    I'm pretty well finished in building my systems, and anything that I might want is not likely going to show up at a thrift store. I've had hundreds of pieces of gear during the hey days of vintage audio. For a while, it was a desert out there! Especially considering the things I have found in...

    Zenith Console MD919P

    My Zenith console has a problem where 1 or 2 of the speakers crackle / cut in and out when I adjust the volume. Is this a problem with the speakers or the volume control? Everything else works great but as it is now it’s unusable. Can the volume control be cleaned? Can the speakers be replaced...

    Vintage Speakers £500?

    Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well! I'm on the hunt for some vintage speakers and thought I'd reach out for some friendly advice. I've been after some KEF reference 103/3's, but they're getting few and far between. Love their look, that bass driver, the fact they aren't rear ported...

    Got a pair of free JBL Pro 4301s from my friend's mom

    They're definitely going to need some work. the right one doesn't even half a positive connection knob, and is missing a tuner, among other issues. Both of them have foam that's falling out, and I suspect it won't sound the best when I turn the left one on. My dad and I plan on taking them to a...
