    Marantz 3250b left channel cutting out

    I have a rack consisting of a marantz 3250b and 300dc, and the left channel cuts out. It goes silent while the right continues to play music, until I turn off the speakers, max out the volume until the vu meter starts showing something, lower it again, and turn the speakers back on. Doing this...

    Yamaha CR-600 restoration advice

    This is sort of a two-part question. I've recently picked up a Yamaha CR-600 producing no sound. It passes dim bulb fine, but there's no relay click. Fuses are all good. I was able to set mid-point and idle on the right channel, however the left channel is showing 0L and 0V respectively. All 4...

    Restoration Log on HD66 Speakers

    After acquiring some HD66 speakers from the original owner, I decided to do some restoration work on them as they had RadioShack Subwoofers in them instead of OEM ones. So lucky enough, I found some OEM parts on ebay and installed them this week. This includes the knobs, the woofers, and plastic...

    Norman Laboratories Model 9s Inherited

    Greetings audio goers, I have recently come into ownership of a pair of Norman Laboratories Model 9 speakers. They had been sitting in my grandmothers house collecting dust for over 39 years, at least...(my entire life). I was actually born in Norman, OK and joked about Norman Laboratories...

    JBL Studio Master L200s off the curb!

    I haven't been around AudioKarma for a while since I finished the restoration of these Marantz Imperial 1s (which I listen to daily and LOVE). I wasn't in the market for new speakers, nor was I necessarily "looking" for a new project, but last night, my wife and I were walking the dog when we...

    SX-737 "for parts" resurrection

    My first Pioneer receiver. According to my own rule of thumb - the worse the better - I bought a damaged sx737, missing parts, but new veneer on cabinet. Looked like my tech friend tried to give it a chance, but resigned. This whole resto work was economically unjustified mif you count labor...

    Marantz 8B Restoration

    Hello everyone, I recently picked up a Marantz 8B. It was sitting in a storage area in a church that had been shut down. The local diocese was trying to sell or get rid of whatever they could that was in the building, so I went to get some office furniture on the cheap. I didn't even know...

    I just ordered my test equipment. Feeling excited and nervous about working on my gear!

    I’ve been studying schematics and theory lately in preparation to restore my Sansui 1000A and although at times I get into material that goes over my head (theory related) I feel more and more confident as the days go by about working on my gear. I just ordered a 2-in-1 O’scope and Signal...
