    Sony PSX70 Auto cue issues

    This board it a bit more complicated then the last one I recapped. Should I start with c101 and c102? Or are there caps actually in the power supply?

    Sony PSX70 Auto cue issues

    Thanks Harolda. Starting to suspect its the IC. The tonearm now sometimes goes all the way to the center and sometimes gets to the edge of the record and pulsates . If i use the arm transport and cue myself the auto return doesnt work.. I think i know the answer. But what are the chances of...

    Sony PSX70 Auto cue issues

    HI guys, Just picked up this PSX75. It is in amazing shape, from the original owner. While i was looking at it the auto function stopped working. The tonearm moves to almost center then returns. I suspect the LEDs, However if no record is on the platter the tonearm travels to just the edge of...

    Rescued a pair of Technics SB 100s....

    So ive taken them all apart cleaned and once again made sure all was in phase. Still poor bass response. Moved them upstairs to a small room and as far as bass goes my mission 770s blow them away. they sound even more harsh and bright in a smaller room. could it just be the woofers i bought? I...

    Rescued a pair of Technics SB 100s....

    Double checked. All seems connected correct. If I may ask What do you have the gain at on your crossover for mids and highs? What else would you check? Another observation, with the gain set to zero on the crossover. I’m getting more mid than bass out of the woofer...

    Rescued a pair of Technics SB 100s....

    So its been a year and i finally got the original woofers from japan. I used a site called from-japan as my proxy and im amazed at how great they were. Obviously i was excited to hear these babys sing. Popped the woofers in and turned up some Beatles. I had the selectors for the mid and tweets...

    220v JVC QL-y66 for use in Canada possible?

    I want to buy this TT but im a bit worried about the fact that its a 220v. Ive read all the stuff on step down transformers and now im hesitant on buying it. Do i need a step down for this table? Is it gonna cause me any grief? Anyone with any experience on this, i would love your input. Thanks :)

    Luxman C02 Pre Phono stage issues...

    Its there regardless if something is plugged in or not. I just find it really strange that its just on the MC setting. I moved stuff around, changed plugs. No dice. Its an annoying sound too, Its like listening to a blank tape. Hiss noise.

    Luxman C02 Pre Phono stage issues...

    Hi Guys, any idea what could be causing noise on the phono section of this preamp? With nothing plugged into it makes static noise only on the MC settings, Getting progressively worse from MC high to MC low. MM is quiet so are all other inputs. Thoughts? Advice? Thanks :)

    Rescued a pair of Technics SB 100s....

    Should be 30mm or about 12" I hooked em up. And all works, mostly. There is some static when I turn up the volume, I'm starting to think I'm gonna tear them right down and do a serious clean. Hopefully the horns come apart east and I can get access to all nooks and crannies. These things were...

    Rescued a pair of Technics SB 100s....

    I think bastardizing is my only option. If I ever come across the originals I would eventually replace whatever I put in. But for now, I'll take what will sound good or hopefully better than stock. Got any suggestions? Saw those. It's not a valid auction. Unfortunately.

    What should the resistance values be? Do you know by chance? Should they all read 8ohms?

    Awesome!! that's perfect. So next thing would be, I haven't tested them yet to see if the horns work. Is there anyway they might damage my amp? How do I make sure that doesn't happen?
