    Installing Crossover for Pioneer S-HF21-LR

    I'll put my question up front and backstory is below the schematic. Do you think I'd get an improvement if I were to install a proper crossover into all eight of these speakers? (not really asking about is it "worth it" since I think I know the answer to that based on the cost and labor) There...

    KEF C75 Crossover fixing: how to identify inductor values from color bands?

    TL;DR I can't figure out the value in milli Henry of the 5 inductors of the crossover. Could someone help me? From what I understand inductors can be color coded from 3 to 5 bands. But for example the E on my crossover has only 2 bands... I found this website with the color code input...

    What the heck is this circuit board component?

    I'm restoring a portable Masterworks M-8608 8-track cartridge player. I couldn't ever find any schematics on this unit unfortunately. There's these little 2-leg purple disk things on the main circuit board and I'm trying to figure out what the heck they are. I'd replace them if they're bad, but...

    Melted inductor & blown capacitors AR9LS

    Hello AKers About 5 years ago I acquired a pair of AR9LS. I sourced new capacitors and resistors and updated the crossovers using the old inductors. In the last listening session involving home brew and elevated listening levels, an issue related to one of the speakers became apparent. Upon...

    Inductor Style Combinations in Crossovers

    In the options of inductors, folks often choose between the air core, the solid core and the toroidal. There are benefits and drawbacks inherent to each. What I have not seen or discussed anywhere on the web is the mixing of these styles in series for crossovers. Eg, solid core with an air core...

    Yamaha NS-344 Speakers The Definitive Thread (Maybe)

    After benefiting from the work of others for years, I've finally decided to give back to the community. I recently purchased a set of vintage Yamaha NS-344 speakers off eBay. They're in really good condition but I noticed when listening that the right midrange speaker wasn't producing much...

    Klipsch Heresy I Restore, oh no not another one.

    I got a set of original Heresy's a couple of years ago. When I got them I hooked them up and they were unimpressive. I was hoping for 1980's boomy base to shake the room and that was not there. It never will be there until you buy Heresy IV's (or so I have heard). I Googled and Googled and...

I picked up a free pair of Advent Heritage speakers, and after evicting the chipmunk living inside one of them, removing the random assortment of wood screws someone...

    RCA WO-535A Help!

    I'm trying to get to the next level on a budget. I was gifted this scope. The scope is super clean inside and out. There are 2 variable inductors or chokes on the vertical board. One was broken in half, the other had a leg not soldered in and partly hanging loose. The devices look identical in...
