    HELP! Can't set BIAS on Kenwood KA-3500

    Greetings fellow Ak'ers! This puzzle has me stumped - any good puzzle solvers out there wanna try it? I have rebuilt a Kenwood KA-3500 amp with a full recap, many transistors, resistors and diodes, and new Bournes trimmers, too. This is my 12th recap of this model, but I'm stumped. The Left...

    I'm replacing the trimpots in a vintage (1970's) receiver and I've ordered standard Bourns trimmer resistors, but the new pots have 5mm lead spacing whereas the old ones have 7mm or 7.5mm, so the PCB has the wider-spaced holes.

    Recapping, Rebuilding, Restoring, Rest-o-modding... a Pioneer SX-450 receiver

    Well, AK'ers, I owe many of you a big round of thanks. I've finished my first complete restoration, it was a SX-450, and most of what I did was a result of you all asking each other questions, answering them, and leaving pointers to more info. You guys rock! Thank you! It sounds terrific (with...
