    Receiver choices

    Hello all, I am looking for a vintage receiver to support my Yamaha YP-D71 TT. I currently have a Fisher 1035 but am looking for something with a little bit more output and a cleaner sound. Am looking forward to your responses. Thank you so much.

    Hi AK community, Hoping someone can help me find some answers ASAP on a 1122dc I just acquired. It was a little dirty but otherwise in fine condition.

    Replacing transistors in 2226B

    Hi! Im looking to replace the transistors in my 2226B, that has a lot of popping and noise in the left channel. After switching the pre-out/main-in, the noise switches to the right channel, so it has to be in the pre-amp board I guess. As stated in a previous tread, all the knobs on the front...

    Marantz 2238b No bass/mids on Right Channel

    I recently acquired a very clean Marantz 2238b. It was recapped a few years ago, cleaned, and the bulbs were swapped with LEDs. The work was performed at a professional shop here in the midwest (at the request of the prior owner). The left channel works perfectly. The right channel has great...

    Connecting a Preamp to Multi-Channel Analog Inputs?

    I have a late 1990's Onkyo Integra DTR-5 AVR that has quite a few features that I love (even compared with modern replacements), and it has no problem driving most of the speakers that I own. I'm no longer using it in my primary home theater setup, but I was hoping to keep it and use it as a...

    Mostly mid-'70s stuff. I like the warm sounds -- and the cool lamps. Sometimes I'll just turn everything on and lower the room lights, whether I'm listening or watching a movie. They make for lovely, soothing (if relatively expensive) nightlights. Anyway, this is the kind of stereo showroom...

    Looking for a nice amp to power Celestion sl-12s

    My father-in-law recently passed and left me some amazing speakers. I know these require a lot of power.. they say 150w on the back near the speaker terminals. What would be a good amp pairing for them? Aesthetically, I really like Marantz, Sansui, and McIntosh. In a perfect world, I'd like to...
