Anyone else?

Thanks for your response. I noticed that these are 4-pin. I would prefer to get some 2-pin caps if possible.

I recently traded a guy for a pair of Pioneer separates that he was using but had been in storage and unused for the last five years (SA-9500 II and TX-9500). They're both in need of a bit of cleaning up and refurbishing so I decided to get started in on the integrated first. I thought it...

Now it's time to stuff the cabinets with a couple of trusty Wal Mart pillows I picked up for $2.50 /each. They really fill up the cabinets and look similar in density to the original fiberglass damping material. I'll have to see how this will effect the bass response and I will adjust the...

I decided to make a slight change and put the caps below the bridge instead of tying them down to the top. This will help protect the crossover from the damping I will install. I then gasketed the openings and installed the crossovers and bridges................................ The...

Hmmmmm.............. I owned a pair and my Model 7B's tweeters were black.................

I got the cabinets masked off and put a couple of coats of Valspar Satin Black onto the baffle sides. I plan on reattaching the grilles with velcro patches so I'll put them on later. Here's a couple of photos of the painted baffles........................... Since the walnut cabinets are...

For for the hole layouts, I first attempted doing a clear plastic template like did for the Dayton Silkies where you layout the 3 original holes and then rotate the template 180 deg. for the other three. I didn't have some clear plastic at the time so I took another look at the back of the...

I relpaced the old 16uF caps with some I had on hand from an old speaker project using pairs of Bennic 10uf + Solen 6.2uF polypropylenes paralleled. The final caps both measured 16.02uF & 15.99uF respectively. The leads were short so I had to extend them a bit with some NTE 16 ga. solid copper...

Once I removed all the batting from the cabinets they still seemed to smell a bit so I sealed the cabinet's interior surfaces with a PVA glue solution. Now on to the crossovers.......... The orginal boards was set in hot glue so I scored around their perimeters with a knife & then used a...

My wife picked up a pair of EPI M250's cheap at a garage sale late last spring. When she finally brought them back home I found that the cabinets/ grilles were in very good shape. However, all 4 woofers were bad with either rotted surrounds and/ or the voice coils torn away from their...

Another Pair Done........... I finally finished the cabinets for these. The cabinets have 1-1/4" MDF front baffles & 3/4" MDF sides. The baffle was finished in Rustoleum truck bed liner and I used Rustoleum American Accents Textured Stone (Mineral Brown) for the cabinet. Both finishes were...

Here's the crossover....................

I pulled out one crossover today. It's a fairly complex one with 22 elements (5 hand wound inductors, 9 capacitors and 8 resistors. I plan to do a recap on both crossovers and rebuiild them onto some hardboard so I snapped a few pictures of the one I removed. It's got some pretty large, axial...

I was just "given" a pair of Walsh2's by a co-worker yesterday. I got them home and played them for a few minutes. The sound is very nice. Thanks for the pics too. Are the crossovers original or have you done a an upgrade yet?

I'm building a pair of Indignias for the wife. She wants something small to flank her HDTV (it's got crappy internal speakers). I'll pick up an inexpensive HT receiver to power them.

I've got a PM 700 DC integrated. 70WPC w/eq. Nice unit. Congrats on a great find!

Look at the asking price & the sellers ID! Are 2130's that rare?

I'll have to try some of that CircuitKleen. I've only used DeOxit on the pots so far. 2285B Progress Report: 1) Preliminary adjustment of bias and offset 2) Re-cap of power supply and main amp boards 3) Cleaned speaker relay contacts Today, I connected it up to my secondary system and...

I've got a Marantz 2285B receiver and a PM 700DC integrated.

Happy Birthday!!! Please add my name too.

The soap and water solution seems to cleen up the knobs/faceplate pretty well. I removed the top cover today to inspect the insides. It definitely has some accumulated dust on the trf, heat sinks and boards (will have to vacuum). Can I some type of non-volitle circuit board cleaner be used on...

What is the preferreded cleaning product for to use on the faceplate and knobs? I will be restoring my Marantz receiver soon and any advice would be appreciated. I don't want to damage the lettering on the faceplate.

I'm looking for a copy in PDF form. Thanks!

As an addendum to my previous post, the PM500 console amp puts out about 50W @ 8ohms and 70W @ 4ohms. The PM700 console amp puts out 70W @ 8ohms and 90W @ 4ohms. In addition, the PM700 has a dual 5-band eq (50, 200, 800, 3.2K & 12.8K +/- 10db). This unit can be rack mounted (RHA-8 Rack Adaptor...
