    Onkyo TX-4500 Transistor replacement

    Hi Folks, I just joined as I have a question about what modern equivalent to use in replacing a 2SC945 in my Onkyo TX-4500 (not MKII). This is for Q504 and the parts list in the service manual lists it as 2SC945(L, P). I have both the KSC1845FTA and KSC945CYTA on hand. My question: is one or...

    Onkyo TX-8555 Left channel crackle

    I have an Onkyo TX-8555 receiver/amplifier I've had since about 2008. Recently I started hearing crackling noises in the left channel. The noises are intermittent, not constant, maybe once every 10-30 seconds. It's not that loud but it's just noisy and persistent enough to be irritating...

    History of Onkyo receivers/amps? (especially A-45)

    Someone near me is selling a beautiful Onkyo A-45, but I don't know much about 1980s Onkyo equipment and see nothing about the A-45 online other than a couple Ebay listings. Does anyone have experience with this receiver/amp? Was this part of a larger "A" series? Bonus points if anyone can...

    Onkyo TX-7000 Missing Speaker Selector Potentiometer

    Hi AK’ers, I recently brought home an Onkyo TX-7000. It was in okay shape, I was told it worked. The caveat being the Speaker Selector shaft being what seems like it snapped off. The rotary still turns, but I need to use a pliers to do it. I can’t seem to find nearly any spare parts for this...

    Onkyo Integra A-809 Blowing Fuses

    Hi all, I recently picked up this A-809 in unknown condition for $25. I figured for the price, it may be worth the troubleshooting project. I knew that it at least had the well known input selector issue, but it also appears to have a short somewhere. After opening I immediately saw that the...

    Sansui Eight Bass

    I recently acquired an excellent condition Sansui Eight and was very excited to fire it up once I finally found a power cord after hearing all the rave about how great this receiver is.
