    Marantz 2270 and the loudness button

    I have a Marantz 2270, 2230, and 2220b and I enjoy listening to music with the bass mid and treble up quite a bit (2PM) and the loudness pressed in. From everything I read and what people say I feel guilty doing this and feel like I'm going to "Fry" something in the receivers. Is this true? Does...

    Proton AP-1000 volume related issues

    Hello everyone. I have a very nice proton preamp but lately it has been showing a very annoying problem. Every now and then, out of nowhere, the volume opens up to a very, very high level and after a second or two it pops back to normal. I've checked the volume pot (it is a alps 10kbx2) and...

    JCPenney turntable

    I just bought a MCS belt drive turntable at Good Will for $4.00 ... brought it home and it needed to have the belt repositioned, as it had fallen loose. A simple maneuver. All functions seem good. The lid is in decent shape, and the mat, and the stylus. It's a little dusty, but not bad. I did...

    Marantz 1200 volume issue

    Hey guys, So I just finished a 1200b and noticed that I still have audio out of both channels when the volume is at zero. At first i figured a bad pot but out of curiosity I plugged in a 1200 I'm getting ready to start and it has the same problem. Even when the gain switch is on low I have audio...

    1070 unbalanced volume

    Hey All, I have a 1070 that I have recapped the power amp, pre-amp/tone and power supply. I am able to adjust the DC offset and bias to spec of 0mv and 10mv and they hold steady for both channels. My problem is the left channel is noticeably louder a brighter than the right. I have listened...

    Transistor cross reference

    Hey all, Think I might have a couple of pre amp drivers that need replacing and was wondering if anyone had the proper replacement part # for a 2SC1328 and a 2SA763. I found an NTE number (199/234) but it seems that the forum does not like NTE parts and I rely on the experience provided here...

    2015 trying to bring it back, some help please.

    Hey All, While the 2265B is waiting for a relay and filter caps, I decided to open up a 2015 that is waiting. This unit is in pretty nasty shape. The bass and selector were pretty much frozen in place. I cleaned all the controls and managed to get the bass and selector moving freely again...

    sa 5270 technics Volume pot iffy

    Howdy, I have a SA-5270 Technics that has a iffy volume pot *Or so I think* The Volume knob works and does the job of turning up the volume but it sounds like it doesn't send juice to the left speaker channel. If I push on the knob real hard it has full volume with both speakers. Once I...

    Low decibel speakers

    While I'm waiting to get new drivers for my EPI's, I've been using a cair of bookshelf Pinnacles. While they sound pretty decent, they are way too efficient. I can't turn my volume up more than a quarter of the way and the signal rarely even registers on my VU metres. As such, I'm wondering two...

    2325 FM at 1/2 volume

    I'm working on a 2325 that has about 1/2 normal volume when on FM. The tuning meter does not work. The signal strength meter shows strong reception. The P200 IF board has been rebuilt and triple-checked for soldering/parts issues. It is not the P300 M MPX board as it has been swapped out for...

    Preamp after phono stage?

    Is there value in placing a preamp between the phono-preamp and my integrated amplifier? I’d like to boost the final volume level without increasing the gain on my phono stage. I use my Integra Surround Sound amplifier in “Stereo” mode which sends signal to my two main 4ohm speakers AND my...

    Sony STR-6055 hum and low volume problem

    Hi all, I recently picked up an STR-6055 to go along with my STR-V4. They are very different units, with the STR-V4 being much fuller sounding, with a tonal balance that decidedly leans toward the lower frequencies. It is a joy to listen to as the treble is actually quite detailed, while not...

    Not loud enough

    I just put a new cartridge in a Synphonic Solid State Record Player from the late 60's. The max volume is not loud at all. I would give it a 3 tops. What is my next step?? Thanks! Patty
