my father in law passed away last year and in the process of going through his things I found that he had purchased an AU-9500 brand new back in the 70's
Now this thing seems to be out of commision...
I brought it to my house, plugged in my tt and listened to it through the headphone jack to see if it worked...I can hear sound but it is very faint...volume will go up and down but the sound never gets any louder than basically a whisper
I assume the reason my father in law packed it way is because it is not working
Now my mother in law seems to think she wants to pay to have it fixed....why, I have no reason...she is 80 and seems to think she wants to go hi-fi
Is this thing going to cost her quite a bit to fix? I told her if she wants to listen to her records I could buy her a phono pre-amp and run it through the aux on her boom box...I told her that if she spends money to fix this thing she will have to invest her time in setting up her hi-fi system once again (speakers, etc)
I think her thinking about this thing is wrong and she should take a cheaper rooute to listen to Ray Conniff (LOL)
