    Kyocera A710 - front knob removal

    Hey everyone, I'm attempting to clean up and "restore" a recently acquired Kyocera A-710. Somehow the big 4 front knobs are all misaligned relative to their correct center notches. I'm trying to remove them to set them in the correct position with no luck. I've tried Allen keys, various...

    1983 Kyocera Lineup

    I got my hands on a Kyocera DA-01 that I’m working on repairing. Optimistically, I’m thinking it would be fun to collect an all Kyocera system based around what was available in mid-1983 (when the DA-01 was released). According to this May 1983 edition of Audio magazine, I can assume the R-851...

    "Working" receiver does not put out any audio

    I have recently come into the possession of a Kyocera R-861 receiver. It was sold as "working". It looks like a very lovely machine. The wood-grain paneling could use a little love, but I will fill in the broken-up edges with wood putty and carefully paint it to match the veneer. Won't be...

    Kyocera R-451 troubleshooting power

    Have a Kyocera R-451 receiver that has recently stopped powering on. Both AC plugs in the back of the unit are still able to run power to plugged in devices, but the main power switch is not turning the unit on. Novice here who's never had to troubleshoot or attempt a fix for something like...

    Kyocera A-710 puzzle

    Hi all - I have been banging my head against the proverbial wall with a Kyocera A-710 integrated amplifier. It originally came to me with a blown output transistor, which was addressed easily enough (though I was surprised that the emitter-collector short did not take out the .22 ohm emitter...

    Kyocera Receiver Tuner Issue

    I am the proud owner of a Kyocera R-851. This model, and other Kyocera receivers, have tuner issues that are mentioned in several places on this site. Has anyone documented what the issue is? At that, has anyone been able to fix it? I would love to be able to fix mine, these are exceptional...

    Kyocera A-710 restoration project

    Hello Akers, I recently bought a Kyocera A-710 integrated amplifier. This is a wonderful amplifier, but it needs a little love, I think there is a slight volume imbalance between channels. I want to restore the power supply and power amplifier boards beyond just a standard recap of all the...

    Kyocera A-910 Restoration & Information Thread

    Hey fellow AKers, It’s been a while since I posted a new thread about a piece of gear, so I find it fitting to do just that now that I have recently acquired a beautiful Kyocera A-910. Kyocera has been on my radar for a few years now, especially gear from the 910 series. I’ve wanted an A-910...

    Tape Deck plays tapes extremely quietly

    Hi everyone. This is my first post to Audio Karma. A few months ago, my Kyocera D-611 stopped working. The symptoms indicated I simply needed a new idler tire. The other day, I finally got around to ordering a new idler tire. That seems to have solved half the problem and I have something else...

    Kyocera CD players, how is the quality?

    I’ve been looking for a CD player for a while and found a Kyocera da-410cx locally that a guy is willing to let go for $50. I’m on a pretty tight budget, so $50 for a CD player with some good reviews seems like a solid purchase to me. I’m curious to see what AK knows about these Kyocera CD...

    Kyocera PL-701 Belt Size Help

    I have a Kyocera PL-701 in near mint condition that I found at GW for next to nothing. It cleaned up great and sounds even better! I want to get a new belt for it, but see conflicting sizes. I have the owners manual, but it doesn't say. I know it is a more rare table, but I am hoping someone has...
