Hello all,
I recently was given (yay family!) a Nikko Beta II preamp with a channel dropping in and out. Searching the boards here led me to the speaker output relay and sure enough, if I lightly tap it with a plastic pen, etc. the amp works great for a while before cutting out again. More searching on here gave me the confidence to successfully desolder the relay, but I cannot seem to find ANY info on what I can replace it with! It is a reed relay, with 4 inline pins on one end and 2 on the other (DPST). The ONLY markings on the whole darn thing are "NEC" and "URT-103" "78-6". I cannot find anything that even remotely resembles this on Digikey, Mouser, Google, etc. Does anyone have any experience with these or any other advice? Thanks in advance, I have a feeling this is going to be a great preamp, if I can get it working!
