I recently purchased a SX-580 from shopgoodwill.com at an [almost] reasonable price. I've made other bad decisions in my life also. But this not the place for that discussion.
It came with 6/32 screws holding on the side panels. Or better said NOT holding on the side panels. After...
Hi: I have a new-to-me 838 with some minor finish loss. All the color is there, but the gloss is gone where the cover meets the plinth, with the minor-est of black loss. Loss is not all the way to substrate, but getting there in spots. Does any one know of a successful technique to fill or paint...
Hello everyone,
I have a problem with my newly bought Pioneer VSX-529.
I have plugged on it my pc via HDMI cable on the HDMI input. With another HDMI cable, is send the output to my LG Flatron tv.
When I open, close or just refresh a youtube video (doesn't happen with games or local videos)...
After scoring some new speakers at an incredible price at auction I fly approx 600 miles to pick them up as every courier company I ring either wants ridiculous money to transport them ($600) or won't deal with the auction house.
So I hire a campervan (cheapest hire option) and spend the night...
I literally mean the actual stylus piece is completely missing the needle. I'll upload pics later. Almost a year ago, I bought a mint Technics 1210M5G from a pawn shop for $250, and it was a no brainer because we all know the 2M Black itself (which was included) is worth that. Sometime between...
So i've had my PA speakers tested for ohms and 1 of them read 5.5 ohms and the other reads 5.9 ohms they are supposed to be 8 ohms should I worry about that or is that about normal? They was never played very loud since they was always used at home. Since anyway I will be buying a Crown amp soon...
Hi guys I added one more component to my "akai black" setup for the computer space, and I wanted to show it out. Indeed this some gear I do like a Lot! :D
For completeness I will mention that the amp is an AM-2350, the tape deck (just serviced) is a CS-702DII, the equalizer is an EA-A2 (I think...
Here is my black faced Sansui 990DB I picked up at the thrift store a few days ago for $25. Probably going to find its home in the computer room by the time you view the pic.
1980's Zenith. This was obtained for free at a garage sale, had no power. Resoldered the flyback and that fixed it. The tuner feels very flimsy. 1975 RCA 17" black and white. This set was full of ants when I bought it! Had to fumigate it with Raid. 1977 RCA had no color: replaced chroma...
A 1974 RCA Lyceum monitor/receiver with large audio/video patch panel on rear and 20' long grounded power cord. This set is made with a standard RCA portable b-w chassis and an isolation transformer for safety. I bought it from my high school for 12.5 cents (got 8 tv's for a dollar.)
