    Sansui TA-300 Find

    Just picked up a TA-300 at a local St Vinny's for $40 "as is" and took it home cause it looked so good. The front is mint, but the insides looked like a Scooby Doo mansion, also missing the AM radio antenna, but since I am under 60 years old, I don't listen to AM anyway. When I turned it on the...

    Pioneer SX-626 Heat sink on Transistors?

    Hi. Just saw a post about a guy pulling his 2SC793 power transistors and they were "dry". When I pulled mine to test, they had a mica insulator. No thermal paste.

    Pioneer SX-626 No Selector Lights

    Hi, My feature/selector lights are out on my Pioneer SX-626. Someone of the forums mentions a 3mp fuse connected to a blue wire. Is that fuse under the chassis? The tuner light and the meter lights work fine. Thanks for any assistance.

    Pioneer SX-626 Wheat Bulb Questions

    Hi, my 626 was given to me and it is mint. But the top wheat bulbs are not lighting and the meter light is out. The meter "bulb" looks like a fuse. Does it act that way too? Could that be why the wheat bulbs are out? I just ordered the LED conversion kit. And the wheat bulbs look to be glued in...

    Leesonic Pioneer SX-626 Review

    Hi, All. I've been living with and digging my Pioneer SX-626 that Lee restored for almost a year now, and thought I'd share the experience. (Apologies to Lee for a delayed review.) The 626 sounds really great. Really. I mean that. I continue to be surprised at the amount of warmth and...
