    How to repair arcing power Arc

    Hello good people, I'm having an issue with an arcing power switch in my Philips 22-AH-686 receiver. I thought initially that I had dirty switches / pots but a thorough cleaning did nothing to help. I am fairly sure that the problem is the power switch. I will also test the output transistors...

    Peerless 8-Track Receiver Weak Phono Output

    I'm repairing a junk Peerless HSP-25A 8-track reciever so I can learn about these old systems and have run into a strange (to me) problem. The AM and FM sections now work great, as does the 8-track, but the phono inputs on the back produce very low output. Looking through the schematic...

    Sony ZA1100ES receiver

    Bought this receiver about a month ago and not real happy given the price range. The audio seems to be missing a lot of frequencies and is heavier on the highs. Also specifically unhappy with the equalizer which only has Bass and treble ??? I also have a Yamaha which has a wonderful 8 or 10...

    2330b missing one fm channel and I'm stumped

    I'm working on restoring a 2230b that's generally in good condition. The one major problem I'm trying to figure out is that it only has a left fm channel. I've tested other inputs such as AUX and they have both left and right sound. I also tried taking the audio directly from the preamp output...

    Does anyone know much about this H.H. Scott Turntable?

    I think it's a HH Scott PS59C, someone is giving it away for free with the receivers shown and a couple of pinnacle speakers. Does anyone know much about these? I haven't found a lot of information online other than the typical "It's good for beginners". What should I expect from it? An extra...

    Channel out - remedial help!

    I have a Realistic SA-2001 amp that is having an issue with the right channel input. The sound is very faint - even with the balance turned all the way to the right. It's staticky & pops like a weak AM radio signal. As I type this, the sound became normal (but ...) But when I switched to...

    I have a Sony str-de185 stereo receiver that I found used at a thrift store. It's worked fairly well for a couple of years, besides it cutting out a few times here or there. Now it's doing it much more frequently, and now it isn't coming back on by itself like is normally would. It stays powered...

    Yamaha RX-V1500 will not power on

    I've had this receiver for a year or two. Does not run hot. Never had even a hiccup from it. I usually just leave it on 24/7. The other day, when I was near by it, I heard the fan running. Indeed, it was powered on and the fan was running. I hit the power button and turned it off. I thought this...
