    Restoring Technics SE-9600

    Currently in the process of fixing a few problems with my SE-9600. I've ordered a few lamps for the Power Meter, and I'd like to fix the speaker terminals. Back in the day, when I was much younger, the original speaker terminal back plate cracked, so I used a piece of thin metal to mount new...

    I posted a few weeks ago about my SP10, followed the advice about cleaning switches, but the problem persists. The table turns on but does not spin. It rocks back and forth as if it’s stuck. Seems like a problem with the electromagnet. Has anyone here had any experience with these older direct...

    Best Vintage Integrated Amplifier Recommendations?

    Hello all, my current daily driver is a Hitachi SR 603 (30wpc) receiver which I like a lot because of the late 70s clean, accurate, and crisp sound. Though 30wpc is plenty for my Dynacos, I've been looking to upgrade to a more powerful integrated amplifier as I plan to purchase some floor...

    Turntable Blues

    My Technics SL-D35 seems to be under the weather. 1. The tone arm doesn't clear the album when it reaches the end, skating across it to get back home. 2. The pitch won't stay in place, so albums often speed up or slow down. 3. The platter seems to be moving up and down too much. No, I don't...

    Technics SL-1300 - missing nodule for counterweight threading

    Usually, a standard S arm has a tiny plate fitted at it's end featuring a protruding nodule that catches the spiral groove inside a counterweight. This facilitates the linear motion of the counterweight as it's rotated either clockwise or anti-clockwise. However, I have two Technics SL-1300 arms...
