Hi, do you know what is going on with his site? I'm asking because the you've obviously been in touch with the guy and your message is relatively recent. I looked into buying something from him a few years ago (see below) and he was apparently moving and was unable to take requests. I just...

I don't own this unit so I'm going by pictures here. You need two sets of RCA stereo interconnects. If it's the same as the one pictured in the link below: http://product-images.highwire.com/6043951/7813-6.jpg you'd use the "ext pros" jacks. Out means "out to" and in means "in from", so the...

Service manual for the Teac: http://elektrotanya.com/?q=showresult&what=Teac%20CR-H100&kategoria=&kat2=all

To confirm it's the relay, you can try gently tapping on it and see if there's any effect. Just be careful not to get a shock, use a plastic or wood tool to be safe.

Thanks, I'll check it out. I don't want or need anything right now but I miss going to look at stuff I haven't seen before. High rents seem to have killed off a lot of the businesses on Queen West that had character.

So that's it? I wasn't going to ask until after you'd bought it but would you mind saying where this store is? I used to know a bunch of places to find used stereo components but that was 10 years ago and many of them are gone now. I just like to go and look.

Is your meter autoranging? If not and you have it set to say the 200 ohm scale and try to read a 1k resistor, it will show open.

The schematic shows the left channel and includes Q501, the right channel is a duplicate that is not shown for simplicity except at the input and output (and would have Q601 so yes, one for each channel). Anyway, you're getting over my pay grade now, hopefully someone more knowledgeable will...

I'm a beginner at fixing electronics too. I'm wondering where you got the replacement STKs. From what I have read here, genuine STKs haven't been available for years, unless they are taken from a working unit. So you're getting the right voltages at pins 12 & 14 on the STKs and there's no DC...

The ones I ordered are now out of stock (they only had 11 when I ordered them): http://www.digikey.ca/product-search/en?KeyWords=399-11411-ND&WT.z_header=search_go The terminals on them are tiny though, they didn't have the picture there when I ordered them or I would have gone with something...

Looks like a factory thing: http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=531310&stc=1&d=1407271555 edit: That picture is from my father's receiver, I posted this thread about that odd replacement: http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/showthread.php?t=607856 I haven't done the...

I've been taking books out of the library on repairing electronics, about 12 different ones so far. Every one of them goes into theory at some level but not as deep into the math as a textbook so they're quite readable. Some are better than others but I've learned something from every one of...

bare, it's Digi-key who has the $8 shipping to Canada because they ship it from Winnipeg (so no duties/brokerage fees etc). Mouser charges $20 since they ship from the States (unless the order is over $200, then it's free) but the $20 also takes care of those extra fees and sometimes one place...

Yes, you've come to the right place. Please, at least tell us what country you're in, voltages differ around the world. You can get the service manual here: http://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/technics/sa-200.shtml You have to register, but it's free. I see it uses fuses to protect the...

Does it play music normally, without distortion when it's not popping? Have you checked for DC at the speaker terminals? I'm far from an expert at this but snap, crackle and pop (if it's not due to a switch or volume or other control) always makes me think flaky transistor or IC. You can use...

I had this problem on a Technics SA-GX300 receiver I fixed recently (vintage 1990, I don't know how similar your unit is inside). Without warning, the speaker relay would drop out and the display would go blank. It would go days without a problem, then some days it would happen a lot...

How's the balance control? It's a known defect with this preamp, it causes the signal to go off on one side or cut in and out. I managed to repair mine by taking it apart and reattaching metal wipers (actually, doing a google search on C2 balance control is how I found Audiokarma). I did a...

If you get some long interconnects, you can bring it to your listening location and adjust it there.

You'll get better results when you use the 'Search AK with Google' option.

Yeah, we all have those "if only I could go back in time to five minutes before" moments. The other amp's output stage acted as virtually a short circuit to your Denon. The fuse being black means a lot of current went through it before it blew. The dim-bulb is a light bulb wired in series...

You realize that you might have blown the output transistors, right? Maybe the ones in the other amp too. In order to prevent further damage you should not turn either amp on again until you have a dim-bulb tester in series with the plug and definitely don't run any good speakers off either...

I downloaded a copy of the service manual and I see it uses a 1A fuse for 220V/240V markets and a 2A fuse for North America. Also, see this picture: http://www.elkristin.de/pics0412/7_N19032013_f_036.jpg So assuming you're in North America, it should draw somewhere in the area of 200...

I found that part listed at: http://www.partsimple.com/vd1221m-sfs-n-13.html but if they're no good to begin with then I guess there's no point.

Hi, you can find the service manual here (you have to register first): http://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/onkyo/tx-560.shtml Is it like a radio static hiss? Does it change with volume?

View the output on the remote through a digital camera to see if it's sending out a signal when you push those buttons.
