    Special SX-780 - Could use some help.

    Short back story. Given as a birthday gift to me from my son. He thinks I can fix anything which is great but not always the case lol. Thankfully he only paid $25 from a friend for it. Cosmetically it's beautiful. Electronically it's in need of a lot of TLC. It was taken apart by the previous...

    Azden YM-P50C Stylus ?

    I hope everyone is healthy and keeping themselves busy. I have a Pioneer PL-530 that I have restored. It came with an Azden YM-P50C without a stylus that I put away as I have a brand new AT-VM95E that I have been using. It sounds really nice but I have been reading up on the Azden. From what I...

    Erhard PAS NGT Questions.....

    Evening and Happy New Year! I have finished restoring my ST-70 and I am thrilled with the sound so far. I'm also pretty happy with how it turned out. I am now on a search for a preamp to go with it. I am currently using my Marantz 2265 as a preamp for the 70. I have a very nice PL-530 turntable...

    Welborne Labs ST70 bias, caps and tube questions

    I picked up this ST-70 a few weeks ago and have been cleaning it, going over it and deciding on tube choice for when I set it up after Christmas. The wife's decorations require I take my system out for the holidays. I have a few questions. While going over the amp I noticed that whoever did the...

    Welborne ST-70 has arrived w pics

    I just got back from picking it up. The owner had his younger son there. A little arrogant guy with an obvious Napoleon issue lol. Settled above what we talked about as I guess the son did a little research. It’s fine. It’s mine and it appears to be in damn near mint condition. Have to manual...

    Good evening, I picked up this 175 in decent shape. Tubes are not the best but that will be corrected.

    PHILCO console question....

    Officially have the tube bug BAD! I have a chance to pick up this PHILCO console for nothing. Literally just have to go get it. I can’t make out the model number but my biggest question would be, is it stereo? Owner says it is but I’m having doubts. You don’t see a lot of threads on PHILCO amps...

    Luxman M12 issues... Hoping for help

    I recently picked up a gorgeous setup consisting of a M12 amp, CX 101 Pre-amp and TX 101 tuner. MINT in every aspect. Powered up the unit and to my dismay there was no output from the left channel. I started the normal trouble shooting of swapping speakers, cables, checking fuses, swapping...

    Luxman M-12, C-12 and T-12 stack... What’s fair?

    Was at a party yesterday and after talking with a good friends dad we got stereos. He mentioned he had an old system in the basement in the boxes he was looking to clean out. His son didn’t want it because it was “From the 80’s”. He took me down and showed me a complete set of Luxman boxes with...

    TriTrix TL or Solstice

    I had a chance to hear the TriTrix TL’s at the Staten Island meet that Chris brought and I fell in love with them. I could not believe the sound came out of those speakers and their cost. That being said I also love the design and look of the Parts Express solstice speakers. The big question...

    Marantz TT Question

    I have a line on a Marantz TT 451 that looks to be in really nice shape. It also looks like a Linear tracking TT. Am I correct? It seems to be hard to google anything other then belts or stylus info for it. Would it be worth $50 if working? Thanks for the help and any info. Bobby

    1060 Restoration question...

    I just picked up a nice 1060 but it needs a real going over. The plan is a full restoration on it. I have been pouring over threads trying to put a list together and came upon this site. Is this complete "Rebuild Kit" worth the money? It includes a new power switch and LED power light. Seems...
