    AR XA Pivot Screws

    Hi All, I've recently inherited my Dad's AR XA TT (Serial # XA226308), which has been sitting in the original box for almost 30 years, and which I'd love to spend some time on getting running again. The issue appears to be that at some point in time, the two pointed pivot screws disappeared...

    Looking for AR XA tonearm screws

    Hi, new forum member here. I hope this post is following the rules. I'm wondering whether anybody knows where I can buy genuine AR XA tonearm screws. I've seen posts that suggest I can find replacements at a hardware store, so I'll try that, but I'd love to get some of the originals. Thanks...

    knight amp screws or fasteners

    I have a Knight kn632 mono tube amp. I bought it a few years ago but never used it. I want to remove the tube cover to take a look, but it is fastened with these strange screws I've never seen before. Instead of a slot in the head of the screws, there is a sort of rectangular indentation, but...

    Pioneer Spec Rack Build

    After years of scrounging around craigslist for values on Pioneer Spec equipment, I finally have enough bits to put together a proper looking rack. Only to learn that the Pioneer Spec racks (JA-R2S) are unobtainium. I pretty much saw that coming. So I developed a plan to make one out of...

    Sansui 2000X shell screws

    A buddy gave me his old 2000X. I just got it back from the shop all rebuilt and it sounds killer. When I got it it was missing the 4 screws which hold the chassis in the the wooden shell. Audio repair shop I took it to didn’t have any spare ones that fit. Any idea what size these are and where I...

    Black slot faceplate (corner) mounting screw question

    I know some of them are 1/4" and some are 1/8" in length, the shorter to avoid hitting the panloc shaft, but are the threads for these screws 6-32? I thought I'd seen this thread here before but I can't find it through Ye Olde Google. I'm seeing some 1911 grip screws on ePrey that look close...

    New to me MC2255 request for assistance

    I finally crossed this off my bucket list. (I picked up a C33 as well...more about it in a separate thread coming soon...) I have discovered that the bottom plate is missing two of the gray/green screws. Does anyone know of a source for them or the parameters for replacements? Also, I'm...

    Nakamichi BX-300 Side Screw thread type??

    Hello. Does anybody know what the thread type/pitch is of the Nakamichi BX-300 side panel screws are? I had some custom side panels made and need longer screws. They look like sheet metal screws but not sure. Thank you very much.

    A Pioneer SA8100 hardware question

    I'm working on recapping a SA8100 I purchased long ago on an online auction site. Someone else had been in there before me, and quite a few of the sheet metal screws are missing. What is the proper replacement for the screws that fastened the power amp PCB to the chassis? That seems to be the...

    Marantz Twenty Seven / 27 - Faceplate Screws

    Hello Everyone! Long time member, first time poster here. I recently purchased a Marantz 27 and am currently cleaning it up. It had a noisy left channel which I fixed by replacing a 458 transistor on the tone board, and am planning on replacing the remaining transistors on the tone board and...

    Just a funny about recycling my Marantz parts

    So I got a 2245 to restore and one of odd things ( it has many) is that all of the bottom cover screws are the wrong ones. They are the parkerized black but about 10mm long. They should be M4x6 not 10s.. oh well, I pull them and set them aside. Move the clock up two months and I get a new TV...

    Pioneer SX D7000, hardware missing

    I'm having a difficult time finding parts for my 80's Pioneer receiver. I recently had a local repair guy working on my receiver. He misplaced the 5 small screws that attach the face plate to the frame, and the two treble/bass sliders that go on the outside of the face plate. I've tried some...
