    Help Troubleshoot Issues With Sony TA-AX390

    Hi AK - This is my first post so please let me know if there's anything missing or if it needs to go in a different section of the forum. I picked up a Sony TA-AX390 integrated stereo amplifier last spring and have had it for a few months now. I got it for a good deal alongside a separate tuner...

    Amp with variable loudness as peak limiter (?) + mids control for intelligibility. For use with headphones, mainly speech.

    I'm in need of some advice, hope you can help. I'm looking for an integrated amplifier for use in professional remote interpreting. It looks as though no headphone amps have physical tone control knobs these days, so they are out of the question. I need physical tone control knobs, preferably...

    Amp for B&W 805 Matrix

    Hi all, can you advice me a good integrated amp for a pair of B&W 805 Matrix? I know they are hungry of current and watts, due to their low sensitivity (87dB). I was thinking of something like Cambridge, NAD, Rotel, but I'm open to any suggestion. My room is about 4.5m x 3m and speakers are on...

    NAD 316BEE distortion in one channel

    I've got some trouble with my NAD 316BEE (v1) that I've had trouble diagnosing by searching on these forums/the internet in general. I've had the amp about ten years and find it perfect for my needs; after ten years I wouldn't be that sorry to have to replace it, but I'd really rather repair it...

    Phono Hum, even when just RCA plugged in...

    I know, I know...another phono / turntable hum troubleshooting post. In this case, however, I am rather certain that my turntable is not the issue. I think it is the Phono "Equalizer" / Stage on my MCS 2250 amp -- which is essentially a Technics SU-Z400 (manual here). This hum only occurs on...

    AU-911DG and an EQ (Lokius) - Pop Sound when turning ON/OFF and Tape/Source change

    Hi everyone, I use my somewhat recently acquired Sansui AU 911 DG which I truly love for the sound, but recently I introduced an EQ on my system, a Schiit Lokius, and found that when I turn the system on, there is always a pop sound if the volume is around level 35, and the louder the more...

    AR amplifier, problems after recap

    Hello all. I must admit I feel like a bit of an idiot. I finished recapping my AR AU amplifier. It’s the first amplifier that I’ve recapped, and I made a big mistake towards the end, and I’m hoping someone can help me out or point me in the direction of a good tech in my area. You see everything...
