    Sony Turtable Leveling Problems?

    My uncle gave me a Sony PS-LX33 turntable about six months ago. It was working great for a couple months and then I started to have some issues. I've been taking it back and forth to my local record store and the owner has worked on it and tried his best to help me figure it out. In fact, it...

    Ariston Acoustics Image problem

    I offered to repair the mid/bass driver in a friend's Ariston Acoustics Image speaker. She noticed a lot of distortion coming from one speaker and, upon removing the grill it looks like the cone took a hit that ripped the rubber surround. My friend blames her rowdy nieces for the damage but good...

    New/Old Kappa 7's sound horrible

    Last weekend I picked up an expertly refurbished pair of Infinity Kappa 7's. Midrange drivers had been upgraded/recovered by the only guy on earth that still does them and the woofers were reconned by the original designer of the woofer. The seller was great and said he took great care pulling...

    Very strange speaker identification

    Found this thing today for $12 at a place that cleans out estates. Naturally I was intrigued as soon as I saw that it was a speaker. I bought it, and it turned out to have a single late 50s Jensen P8RX speaker in it. As for identifiers, it has a full make/model/serial plate on the back -...

    Welcome Me to the "Score" Club

    Every now and then I step into the EZ Pawn store about four miles away from my house just to see what audio/electronic-related merchandise is available. Yesterday, I stopped by and observed a pair of speakers that happened to be manufactured not too much earlier than the KLH 9250Bs I've used...

    Altec 3000G tweeters

    A steal in San Diego!

    So, I'm a huge fan of Sony's higher end lines of APM speakers. I constantly monitor local Craig's and EBay for listings. About a week ago I saw a post for a pair of Sony APM 33W speakers on EBay for $100. They will not ship so, being in NJ, I'm left out. These speakers will require...

    Hey all, The 4270 I have in the living room has always popped when I turn it on or off through the speakers. I have read threads about dc voltage and such, and I have recapped the filter caps, power supply board and all 4 amps. I have adjusted both the power supply and the amp boards to the...

    Dahlquist DQ-20 : So THIS is why they make big amps!

    I had picked up a pair of Dahlquist DQ8s a few weeks ago to figure out what was up with the cultish following the brand had. To be frank, I wasn't super impressed. They were good speakers, but they were ugly as sin and not particularly better than any number of $100-$200 used speakers I'd gotten...

    Allison Model Nine (early bi-amp version)

    Hi all, I've had a very busy few weeks. I acquired a pair of Allison Model Nine (the original bi-amp version) recently. The subs are pretty gnarly, but I think they can be salvaged. The tweeters are good and the mids are good (although one is dented, it isn't effecting performance). I play...

    Boston Acoustic A150 series 1 replacement midrange

    hi all, I recently picked up a pair of BA A150s series 1 in real oak. They are phenomenal, but one of them has a dead midrange. I tested the mid in the other, correctly working speaker and it's still dead, so it's not the xover. I see a lot of replacement mids on eBay for $25 that look...

    Hey y'all, the other day I put in a new system in my truck. For some reason, it sounds like one of my 4x6's is making some weird sounds when I crank up the volume. It sounds like it's making a buzzing noise and is distorted at high volumes; almost like it can't handle highs. I would like to...
