    X-101-C Phono Section Is Squealing Badly

    It worked perfectly fine last night for the hour that I was using it. Today it is passing no audio from the turntable from either phono 1 or 2. It is only making that awful noise. The first thing I did was swapped out the tubes with a good set. It made no difference. The other channels still...

    X-101-C McShane kit electronic restoration

    I purchased the kit a few months ago, and now I’m getting started. This is the biggest job I’ve yet attempted, and can use the resident experts’ assistance here. I’ll be moving slow, because I love this machine and want to avoid mistakes. It’s the best sounding piece of equipment that I have...

    Modifying the University Medallion XII Presence switch

    I presently keep the presence switch in "normal" position; because, it fatigues my ears very quickly when engaged. It's overkill to me. However, I would like to dial in a lighter amount of those frequencies for listening to more modern music styles (80's and on pop/rock)...Electric guitars...

    Empire 3000 me/x

    I bought a Pioneer PL-51 yesterday that came equipped with the Empire cartridge. I don't know much about it and haven't turned up much info searching around. It came with a Shure stylus installed that I'm sure doesn't belong with the cart. Opinions? Are there good aftermarket styli available...

    ELAC Miracord 10

    I've had it for a few months. Upon bringing it home, I found that the stylus wouldn't track in a record's grooves. Today I finally removed the changer from the console. I cleaned and added new grease in the appropriate places, and reinstalled. After that, it would play until getting close to...

    University Medallion XII - guidance requested

    I recently brought home a pair of these in nice cosmetic condition. Everything works although the controls are very dirty. I wish to rebuild the Xovers, but I haven't been able to find anything in a web search that offers more than a review of them. I want to get started. But, before I get...

    3l3ctron's SX-1250 restoration

    First, I'd like to thank everyone who has already shared so much information here. It's from reading and rereading all of the other restoration/repair threads that I've come to believe I can do this. I have a little bit of electronics experience, but I've never done anything this extensive...

    5025b stereo cassette deck - questions

    I scored this deck for $20 a week ago. Last night I installed the new belt kit I received in the mail from www.vintage-electronics.net. It played and sounded good after a quick test. Next up I want to replace the burned out meter and cassette lamps. The service manual clearly states...

    2015

    I bought this cheap at a garage sale 1 1/2 years ago. The guy who sold it to me said that it didn't work. It sat in my garage ever since until last week. At that time I tested all of the functions. Everything works except all of the lamps were burned out. I replaced them last night...

    BoomCase A-Team Van Speaker

    :rockon::zoom: We love it when a plan comes together. The audio experts at BoomCase had a pretty awesome one when they decided to take this vintage A-Team van figurine and transform it into this sweet speaker equipped with 50watts of power, one 2-way 5.25" speaker + a dome tweeter for stereo...

    New JJ 7591S

    Bought from a popular online auction site - new and "tested." Red plate within a few hours of being installed into my Scott LK-72. I read that these aren't well regarded for being prone to failure. Here's iPhone photo proof after just a couple minutes powered up.
