The last time I remember having rain this late in the state was in 98. It rained so much in 97-98 while I was in Santa Cruz that I bought a dover (which I can't wear anymore) and three umbrellas (a large one and two small ones, lost a small one at pizza my heart). I was going to change the...

I took my time and this is the result (in an apartment with a balcony). I now think anyone can do it and it would be much easier in a garage/workspace. The cabinets, which were birch raw, were trashed and most of the corners smashed in. Using epoxy paste and lots of sanding, I made them...

Some guy brings me this subwoofer and asks me to repair it. I say, it's a new design no way will I be able to fix it but I told him I would look into it. So I open it up and for sure there are ICs everywhere but not only that some of the ICs have had their id numbers grounded (like with a...

This is so interesting to me especially since Klipsch themselves said they lost the mold (lie). I'm definitely going to buy a pair. Some people might want to upgrade their Cornwall III or rebuild those empty cabinets that I've been seeing lately.

I just took a CR-2020 all the way to the end of the volume control without clipping on an 8 ohm load and it read 122 watts. Is this unusual? I thought so, I mean it was recapped, all transistors were upgraded in the power supply and amp, voltages on the power supply were normal. I always...

This took me 20 minutes after I broke a bulb trying to remove it. I purchased these replacements really cheap: https://www.amazon.com/XT-AUTO-50pcs-Number-License/dp/B014V4R6O8

So I'm still up (don't ask) and I get this email from Kipsch about the new Forte III. Interested, I opened it up. Great special edition in colors I don't like for 2000 each. No info on the regular edition, I was wondering if pricing would be better. But behold, the specs are up. I know the...

So I purchased this mint 9900A about 6 years ago from the original owner. The reason for the sale was that the unit was not operational and I got it at a very good price. After doing some studying, I went into the power supply unit and quickly found the problem, a roasted 100uF capacitor...

I need to adjust the arm position but don't have the right kind of screwdriver (can't find one at any local hardware store). So I need to buy one online. Anyone have a recommended screwdriver that will fit in the hole and engage the potentiometer. Thanks, Fernando

I purchase these on a hunch: https://www.amazon.com/XT-AUTO-50pcs-Number-License/dp/B014V4R6O8 for my SX receivers and TX tuners and they work without modifying the circuit just like the ones offered on ebay but for a lot less. I bought the 50 pack and couldn't be happier. The color is...

Never posted this find so I'm posting for archival purposes. It's truly mint. Hardly been in the sun since the walnut still looks like new walnut. None of the screws have ever been touched. I'll enjoy it till it's gone. Enjoy.

I don't think we'll ever see these on CL or ebay here. Very rare and already one bid at around 30,000. http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u64608091 I definitely would like to hear a pair of GF-1

You hardly see these listed: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/ele/4244041923.html If I had a truck or SUV but I don't. Someone here should get these.

I'm in the process of recapping an SX 727 for a friend. While testing the outputs transistors, two of the NPN tested below spec (HFE of 26 and 27 when they are supposed to have a minimum HFE of 40). I am going to replace them and thought these would be a good sub: 863-MJ21193G pnp to-3 250v...

And with free shipping too: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sansui-TU9900-Tuner-/271263051717?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f2889afc5&nma=true&si=B3yKAcbFZh4OPG5qRYndKMhMKxg%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Nice bargain.

Has anyone used heat when trying to straighten bent shafts, like from a torch or even your stove? I know when trying to bend shafts back, unless it's a small bend, they break. I thought using heat and getting them to at least red hot may help in the straightening process. Anyone ever try...

These don't come up very often: http://page21.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/j210929954 and this ones a beaut and pictures were so well taken. I only see one flaw. I'm thinking this one will probably break the $4000 mark. We'll see. Definitely want one but it's car shopping for this...

I don't know if the bidders misread the listing and thought they were getting both pieces or if it's tax return season of high prices but I think that this is excessive: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261168464781?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 It's not even mint and no box...

I always see good deals like this and wonder if they are true: http://denver.craigslist.org/eld/3613668346.html If it was a guaranteed sale, I'd drive to Denver for that price. No affil and pic for when this sells.

If you follow this advice: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/ele/3610820172.html "The guy repeatedly posting the so called 'klipsch warnings' for potential sellers/buyers is a speaker dealer who is trying to hurt a rival speaker dealers business. I personally could care less about either one of...

I found their website while looking for Onkyo Septer 5001s, here: http://omiyadenka.co.jp/blog/hardoff/audio/ Hard Off has been the subject of many videos on youtube but those are focused mainly on anime or video games (how stereotypical, I would be looking at used records and audio gear)...

It's mint but it's not working. No lights, no click, nothing. How much would this be worth? For reference, a mint unit in working condition goes from $2000 to $2200 in the area. F.

Smooth transaction and the amp arrived safe and sound. Got a free Yamaha YP-D71 box for my Yamaha as a bonus. Fernando
