    Harman Kardon ST-8 Platter Retainer

    Does anybody know what size the retaining clip and washer are for holding the platter in place on a ST-8. I just recently acquired one and it came without these two pieces. The table runs fine without them but it would be nice to have things as they were meant to be. Also, any suggestions on...

    HARMON KARDON REBUILD AND DIM BULB TEST

    I just finished a complete recap on this HK 930, 1972. I have done dozens of rebuilds on newer and bigger receivers. I also did and HK 730 in the past. My client wanted this rebuilt, even though it sounded pretty good to me, and I advised against it at this time. But jobs are hard to come by, so...

    DAC rec for H/K AVR 70 (1996)?

    Hi, I have a 1996-era Harman/Kardon AVR 70. All RCA. No HDMI, no optical in's. My Panasonic TV only has optical audio out; what is a good DAC to use? Also, looking for a somewhat affordable Thorens turntable if you have suggestions. Of course, the AVR 70 has no phono preamp, so I'll have to get...

    DC Offset Issues - Harmon Kardon HK580i

    Struggled for several weeks off and on with an HK580i that had 6.7-7.0 VDC at the speaker terminals on one channel and neither the Offset or the Bias POTS had much effect. Issue was the OEM glue on the back of the Amp board holding down C431 (electrolytic). Over the years the glue had...

    Occassional LOUD cracking and poppin in HK 430 Twin Power

    Got this gem from a coworker. Sounded like lightning in a bottle when I powered it up. He said a channel was out 30 years ago when he shelved it. Worked fine for me, except that it had very loud cracking and popping coming from all channels and even at zero volume. So I cleaned it like crazy...
