    Philips GA-247 idler wheel arm misaligned – speeds incorrect

    Hello everyone, I recently bought a Philips GA-247 turntable and I’m having an issue with the idler wheel arm alignment. When I select the speeds, the idler wheel does not touch the correct part of the motor pulley: At 16 RPM, instead of touching the thinnest step of the pulley, the idler wheel...

    Is Philips GF 504 a good starting turntable?

    My father just gave me his turntable from the 70s. It is a Phillips GF 504. Is this a good starting turntable? I have a few questions: Will it scratch my records if I use it, or is it safe to play them freely? Is it capable of playing 180g records without issues? Since the plate is small...

    First time speaker build.

    I've recently acquired a pair of 3 way speakers used by 2 generations in my family and hold sentimental value, Unfortunately the boxes are falling apart and there is no way to save them. Since it was not a calculated box, I needed to know the enclosure size and port dimensions for a BR enclosure...

    Hey all, First time posting here so forgive potential submission errors (I will endeavor to fix any missing required information as I know about it).

    Phillips/Marantz SR series. Did they use STK's in those?

    Back in the 80's I sold few SR series but most of us at the audio shop regarded them as inferior. All though in hindsight it may be a bit unfair as I don't believe they were any worse than any other of the stuff being made then. My question to those who know a bit more about the brand is. Were...

    Advice: Ohm B’s and Phillips 212 tt

    I have the opportunity to purchase the above kit for $150 for both. Seems like a good price sight unseen. Waiting to hear about their condition. Has any one heard the Ohm B’s? Replacement woofers seem VERY P pricey. The TT needs a new belt which is no problem. Any advice welcome. Thanks

    Tuner Advice

    I have a Marantz Model 20 (not 20B), and a Sony ST-5000FW. A Radio X modified ST-5000FW is the best sounding tuner I've ever heard, but I've certainly not heard everything. What would be the better tuner in which to invest with restoration/modifications? What other tuners would be recommended...

    Vintage "Bose" Speakers with Phillips drivers?

    Picked up a couple of unmarked speakers yesterday and would love to know what they actually are. There was a blue sticky note on one that simply said "Bose speaker", I thought that for $10 being in nice condition they might be a bargain although they sure didn't look like any of my other Bose...

    Marantz MR 1155

    There seems to be a lot of hate online for this generation of Marantz, which is a real shame. I think it has two great things going for it. 1. It sounds better than any other receiver I have ever had 2. It wasn't like 400-900 dollars. So where does the hate stem from in these transitional...
