I suspect whatever artifacts are being created will be addressed in future designs.

    Dual 1245 problems

    It sounds like possibly 2 different issues. With the anti skate set properly the arm should move neither in nor out when queued . It's not impossible there's a skip on your album. I'd try another album. Some carts are better trackers than others. You might not have that problem using another...

    Info on carts for Beogram

    Hey, My brother- in-law is with his nephew who has PX-2. Apparently he needs a cart. It's one of the rabbit holes I managed to avoid along the journey. I seem to remember they have specific carts though. Also I think there are vendors that retip them. Could somebody shed a little light on...
