Hello, Im having some issues with my Onkyo TX-2500MKII Receiver. I went around to putting new bulbs in it, but when I got to the Locked Tuned Stereo lights I had some issues. First one is that the Stereo light didn't work at all. I fixed it somehow by just replacing a transistor (Q110). It works...

Hello fellow audio goobers and nerds out there I need help with my receiver. I got this thing around a year and a half ago at goodwill for 20 dollars and it worked well except for the burnt out lights and dirty pots with i cleaned. I didn't bother fixing the lights because my setup wasn't ready...

Hi everyone! I am having an issue with my Mackie ProFX12 mixer. Basically, the lights just flash when I turn it on. I have replaced C9 and D4 which have made the blinking faster, so I think I'm getting closer to narrowing down my issue. Before I go replace each of the capacitors, does anyone...

I have a Marantz 5220 and a Pioneer CT-F9191. Getting both serviced. Curious if you had to keep one which one would you choose and why? I love the look of both of them. Maybe prefer the look of the Marantz VU meters being two tone. But it’s super hard for me to pick a favorite.

Hello, I have a pioneer SX-580 that has been working for years. Recently the speakers stopped working and it seems that only the left A channel works. The two 4A fuses were blown and when replaced the watt meters jumped around and the right one stayed just over half way. The power ICs were...
