I replaced the dead b110 woofers and had been using them however the quality seemed to be off and finally got to me.

    Question on 1959 Crown SXA tube amp power supply, switching noise from half wave rectifiers?? 120hz hum.

    So I got this amp in a trade deal a few weeks ago, and after one issue of basically building it back from scratch, from a blurry schematic from 1960, I still am getting some 120hz hum when the unit is idling, with the inputs shorted. I just replaced the selenium rectifier, and that seemed to...

    Studiomaster Mixdown Classic 8 Console Problem

    Hi! I've been working on a Studiomaster Mixdown Classic 8. I opened it up to make sure the levels were selected properly (i.e. balanced +4 dBu).

    today's Misguided Tour

    Long story short, I went to a mid-high end audio shop today to do some R2R troubleshooting (wanted to confirm it's the tape and not my deck, which we did.) Though it's not a vintage store, the owner is a tape head and they have several (mostly functioning) reel to reels, including some studio...

    Connecting Two JBL Subwoofers and Two Studio Monitors to Focusrite Amp

    I have two JBL Studio Monitor MKII and two JBL LSR310S. Hooking it in was a-lot less confusing than I had made it in my head. I separated the sub and the monitors. I plugged the right Studio monitor in to the right subwoofer via XLR cable (Balanced) and then from the right subwoofer I used a TRS...

    Is it OK to use a broken audio adapter with exposed metal?

    Hi: I recently purchased a 3.5mm stereo jack to 1/4" stereo plug adapter online (cheap quality). Unfortunately, it arrived damaged to the point that the protective plastic had all broken off. Long story short, I was able to get my money back and was also allowed to keep the damaged item. I am...

    Fisher Studio DD-300 Cassette Deck

    I've been refurbishing my DD300 deck and I am just about done. The overall condition was fair and it was working OK up to a few weeks ago. I ended up taking it apart and replacing the caps for the power supply filtering. I found two leaking caps there. Basic clean and lube, dioxit the pots...

    What's with vintage headphones?

    Guys, I really need an opinion here. Anyone's two cents would seriously be extremely helpful because I don't have the best experience with any of this and really anything would be helpful! So, here it goes: I've had a very bad experience with buying professional headphones from the 1970's and...
