    Kenwood KX-31 advice

    I've found the problem... if you look at the attached picture the problem is with part 235, the little end of spring 504 is supposed to keep the spring under tension... this spring presses against the post that raises the play heads. The problem on my deck is part 235 is cracked and the little...

    Kenwood KX-31 advice

    Decided to try my hand at cassette deck repair... yikes... I bought an inexpensive Kenwood KX-31 off of ebay that didn't work but the displays all lit up. I figured it was a simple belt replacement. It came apart relatively easy and I was able to replace the belts within an hour. After holding...

    Luxman R-1050 tuner fuse issue

    Hah, you read my mind... I was just looking up antennas online and wondering if I could just build something or if I have something laying around I could use... I have a little telescopic antenna that came with my little usb sdr tuner... it's meant for fm radio... just not sure if it's 75 or...

    Luxman R-1050 tuner fuse issue

    lol... 6 year old thread... I finally just replaced the fuse and turned it on to see what would happen... replaced it with a 250V, 0.5A.... looks like a fast blow. Been listening to the radio for about half hour and all seems fine so far. I have no antenna but it's picking up the location...

    SL-1200mk2 warm up before platter spins

    Anyone know if this is a known issue that can be fairly easily corrected?... thinking about picking one up but I'm not getting any hits when I google the issue.

    Technics Turntable Noise, can you help diagnose?

    Sorry, I never did find an answer... still have the table though it's just not my main unit anymore. Let me know if you get to the bottom of it.

    Luxman R-1050 tuner fuse issue

    Hey, I just googled this issue and found your thread. Did you ever get anywhere with this? I have the same receiver and noticed a while back that the tuner did not work. I only use it for a turntable amplifier so I didn't do anything with it at the time. I took it apart this weekend to clean out...

    Shure M97xE failed

    Yes, but there's no proper way to fill out the form for me. I tried. Because I'm Canadian but bought it from the US it makes it slightly more complicated. I think the only way to get it sorted is to call.

    Shure M97xE failed

    Nothing to report, called last week but it was after hours. Like someone mentioned earlier... my time is valuable and it's annoying I have to spend any of it doing this. Especially since I've already done it once.

    I need help buying a stylus (and maybe a cart).

    I usually go to NYC a couple of times a year sometimes with work, sometimes for pleasure. I'm going to look at picking up a few more of these next time I'm there. Thanks so much for the hot tip!

    I need help buying a stylus (and maybe a cart).

    Crossed the border yesterday to pick up the package.... they were packed well in a box with bubble wrap. I declared them on the way back (I like to travel in the states and travel there with work a few times a year so NOT getting my name on a list so I can get hassled each time I cross the...

    I need help buying a stylus (and maybe a cart).

    I guess because there's not as many places to buy locally... and a lot of times shipping and duty can ruin any kind of deal you can get from the states.

    Shure M97xE failed

    Yes, this is what I did except I guess I was supposed to contact Shure US because I bought it in the US.

    I need help buying a stylus (and maybe a cart).

    Being Canadian I feel my choices are somewhat limited... I'm looking for a new stylus for my AT440mla cart. Just can't bring myself to pay $300 for the microline stylus right now. I've bought a ATN120EB one before for this cart and I'm satisfied with it... just want to make sure that at $130 I'm...

    Shure M97xE failed

    Sadly it actually did... but I assumed it was an issue with the headshell not making a connection with the contacts in the tonearm... and since it was my backup cart I didn't put much effort into investigating. The last thing I thought it would be was the cart since they typically last a very...

    Just realized why I can't find it on amazon... I'm fairly certain I bought it from kabusa.

    Shure M97xE failed

    I hope they don't request a receipt because I can't find any proof of purchase. I'm fairly certain I ordered it on amazon but I can't find it in my order history on amazon.ca and the archived orders on amazon.com are broken at the moment and I can't retrieve them at all. I know when I received...

    This one was a backup on a second TT... it was very lightly used and not at all abused.
