A year or so ago I became aware of Kyocera gear. I was impressed enough to buy a reconditioned PL 701 turntable from a local AKer (jnoyes). I have loved the turntable, paired with a PrimaLuna tube amp and my Paradigm Signature 2 speakers (in my small study/listening room). I began to look around for some more Kyocera gear to feed my new hobby of vintage gear.
Last month I found a Kyocera A 910 integrated amp on the 'bay from a respected seller and was able to win the auction. Unfortunately the box, which showed no external damage, must have been dropped from a high spot somewhere. The amp looked okay externally except for a crack on the left wooden panel. When I hooked it up, there was no left channel and the right channel quickly went dead. I did not want to send this back to the seller since my chances of finding another 910 I could afford were slim and none. Fortunately I had become acquainted with local AKer and ace tech rbuckner. He agreed to take on the project to see if he could save the amp.
