    Revox B77 only plays and records on right channel

    Could a faulty monitor switch be the cause of this? Also the left audio level rotary switch is broken off on the back of the machine, but it played with this part already broken. Left side just went out.

    Why is my Revox PR99 Mk3 playing now at 15ips?

    I changed out my power board, my tape transport control board 1.177.317 and my Capstan Speed Control board,1.177.325 and changed outage motor capacitors. My tape deck came to life. It now plays through my headphones, though I haven't tried it connected to a preamp and my VU meters work now. I...

    Output Amplifier 1.177.880 in a Revox PR99 MK3

    I found a totally rebuilt 1.177.880 output amplifier. Would this board work in a Revox PR99, Mk3 that is supposed to have a 1.177.882/883?

    Revox g36 speaker specs

    The speaker on my Revox G36 is toast. I'm not sure if it could even be reconed. Does anyone know the specs? I think it's an 8 inch, possibly a 4 ohms. Thanks for any help.

    Revox G36 vacuum tube order

    Does anyone tell me the order of vacuum tubes for the Revox G36? It would seem the type of tubes and order in which they were inserted would be in either the service manual or the Owner's manual. All I can find is V1 through V12 in the service manual. The labeling on the original tubes are worn...

    Revox PR99 MKlll Play button not engaging

    I have a Revox PR99 Mklll that the Play button quit engaging. It tries to engage but cuts off. The End of Tape sensors work as the tape stops on Fast Forward at the end of the tape.. My question is: Is the Tape Drive Control Board responsible for this issue or the Capstan Speed board? I was told...

    Koetsu SA-1100D Counterweights

    Is there anyone on the forum familiar with the Koetsu SA-1100D? I am trying to find the lighter 170gm counterweight. I had read that this tonearm was OEM'd to Jelco and was similar to the Jelco SA-750 but had better bearings and materials. I'm not sure that the dimensions are exactly the same...

    Thorens TP14 on TD124 armboard

    Does anyone know of someone who rebuilds these? I have continuity in the wires, but the wiring needs to be soldered to cable with some rca plugs. Also the lift mechanism is very stiff. I think the old oil is dry and probably needs replacement. Thanks for any help.

    Recommendations: Internet radio tuner for McIntosh System

    Recently, we lost our only classical analog station, which reformatted to rock, here in Music City AKA Nashville. Now all it seems we get analog is Rap, New Wave or Country Rock. Classical is available on HD radio now. I am thinking to get an internet radio tuner that will be compatible with my...

    McIntosh MC240 and Stax SRD -7 electrostatic speaker adapter

    Can I run a Mcintosh tube amp with electrostatic headphones using a Stax SRD-7 adapter only, without loudspeakers, and not harm the amplifier? If so, does anyone know which impedience I would use? 4 ohm, 8 ohm or 16 ohm?

    Sony Walkman WM-D6 not playing

    I have this Walkman that's been sitting in my drawer for years. I decided to get it out and see if it still works. The capstans seem to work fine in forward and reverse, but it just doesn't play. I got a little sound out of it when I turn up the volume loud. I hardly ever used it. The head looks...

    Revox b225 doesn't spin cd's

    These have, I think, Philips CDM-1 drive. Are these reliable units? This one doesn't spin cd's when I push play. Are these belt driven? Or could it be a connector? Seems fairly easy to take apart.

    I am getting into electrostatic headphones

    I have bought two Stax amplifiers: an SRD-7, which I think requires hooking up to amplifier output and an SRM-1 Mk-2, which I don't think requires being hooked up to amplifier output but instead need to be hooked up to preamp output. The instructions says that Rec Out terminal are preferred on...

    McIntosh MCD7005

    How sensitive are these CD players to minor scratches? I am hearing that these CD players will not play unless the disc is near perfect, giving a "damaged disc" error. Is that true? I have been thinking of buying one of these players.

    McIntosh L10w and L66 cabinets

    I'm looking for a cabinet to fit a McIntosh MR65B tuner. I am reading on the McIntosh Compedium that the mid c20's fit both the L10 and the L66 cabinets. The MR65B tuner also fits the L66 cabinet. Does this mean an L10 or L10W will also fit the MR65B tuner? Thanks for any help on this.

    New to me McIntosh C20

    I just received today what I think is an early C20. However, it has all JJ tubes 12ax7’s in all the sockets even in the 2 12au7 sockets. I’m intending to get 2 12au7’s. Does anyone have experience with JJ tubes? What brand did McIntosh use originally? The reason I think it’s early is because the...

    Ortofon RMG 212 setting stylus pressure

    I have an Ortofon RMG 212, and I'm trying to set the stylus pressure. The set up instructions on Vinylengine are confusing to me. As I slide the counterweight away from the SPU, it seems to give more stylus pressure. This is counterintuitive to me but works. The adjustment scale on the end with...
