    Onkyo tx-670 humming

    Hello, I have an onkyo receiver which hums in the background, especially when the amp and preamp sections are uncoupled. Also, the audio coming out at certain voltages is extremely choppy, sorta like a machine gun firing. I have made a video to help explain the issue.

    Onkyo tx-670 humming in the background

    Hello all, I was able to bring this receiver back to life, but I've encountered a problem. In the background I have a slight hum and I'm not sure what the deal is. If I had more time I'd pull every part and try to figure it out, but I'm hoping for a quick thing to check. I may be crazy, but to...

    Anyone have a picture of an onkyo tx-670

    Hello all, I'm trying to find a picture of the speaker selector switch on an Onkyo tx-670. The markings on mine have worn off, and before testing I want to make sure I don't give power to any speaker outputs that have no speakers connected. Thanks in advance! -Chris

    16 Bit vs. 24 Bit CD Player

    Is there a difference in sound quality between a CD player with a 16 bit DAC for example: http://www.teac.com/product/pd-301/ and a 24 bit DAC for example: http://www.onkyousa.com/Products/model.php?m=C-7030&class=Compact%20Disc

    Onkyo Cp-1057F Trouble

    Hello, I'm pretty new at looking at how TT's work and I need some advice. I left my house for 4 days for the holidays and when I came back, I discovered my Onkyo CP-1057F was not working. The platter just won't turn. I'm hoping it isn't just a bad motor, since it is direct drive. Needle moves...

    Thoughts please... is the NAD D 3020 a significant step up from the Pioneer Elite A20 and/or the Onkyo 9010? Any differences in sound quality you can elaborate on? Thanks.

    Onkyo tx-2500 Missing? Caps

    I picked up a non-working Onkyo for $20 today because of the clean condition, even though no output. Turned out to be blown output fuses and seems to have no issues. I cleaned it up, gave it deoxit and it it is very nice as the photo shows. I went to inspect the boards and for some reason C918...

    Used Affordable Power Amp Suggestions

    Hi All, In tweaking with my McIntosh MA-6100, one thought I had was to try using it as a power amp as it is just missing "something". So, I thought hooking it up to something with some digital ins might not be a bad thing either. The eBay Gods were good to me, and I was able to reasonably...

    Onkyo A-9010

    Any thoughts on this entry level amp? I currently use the Pioneer A-20. I have seen reviews of the Onkyo as being voiced as a "warm" British throwback. This sounds intriguing to me and might be a nice pairing with my Wharfedale Denton 80th speakers. Any thoughts welcome.

    Onkyo TX-35???

    I have never heard of this one before. Someone grabbed it at a yard sale for me at a $20 gamble. All I know is that it is early 80s and is 45 WPC. Anyone have/had one of these? What are you thoughts? It looks cool enough, quite a lot of buttons for my taste, more of a knob guy, but it screams...

    We were at a neighborhood garage sale yesterday and at one of the first places I stopped I spotted a vintage receiver: an Onkyo TX-2500. It was being sold by the original owner, who bought it new in the late seventies and said it had been used, and not used gently, at many dorm parties when he...

    Problem with second zone on Onkyo TX-DS555 Receiver

    I've been dealing with an Onkyo TS-DX555 receiver that has no audio at the remote speaker zone (as it is known on this model). On this model, instead of A and B speakers driven by the main front amplifiers, it uses the surround amp channels to drive remote speakers. The sequence is to press...

    Hey all, Anyone have any experience with or general knowledge about Onkyo DX-710 CD players? I have the opportunity to get one for what seems to be a reasonable deal but at a price that I'm not willing to just throw caution to the wind - I'd appreciate any thoughts on sound quality, build...
