    2230 pops when the TT turns on and off

    I am running a 6100 TT through my 2230. The receiver pops every time I start and stop the TT. Although I haven't used the 2230 in awhile, I don't recall this happening before. I did just replace my last TT with the 6100. I am wondering if it is the TT or the receiver? Anyone familiar with...

    Marantz 6110 feet fix. May work for other models.

    So in repairing a recently purchased Marantz 6110, I had to figure out a solution for the rubber feet as they wear out and deteriorate after decades of existence. In searching for a solution I read up on several suggestions but thought I could come up with something better. This is what I came...

    Marantz 6100 annoying hum

    Hey Guys I’ve recently found a cheap 6100 and this guy is well conserved but there’s an annoying hum when connected to energy. I’ve strip it down, changed cables, changed those 0,047 caps and have checked the arm wire to make sure the grounds are correctly. Everything looks fine but the hum is...

I’m trying to figure out if the E-99 is a good cart and then get a new stylus or look for something else.

    Marantz 6100 Turntable - 60Hz Pulley

    Hello folks! It's my first time posting here in AK, after many, many years as a reader. :) I recently acquired a beautiful Marantz 6100 Turntable in a near mint condition. The only problem of the unit is that the equipment has european specs (240V~, 50Hz) and here in Brazil we have 60Hz in...

    Lafayette T2000 - CEC build?

    Question for the turntable gurus here: There's a Lafayette T2000 turntable up for sale locally, at what I consider a good price -- that is, if my understanding of these tables is correct. I've read that the t2000 is essentially a Marantz 6100, also built by CEC in the heyday of 70s mass market...

    Intro from Chicagoland

    Hey all, Intro time... Hope everyone's having a great day so far. I've lurked for a while but a recent restoration project prompted me to finally join. I bought a working Sansui AU-717 in the fall of last year from a nice gentleman advertising on craigslist. Everything was good until a one day...

    Marantz 6100 inconsistent reject lever

    Hi. I just grabbed a fine 6100 which functions great except for an inconsistent reject lever. When engaged, sometimes it activates the auto-return immediately, other times you need to hold it for 10 seconds before it engages. Auto-return works flawlessly when the record is finished playing. Any...

    Marantz 6100 or Pioneer PL-15D II for $100?

    Considering buying one of these for $100, to pair with a Marantz 2220. Not concerned with getting a Marantz to match the 2220, just want the best quality. Based on what I've gleaned in various threads here and elsewhere, I'm probably leaning towards the Pioneer, but figured I would solicit some...

    AT440MLa: buy new stylus or replace with a new cartridge?

    The needle/stylus on my AT440MLa needs replacing. This cart is around 12 years old, so is it worth investing in a pricey replacement stylus, or should I just get a completely new cartridge, maybe a AT440MLb? I like the AT fine, but I'm open to suggestions in something comparable in...
