I've recently imported a Denon DP-47F from Japan to the UK, the seller assured me that at the time of shipping, all functions worked as they should. However, upon testing it after receiving it, it appears that both the start and stop buttons are not functioning correctly. Pressing start will...
1. Still need to toggle from 45 to 33 to get the quartz lock to engage (this was a problem before re-capping)
2. The VTR dial is still off. If a scale reads 2 grams, the dial reads 2.3
Do I need an oscilliscope to fix this? i can't imagine it being a contact problem, but I'll give that a try...
I got a Denon DP-47f a while ago, which I really enjoy. Recently, however, it has been sporadically behaving erratically. For example, it suddenly stops playing and the tone arm returns to the rest. Or the ‘locate’ function only reaches a certain point on the record, but not further, and stops...
Hi there, greetings from a newbie on audiokarma,
I recently got a Denon DP47-f record player. It is functioning fine but I'n struggling with the arm adjustment. Using this forum I understood how I can set the lead in for 30cm records. It's quite simpel, using a small flat head screwdriver...
I've been looking to make a turntable upgrade (I've got two Technics, an SL-1700 & SL-Q3). I've spotted a Denon DP-47F for $225 locally. That sounds like a great deal since it sells on eBay for $400+ not including shipping. However in this case, the TT powers up, but no further testing has been...
Hi guys
I've been looking into buying a new cartridge, and the search has thrown me into a loop.
The context: I bought a Denon DP-47f turntable about a year ago. Great table. It came however with an AT95E cartridge. The cartridge sounds fine but it definitely seems to be a limitation. The low...
I have a strange situation with my Denon DP-47F. A few days ago, the sound got dodgy, like there was dust on the stylus. One channel went off intermittently. The stylus of the Ortofon 2m Red was clean. Eventually both channels played fine. But yesterday I replaced the cartridge with an Empire...
Hello all,
I recently left the USA and retired to the Japanese western countryside and decided to get back into audio. I took delivery of a used Denon DP-47F with a DIATONE AMG-44 cartridge. The cartridge is a MM, as well as my new Onkyo A-9010 44 WATT amplifier preamp. I am enjoying records...
I decided to recap my old DP-47f, not because it is showing its age, but instead based on the suggestions of some kind members of this forum, who explained the risks that using old caps presents, especially in an all-electronic microprocessor-controlled turntable like this one.
I found a page...
I have the Denon DP-47F that it's an Ebay purchase and I have a few problems with the tonearm.First the tonearm wouldn't move but I've managed to fix this problem by spraying a solvent in the tonearm bearing as it seemed stuck. The only issue I have now is that the tonearm just drops on the...
