I have a Pioneer SX-535 that is in overall nice condition, except there is no sound through one channel on either A or B setting.
I am going to clean the pots and switches, but I opened the case and noticed a coil on the amp board (I think) looks burnt where it meets the board. Is this my problem?
I am looking for some advice on where to go next. The left channel does not work on the turntable. So far, this is what I have tried:
1. Eliminated the stereo as the variable - I reversed the RCA cable on the phono input and the left channel started working and the right did not - so I know...
Bought the Rotel amp about 6 months ago, and recapped the two power supply caps. Got some horrible resonating treble notes so put the old caps back. All good till about six weeks ago when left channel is dead at start up and gets going after 15 minutes or so (after a bit of intermittent...
I figured I might post this here, though I also submitted to the Beoworld forum (but haven't heard anything yet - cf. http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/t/26308.aspx)
I wanted to pick your brains about a tape deck I have, the Beocord 2400: https://www.beoworld.org/prod_details.asp?pid=945...
Hi All!
It's been a while since I've worked on any pieces, but here I am elbow deep in a cherry little 1060 amp that I found recently.
She powered up and worked just fine but had that muddy kind of sound that seems to be a popular complaint about them. So I read up on several 1060 recap threads...
Hi there forum!
The other day I picked up a Teac A-450 for 25 bucks on craigslist. I wasn't expecting much, but under some dust it looked pretty clean in the pics. When I picked it up, the guy told me he thought a channel was out, but that other than that it worked.
Got her home and tonight I...
I've had a lot of problems keeping my pre up and running for long periods of time. My knowledge on repairs is limited and the thing works sometimes. I have used deoxit several time now and that does seem to fix whatever issues I have, but after about a month a new malfunction will appear. The...
Hi guys, I've had a power cut at home (one of the bad ones, where power comes and goes) and though it was turned off, I see my Sansui AU-D9 stopped working on one channel. I'm still not sure if it's related. Both this amp and a Yamaha were connected to a speaker switch.
At first the Yamaha...
Hello
I have an old Technics SU-8022 Amplifier, and a few days ago I was testing some speakers with it, but the protection fuses were blowing all the time. Now I figured out that this was caused by the speaker, I don't know why, it has 4Ohms (3,5 with my cheap multimeter) which is OK for this...
Hey guys. I guess I should introduce myself first. I've been a lurker here for a while, and have built up my audio knowledge mostly thanks to everyone in this forum, so thanks. Yet, no matter how much I read and use the search bar, I cant find a solution to this issue I'm having.
I have a...
I received a Sansui 7900Z from my dad. There were some problems with it before I got it so my dad took it to a shop to get fixed. He thought there was only something wrong with the power switch. They wanted a lot of money to repair it which we didn't want to spend. Instead we took it back and...
Hi! I have an Onkyo tx-904 tuner that I got from Craigslist for $40, and I noticed just today that the left channel only works when you turn the volume up to around 20-25, which is pretty loud. I have the balance in the middle, and everything set properly. Anyone have a solution to this?
