Hi, I am very new around here...
I just got this receiver at a yard sale, cleaned it up, looks nice, but the sound, well, she's really not doin' so well. I don't have any background with electronics so maybe I'm in the wrong place. I think it's pretty exciting to start somewhere, know-how or no, right? :yes:
Main problem: The sound is completely tinny and pretty weak, not beautiful and lush. I can imagine this being indicative of "old n tired" syndrome where maybe it will take more skill than can be mustered here to breathe some life into it. But if anyone has a good guess at a cause (and a procedure to try to remedy would be brilliant) please let me know.
Also, the light(s?) in front where the two needles hang down are out. Anyone know if I need to replace a fuse or bulb or what?
I hope my lack of schooling on the subject of your dedication does not offend anyone. Let me know if I'm hopeless!
Thanks, Amy
