    Just got my first McIntosh! A MAC 4200 Receiver.

    Hello! Over the course of the last couple of years I have been split between two systems that were both primarily made up of Yamaha components. My first system at home contained a Yamaha R-100 receiver, K-2000 cassette deck, Genesis 1+ speakers, ADC Sound Shaper One Ten MK.II, and a Dual...

    Cutout dimension questions

    Recently fried a speaker in a guitar amplifier (Fender Hot Rod Deluxe) and went shopping for a replacement. I found a speaker I want, but suddenly second guessed when I looked at their specs side-by-side: Cutout diameter, orig. speaker = 10.950" (Eminence Legend 1258) Cutout diameter, fried...

    Boston Acoustic A400--I'm the original owner!

    Yep, bought these if Fargo, ND for $812.00 at Team Electronics back in 1984 if all those memory cells are still working correctly. I'm sure some are misfiring at this point. They were my main speakers until I purchased a pair of Polk RTIa9's a few years back. Now I've gone speaker crazy so...

    Hybrid Amp Replacement Recommendation

    Hi all, I'm starting to look at the possibility of replacing my Luxman LV-105. I primarily play CDs using a Sony DVD with RCA connectors, nothing to write home about, but provides good clarity in my opinion. I also use an FM tuner with RCA connectors. I've got an inexpensive Bluetooth...

    B&W Matrix 803 Tweeters

    Hey everyone! I was able to pick up some B&W matrix 803 speakers today used at a pretty good price. They are in good condition, just need new tweeters (though I have the tweeter housings). Is there any way to get them cheaper than the $720 it will be through the B&W parts store?

    Does the 2sc2878 have a replacement?

    I want to replace the 2sc2878 transistors in my Yamaha AX-390 amplifier’s tone controls, as there is an audible hiss through the speakers and headphone jack, which increases/decreases in intensity as I boost/cut the treble using the knob. So far I’ve uses the Toshiba 2sc2878 datasheet and...

    Replacement belts for Fairchild 412 turntable?

    I just got a Fairchild 412-1A in pretty good condition. It was playing records fairly well until I tried to clean one with the record spinning, at which point the long belt fell off the platter. I think the belt must be old and stretched out, because it comes off at the slightest provocation...

    Mission argonauts tweeter replacement

    I bought a pair of beat up mission argonauts and one of the tweeters ended up being blown/shorted. I want to find a replacement that is most cost effective as i have a limited budget and already have enough speakers so if it gets too expensive, i’ll get rid of them one way or another. Any help...

    KSA1220ays supply or equivalent

    Seems like the KSA1220ays trans is out of stock at DigiKey and Mouser. Latest info from Mouser (Jan 22) indicates a June delivery, which was pushed back from Feb. Not a good sign. Anybody know a suitable equivalent replacement or another qualified source? Application - driver for main power...

    JBL Control 5 Repair or Not

    somebody gave me some JBL Control 5 Monitors. No sound from the low frequency driver on both. Speakers are in tact. No obvious tears, holes, etc. so does that mean a crossover replacement? I’m trying to figure out if they are worth any investment. Is this a major repair?. Or just toss them. The...

    Another C-28 S.O.S.

    I thought I had this preamp settled down and it was behaving fairly "rehabilitated" until very recently. I'm fairly certain it's the volume pot. I have another one and installed it and it works "kinda sorta". Very odd things happening with the channel balances. I I think I see ground wires...

    Replacement Marantz ( and others) switches for speakers etc

    I got the tip from someone else here but I bought three different sizes to see how it compared to the OEM They are damn near identical switches. Given how cheap they are, I cannot see rebuilding the OEMs anymore unless you do not want to unsolder them. Digikey 401-1226-ND for this one $4.20...

    Tweeter replacement for JBL L20T

    Hello, This is my first time posting here, I have a set of JBL L20T speakers and 1 of the tweeters is broken. I looked on ebay for an original replacement, they are all over my budget.

    LEDs running on AC

    So I was going to post this in Marantz but I know these LED replacement lamps are used else where so why not here. I know on the Marantz gear, the lamps behind the dial is around 8 volts AC. Mine actually measures at 7 volts AC. I know LEDs are intended for DC. I think I know that the LED...

    Any "Belt-Go-To-Guys" Here? I need belts, hoping to avoid eBay.

    The speaker guys have their go-to for foam. The receiver guys have their go-to for bulbs. Do you tape guys have a go-to for belts? Deck: Sony TC-WR645S: I'm trying to avoid eBay, due to price mostly - $25 for all four belts or $16 for the ones that I need seems a little steep (or is it? I...

    REGA Planar 3 Replacement Tonearm

    I have an old Rega Planar 3 with a tonearm that is beyond repair. I am looking for a budget replacement arm (oxymoron, I know). Any ideas? I have a Pro-Ject Debut III I received for next to nothing. Is it possible to transplant that tonearm onto the Rega? How different is their geometry?

    AR2A and AR4X Potentiometer Replacements?

    Hi, I have 2 pairs of AR4X's and 1 Pair of AR2A speakers all seem to have issues with the pots. I don't have anytime to do cleaning of the OEM parts, but I would like to just drop in new Pots. There is so much information about cleaning and restoration, that I am some what confused and lost...

    Replacing Vintage KLH Tweeters (Model Twenty Three)

    I recently picked up a pair of KLH model twenty threes (from another AK user in fact). He told me the tweeter was out but he wasn't sure why so I spent some time yesterday recapping the crossover. The woofer still works with a recapped crossover but the tweeter does not so I think I'll need to...

    Are Marantz Remotes RC interchangeable?

    I cannot find a thread of this nowhere in the whole internet! I have recently purchased a Marantz DV7600 DVD SACD. It is working perfectly but it did not come with its remote. As this is a older model from 2007, I cannot find its corresponding remote "RC7600". In ebay or other similar sites I...

    Replacing Tweeter in PSB Alpha

    On the weekend I picked up a set of PSB Alpha's for $10. The tweeters had already been replaced with crappy non-stock tweeters. The seller threw along some Motorola KSN1039A (according to my research) tweeters he said I could swap out. He said these I could just wire in, but if I went with...

    Replacement motor for Dual 1219

    Hi. The motor in my Dual 1219 has broken down and my tech guy says it has to be replaced. I stumbled across this motor on ebay but would like to be certain that it will fit before I commit. I've read that 1019 and 1219 have different motors and this one supposedly works for both, which is a...
