    Any AVID speaker fans here?

    Quality speakers. Like ADS. Heard some about a week ago. Very good tweeter. They used polyester film capacitors in the crossovers so they don't drift. Tweeters are fused so if one isn't working good chance it is just the fuse. 103 has good bass. Would love to find a pair and redo the crossovers...

    B&W Matrix 801 Series 2 enter the lab and get the Van Alstine treatment

    Crossover today with new inductors, metallized teflon bypass caps and mills wirewound resistors. The inductor upgrade was remarkable. My 75WPC Allens can drive the big B&W's with serious authority. :beerchug:

    Did Sony make any good '70s-'80s speaker?

    1984 APM-22ES Accurate Pistonic Motion. Square woofer and film tweeter. After a recap mine sound VERY good, especially with a Magnavox tube amp. Rubber surround so no rot like the bigger APM versions. http://www.thevintageknob.org/sony-APM-22ES.html

    Question about a resistor in Magnavox amp?

    You bet. I have the modified 9300 series schematic if you would like it.

    Question about a resistor in Magnavox amp?

    That's R112 and R212. They are in the left and right feedback circuits. Increasing the the resistance will decrease feedback which will increase gain. It will also increase distortion some, more as you approach full power output. Easy swap. Try higher resistance and see if you like it.

    ADS 710 - Restoration

    Lovely work. Replace the computer, polyester caps. Dayton or equivalent metalized polypropylene. The stock caps are certainly still in spec but modern manufactured ones are worth the investment. My 710's improved nicely with the Daytons.

    Line Array speaker ID needed

    That's what I was thinking. Is there a bass cabinet?

    Another Magnavox tube amp rig brings joy with thanks to Grainger49 and BigBill

    Thanks, CD. Once I saw how my friend got lost in the music at Grainger's, I knew I had to put together something he could enjoy at home. He has a neighbor that has listened to vinyl for many years and that neighbor came over and said he had never heard vinyl sound so real. :rockon:

    Magnavox 8802 upgrade suggestions?

    About $60 each.

    I bought a new tube amp!

    I think the chassis beside the main one is a phono preamp. The tuner circuitry should all be attached to the tuner frame (directly under the knobs and tuner scale.) Edit: On closer inspection I see tuning caps. Think it is part of the tuner and might have the phono eq circuit in it as well.
