    My Sony STR-7045 is Back

    My trusty Sony STR-7045 is back in service. My Fosi BT20A is sitting in the closet. I'm listening KPFA's Sunday Show podcast. Being vintage, it has some issues. But, I'm going to double clean the far-left input selector switch with DeOxit. I think that'll solve the crosstalk I'm hearing when I...

    Pioneer SX-939 drunk warble on aux signal

    Hi! Running into my aux input of my sx939 and the signal has a slow drunk modulation to it? Any idea what might be going on and how I might rectify it? It’s pretty consistent. Thank you in advance!

    I'm a noob - SX-737 Rebuild (follow along?)

    Ok, so not a total noob. A few years ago I successfully replaced all the 2SA725s and 2SC1313s. Decided to carry on and do a full recap since nothing else has ever been touched. I purchased the recap kit from eBay and opened her up today, starting with testing the output transistors per the kit's...

    Kenwood KR-V9030 not outputting left channel

    I have a Kenwood KR-V9030 receiver that I inherited from my father. It was stored in a garage used for woodworking so it is dusty and hasn't been used in a while. The right outputs sound great but I get absolutely nothing out the left, even from headphones. I have tried multiple inputs as well...

    Denon AVR x2100w Protection Circuit/Mode

    My 2100 was working flawlessly until my 9-year-old was showing off and cranked up the volume super fast up to max volume. It was there for about 5 seconds before it got turned back down. Ever since the protection light will come on when you power on the receiver, but only sometimes. Sometimes it...

    I’m cleaning out my grandpa’s basement and house after he passed away, including the old Sherwood audio system setup in the living room.

    Show some love for recievers!

    While I was doing research before I bought my Mcintosh 4100 I came across a lot threads about them and other recievers. But, they all were pitting on reciever against another. It shows that a lot of people are passionate about their recievers so I thought I'd start a thread where people can...
