    Hafler DH-200 - Input jack replacement

    I recently picked up a Hafler DH-200 with some pretty degraded rca input jacks. I want to replace with these chassis mount ones. It looks like the old jacks are grounded to the chassis but am not sure. Do the replacement ones get grounded to the chassis of the unit or should I isolate them? On...

    Help With Mac 1700

    I just got a Mac 1700 and am having some issues. It worked fine when I purchased it, but now that it's with me I'm having trouble getting it to output anything. The tuner isn't picking up anything at all (even static) and each input seems to be playing anything but the input that its being...

    MX113 Low Left Channel

    Hi all. Just finished replacing all of the important capacitors on my MX113. I did not change any transistors, I do not have experience diagnosing transistor issues. Working great with two caveats: - A low hiss on both channels. Happens on both Aux and Tape inputs, and both Main and Tape...

    Hello, I need to replace the blue "ladder" slide which links the front panel rotary input switch to the linear input switch on the input board. The thin flat metal strip has broken and I can't manage to solder something on it. I don't know the right term for this part, and can't find a...

    Kenwood KA-9100 - phono input(s) for MC or MM?

    Hello, I'm searching since a few days but I find no answer: The KA-9100 has two phono inputs. A friend told me one is for a MM the other for a MC cartridge. Sadly I find nothing in the manual or somewhere else. Is this true? Or are both inputs for MM (or MC)? Thanks a lot for any help. Peter

    My guess is that you just put it on contact with bare speaker wire but I'm not sure. Thanks.

    Roksan Kandy amplifier - One input broken?

    Hi, I have a Roksan Kandy integrated amplifier, with multiple working inputs. But the "CD" input has no sound. I can repair electronics, but I'm confused with this. The RCA connector itself is fine, it passes current with a multimeter. It then goes into a circuit, circled in red: Is it...

    Weak Right Channel, Only Aux and Tape Inputs

    Hey everyone, I have a Kenwood KR-4070 that I've used for about two years now with no problems but recently I noticed that the right channel is very quiet, but only while running through either the Aux or Tape inputs. The Phono input works flawlessly and has great sound through both L/R...

    Marantz 2265B - AUX Being Heard in Phono

    Hi, I just bought a used 2265B. Overall, sounds great, works great. One thing I noticed when I was trying it out... I had my computer audio going into AUX and was listening to the playback. When I switched it from AUX to Phone 1 AND 2, I could still hear the AUX audio coming through. It was...

    500b - Loud buzz in Tape Head & Phono IF inputs unplugged.

    Hi all, I just received a Fisher 500b. It's great, but I immediately noticed a very loud, constant buzzing hum if Tape Head is selected. I have no tape players of any description, so there is no connection and no signal going into the Tape Head inputs. Out of curiosity, I pulled out my Phono...

    Recording levels not equal on cassette tape

    I have a JVC KD-A5 that plays tapes normally, but when I go to record onto it, from the radio or any other source, the left meter reacts normally and the right meter doesn't react unless I turn the levels past peaking compared to the left meter. The levels coming out do represent the meters, so...

    Using both DIN and RCA on one tape input

    Hi guys, Quick question: Is there any harm in using both the DIN connection and the RCA ones on a single tape input, for two different input devices? Exemple: I'm running out of inputs on my Kenwood KA-6100 so I put my reel to reel on the RCAs of "tape B" and my cassette deck on the DIN input...

    Acurus A250 and starground

    Hey Ak I'm restoring my Acurus A250 and at the same time making some mods, this includes new starground curciut. I'm splitting input and feedbackground (now they share same ground at input), but what about D3/D6...??? I parallel a 4,7uf/470nf cap over these for lower noise, but should I also...

    C2200 Phono Section

    I am using the phono input switched to AUX with my Lehmann phono preamp plugged into it. I see that the tubes are still glowing? The manual states that the tubes should not be active if the input is labeled AUX. Can someone clarify this for me? Thanks!
