    Sansui AU-999 secondary transformer resistances

    Dear experts, I need help knowing the resistances of the secondaries of a 999 transformer. After having obtained :banana:a multivoltage (heavy) :) transformer for my AU-999 100 VAC version to replace the (missing) original one, I would like to compare the secondaries with a good working unit, if...

    Driver question, EPI M202 specifically

    Hello, I have read all the M202 posts I could find, and poked around other restore threads. I don't see an answer, or I am searching incorrectly. I have finally opened up my M202s to start restoring. I am hoping to just re-cap, clean the dial, and replace the binding posts. If the drivers are...

    Left Reel Lock-Up on my Sony TC-366

    I have a sony tc-366 reel to reel machine that I use occasionally to listen to music. Today, after doing so, the machine stopped spinning the reels. I took the cover off and discovered that everything worked fine, the right reel and motors all spun okay, but the left wheel was extremely locked...

    JVC L-A55 tonearm resistance issue

    I've got a JVC L-A55 table in the shop right now, and this thing has me stumped. When I first began messing with this table there was so much resistance in the first quarter of the tonearm's arc, that it wouldn't move at all under normal operation. I've re-lubed the auto return mechanism...

    KEF 107 restoration issues

    Hi everyone, I am currently in the process of restoring a pair of KEF 107s, complete with the original matching KUBE. They had a single previous owner who took good care of them, a retired sound engineer with a severely failing hearing—more on why that might be significant shortly. Talking to...

    CR-2040 Phono Selector Switch?

    Just got my 2040 delivered to my door today. And I'm going over it very carefully. The faceplate needed a bit of cleaning along with a few pots. And the case may need a little attention from a furniture pen. But, overall I'm actually pretty impressed. It's actually in much nicer shape than I was...

    New Cartridge Big Hum no Music

    I have an Bang & Olufsen RX TT and it had an MC 5 cartridge. It played vinyl but volume was soft but could be heard through the speakers. Sent cartridge off to be retipped to a nude MC 3. Installed and all I get is a hum which increases with volume. The ground is tight and the RX phono cables...

    Help with SX-1980 New AWR-154 Board pleeeeze

    Hi AK folks. Long time lurker, first time caller! I'm normally a vintage tube audio guy but couldn't resist a 30 buck SX-1980 at a garage sale maybe 15 years ago. It has the typical toasty power supply board with much of the foil hacked up by a PO. Back then, I couldn't find a used board to...

    Stupid DC resistance question

    While chasing a problem with a receiver, I decided to check resistance of my speakers and speaker wires. What I got was this: Realistic T-120: a) 4.2 ohms b) 4.3 ohms Infinity SM120: a) 3.5 ohms b) 3.6 ohms These are all three way speakers rated at 8 ohms, and I just put the meter across...
