    Japanese Domestic Market Service Manuals - Anybody know where to find them?

    I have a couple of amps that are Japanese only silver faced amps from the late 70's, a M-73 And M-77. The M-77 is related to the Spec-2 so I can hopefully just use that service manual. However the M-73 is a different story, can't find anything other than the 90's amp of the same name. Does...

    PL-707 Quartz Lock Issue - Capacitors?

    I just acquired a Pioneer PL-707 Turntable in decent condition. I ran through it, gave it a good clean, switches and what not. I have a feeling it hasn't seen action in decades. So it works, but it has issues with the speed at start up. After it warms up say after 20mins it plays like a champ...

    Akai GXC-570D MK1 - STOP button not working.

    I was hoping someone on Audiokarma had a answer for this. So recently I acquired a Akai GXC-570D MK1 worked perfectly and now within the last week or so the stop button doesn't work. It seemed to be intermittent at first but now just doesn't work. I had read of other owners having a similar...
