    Yamaha p520 direct drive turntable not spinning.

    I am working on a yamaha p520 and it doesn't spin at all. Any clue what it could be ? I tried to measure the output of power transformer but I couldn't get any voltage reading. One other thing I noticed is that the strobe light doesn't turn off if the arm is in the off position but it does start...

    Velodyne HGS 18 Repair

    Hello everyone, I have a rather specific inquiry regarding the Velodyne HGS 18. I bought the subwoofer a few months ago, but there are certain frequencies that make the sub bottom out, (even with gain at less than one) which should essentially not be happening. Because there are lower...

    Velodyne ULD subwoofer Servo Cable Question

    I am currently using a vintage Velodyne ULD-15 subwoofer from 1986 in my home theater setup. More or less happy with it, although I suspect the 5-pin servo cable has a short in it somewhere. The cable works well, but If it's moved, it sometimes causes the driver to pop, or worse - so I don't...

    Dayton ultimax Driver Swap for Velodyne hgs18 advice

    Hello fellow AKer's! I have a Velodyne Hgs 18 that has some unique behavior. It seems to bottom out at specific low frequencies, even at low volume. But can handle much lower notes even at much higher volume. Me and AudioFreak71 seem to think it may possibly be the servo. Regardless, there's an...

    Denon POA 2200 repair/recap - some notes

    Nothing earth-shaking here but thought I'd post some pictures and notes for anyone who runs into a similar situation. I acquired a POA2200 power amp last year. The previous owner gave full disclosure that it seemed to have intermittent problems, but I couldn't make it misbehave. Actually the...

    Teac A-3440 with capstan servo fault (found where but not why)

    Hi, I'm stuck trying to find out why the capstan motor on a Teac A-3440 doesn't spin when the safety lever is pulled (as if a tape was loaded). I restored the power supply board (recaped, all silicon diodes replaced). All fuses are good. Capstan motor has 30V going to it. A quick test by...

    We sell a lot of vintage cassette decks here and I'm in charge of restoring them and keeping them on the shelves and not in the back room. I've done many since I started here and for some reason there's been a craze amongst old timers and hipsters all coming in for some classic analog decks...

    Philips ga-202, motor stopped turning.

    im looking for some help troubleshooting this little gem. It started with an intermittent problem that went away whenever I tried to test it out. Now it is solid. Lights up, but no motor movement in any of the 3 speed settings. I homed the motor, and as far as I can tell, the windings seem to...
