    3300 Control Console pops when switching High Filter switch if Tone is IN.

    Hi All, I am trying to finish up a Model 3300 Preamp that was restored by someone. Was brought to me not passing signal on right side. All transistors on the Phono/X10/Tone boards had been replaced with KSC1845 and KSA733's. I did locate a PNP transistor that was in backwards on the X10 Board...

    Headphones for speaker comparisons

    Any thoughts on headphones for comparisons of loudspeaker tonality? I'm comparing loudspeakers vs headphone overall frequency response. I do realize its apples vs oranges but I've yet to find a pair of headphones locally and under $300 that don't sound peaked at bass and high treble.

    1960's Collaro Turntable - Proper wiring for tone arm

    I'm restoring an old Magnavox Stereo Console Model 1SC 268F, with a Collaro turntable. Not sure the year, but 60's era for sure. I'm swimming upstream if you consider I've only successfully restored about 5 so far and I don't have a schematic or service manual and I am self trained, so I don't...

    2245 P400 tone board

    I have to say, even after new caps, the sound was a bit "scratchy" like the pots needed cleaning with random pops etc. I replaced the transistors and WHAMO.. clean sound :) I guess it was worth two nights of matching 100 transistors :D They were so cheap at 100, I couldn't pass it up. This...

    Share and share alike ;) 2265B and 2285B

    So a while back I restored a 2285B but I knew it had a bent volume control shaft and a flaky balance pot. And it's like finding hen's teeth to get replacements. What i found sorta by accident is the that the tone board and parts on the 2265B and the 2285B are the exact same down to having the...

    2230 Update

    Oh the joys of a restoration ;) So I finally had some time to put into the 2230 of mine. I could not get the stereo lights ( 2) to work. I had pulled the bulbs which were toast and replaced them with some LEDs I gotten off eBay as a package deal. The LEDs were warm white and worked fine on the...

    1070 unbalanced volume

    Hey All, I have a 1070 that I have recapped the power amp, pre-amp/tone and power supply. I am able to adjust the DC offset and bias to spec of 0mv and 10mv and they hold steady for both channels. My problem is the left channel is noticeably louder a brighter than the right. I have listened...

    Micro (Seiki) pop!

    I have a Micro (Seiki) MR-322 that I really like. One slight annoyance though. The motor turns on automatically when you lift the tonearm off the arm rest and it shuts off when you place the tonearm back. Each time the motor starts or stops there is an audible click that comes through the...
