    Sony ES Take Deck Eject button

    New sub! New sub!

    So, I grabbed a new toy today. An SVS sub, model SB12-NSD for $400 new on sale. It's literally a couple of hours old and not broken in yet, but already is awesome. It's replacing 2 10" ported subs at 100watts each. I'm not going to say it's louder than the 2 subs I had, but it's loud enough...

    Odd diode in Sony str-v3

    Hi all, I have a quick question about replacing a diode in my Sony str-v3. The diode is a Sv04S and I can't find a replacement anywhere for it. Does anyone know what to replace it with?

    My early Sony ES system

    A few months ago, I managed to purchase a complete Sony system on craigslist. Included was a TA-1120A integrated amplifier, SS-3300 speakers, a PS-3000 turntable, and ST-5000F tuner, all purchased in 1970 or 1971. I even got the original paperwork and the folding dust cover for the turntable...

    Old Sony TA-212A Amplifier, Technical help needed.

    Hey! My name is Bo, and I'm totally new to this forum. (I like it already though). I recently bought a Sony TA-212A Amplifier (Dutch release) second handed. I love it. It's got cool VU meters and get's the sound through my speakers nicely, but I do have one particular problem. When listening to...

    Sony CDP-690 CD Player

    I just nabbed a Sony CPD-690 CD Player from Goodwill for $7.30. Plugged it in, and, unfortunately there is an issue. The CD tray won't stay closed. Soon as I gave it power, the tray opens. When I close the tray, it stays closed for a few seconds and opens right back up. Putting in a CD does...

    Setting Voltages on Sony TA-1120A

    I am in the process of restoring a very nice Sony TA-1120A integrated amp, and I have questions about the procedure for setting the AC bias current. I'm comfortable setting bias on amps where values and test points are clearly stated. However, the instructions in the service manual require the...

    Just picked up a Sony TA-E77ESD preamp, and left channel not working?

    Hey everybody, I've wanted to get into the vintage 2 channel game for a long time to see what I've been missing (I've always used modern AV receivers) and I found a Sony TA-E77ESD for a decent price at a pawn shop yesterday. I'm a huge Sony fan and love ES gear, so I was excited. Unfortunately...

    Sony STR-VX5 power supply trouble in paradise

    I was given a dead Sony STR-VX5 receiver, which I take to be a reasonable unit; thought I would fix it up and send it down the road to some deserving soul ... I'm not familiar with this unit at all, it has the "Legato linear circuit" and "pulse power supply" ... and, of course, I have no...

    Sony STR-2800 Two Blown Fuses

    Hi everyone. My Sony STR-2800 has blown two 4AT fuses (F803 & 804). I wasn't there to witness it, so it's hard to say how exactly it happened and whether someone maxed out the volume knob or something. It powers on, but there's no signal coming through the speakers and headphones outputs. A few...

    Mint Sony PS-3000 turntable, SS-3300 speakers, components, what are they worth?

    Anyone heard a Sony ST-S3000(ES)?

    I see a clean one on the German auction site that looks pretty nice if pricey. It has just about the same form factor and general styling as my HAP-S1 so they might make a tidy stack together. I checked the Sony specs against my ST-SA5ES and they are pretty close, the major differences are a...

    Hey, how's everyone doing? I got a Sony TC-500 from a friend about a year and some back, everything works as it should except... Something burns whenever I connect the line out.
