CR-820 relay buzzing
Hey team. Dug out an 820 that has been kicking the kiester for about 3 years. Got it to where I can actually turn it on without smoke and fire! But the protection relay buzzes constantly. Measured 3.3 vdc and stable at the collector of TR805, so I imagine that a 12 vdc relay would chatter. Not... -
CR 820 Resistor burns up when powered on
Recapped the 820, including the filter caps which had degraded to about 75%. Deoxit all switches. No left channel. Swapped the output trannies made no difference. Replaced all left channel diodes and transistors 701-721 in left channel. Found fuse resistor FR701 open. Replaced it with a 68 ohm... -

Adding Pre-out/Main in to Yamaha CR-820
I'm planning to add a subwoofer to my setup and am wanting to add a pre-out/main-in RCA connection to my receiver. After studying the schematic I think I've found the best place to make this addition but wanted to see if anyone else has done this before and if what I'm thinking of doing is the... -

Yamaha CR-820 cleaning input select switch and mute button
I have a CR-820 that I picked up a few weeks ago. I've since replaced the lamps and sprayed the pots with Deoxit/Faderlube. Today I noticed that the Input select switch seems to be dirty, left channel intermittently cuts out on AUX. In the past the mute button has also seemed to stick on one... -
Gear Pairing
Hello AK, once again I emerge from my lurking to ask some advice on my next audio purchase. As some of you may remember, I purchased a pair of JBL 4410's in June of last year. I have been powering them with an interim Pioneer SA-1060 I had laying around from an old system I built in high...- CharlieG

CR-2040 Phono Selector Switch?
Just got my 2040 delivered to my door today. And I'm going over it very carefully. The faceplate needed a bit of cleaning along with a few pots. And the case may need a little attention from a furniture pen. But, overall I'm actually pretty impressed. It's actually in much nicer shape than I was...- Red_Raider

CR-820 Power Issue
I haven't been able to find a good schematic that has voltages on it for this unit. I am assuming that the transformer is suspect. I have 121VAC between the brown and gray wires which Ii assume are the inputs to the transformer. On the output side I have 2 red, 2 orange, a black, and a blue... -
Project: Yamaha CR-820 (Rebuild)
About a month ago... was able to pick up two CRs - both were non-working. Have much gear and only Yammie was a DSP-A1 (beefy) which was included with a purchase of some Infinity RS-IIIb. I really liked it, but I moved it down the road to keep with the silver theme. These were in...- Super Noob

CR-820 Front Panel Lights Out
I've read enough over the years that I finally decided to jump in and purchased a CR-820, but I'm still very new. I'm a pretty handy guy in general, but don't deal with electronics to the extent that I would be 100% comfortable poking around too much. Having said that, the lights are out on the...- dustin81783
