    Sansui 2000

    I had a bad experience with a kit from ebay seller hifiaudio. They sent the wrong parts and then wanted to charge me more to make it right. Learning to order parts yourself from mouser or digikey is not that hard and very rewarding.

    Sansui TA-500 weak right channel

    Problem found! While listening to a test tone through some headphones I used a plastic ink pen to push, tap and feel around inside until the right channel suddenly got louder when I touched the yellow wire that bridges R40 to R92. I have no idea what that wire is supposed to do, but I...

    Sansui TA-500 weak right channel

    Thank you Hyperion for the suggestions. I checked R27,28,29,30,85 and 86. they were all 4.7 except R30 which was 4.8. I swapped R30 and R29 to see if it made any difference and it didn't. I'll start checking the rest of the resistors while I wait for more suggestions.

    Sansui TA-500 weak right channel

    I recently bought a Sansui TA-500. It sounded fine until I noticed the right side was not as loud the left. I tried headphone and speaker, same result with both. FM and AUX, same result. I adjusted the balance to even it out but when I change the volume it does not stay balanced. I cleaned the...

    Bell 2200C Restore--Cathode Feedback

    I looks like someone made some modifications to this one. It was in my dad's shed. It's probably been there since 1973.

    Would you pay $425 for this bizarrely modded Citation 19?

    My dad put a crown ic-150 on top of his citation 19. It was a good fit.

    Advent loudspeaker econowave 2018

    I should have started this thread with a different title. I should have said "building a new loudspeaker in old OLA boxes", or I want to build some frankenspeakers. Please excuse my blasphemy. The first pair of speakers I ever owned were Advent/2 with the white cabinet and metal grill. If I...

    Advent loudspeaker econowave 2018

    Someone offered to sell my an original pair of woofers with kits to re-cone them for $120. I thought I could get some generic new woofers that would sound just as good for less than that. I don’t expect them to sound original, just decent. I didn’t realize until after my original post that I...

    Advent loudspeaker econowave 2018

    On second thought, maybe I should curb my enthusiasm for this project. I just priced the the econowave parts and that was almost $200, new woofers $238 new veneer and grill cloth about another $50, that's $488! I only paid 50 cents for these speakers at a yard sale and I already have more...

    Advent loudspeaker econowave 2018

    I'll probably get the Advent p001-31858 unless someone has a better suggestion. Or...GRS 10SFPC-B 10" Square Frame Paper Cone Woofer Black...much cheaper

    Advent loudspeaker econowave 2018

    Hi I’m new here and I know that there are already 800+ pages on this subject already. I’ll try to not ask questions that have already been answered. I want to bring this pair of speakers back to life. I bought them at a yard sale with no woofers. What replacement woofers do you recommend with...

    Infinity 4000a crossover

    I am working on a pair of Infinity 4000a speakers and the caps are not going the same direction on each speaker. Is that normal? I’ll post pictures so you can see what I mean.

    Is the power LED on the KA-7100 part of the protection circuit?

    After reading some other posts I thinking my problem might not be the LED at this point.

    Is the power LED on the KA-7100 part of the protection circuit?

    I don’t see the picture you linked. I’ll try and post what I used. It came out of a bug zapper that looks like a little tennis racket.

    Is the power LED on the KA-7100 part of the protection circuit?

    The speaker terminals. It reads 2.3V then rises to about 2.6 when the relay cuts it off in about 30 seconds. I connected speakers and a CD player and it works for 3 or 4 minutes before the relay shuts it off.
