I'm hoping I can garner some attention on my 1060. I picked this up knowing that it could possibly have issues. The most obvious being a cut power cord. I took it home applied some dioxin, spliced in a power cord, attached speakers, and powered it up.
The interesting part was the speakers start cracking/popping even before powering it up. I went ahead an powered up the 1060 and the popping/cracking persisted. Played an LP and the cracking/popping subsided in the right channel but was evident in the left. The music itself sounded pretty good.
One issue probably related is when I power it off the 1060 takes its time to power down like letting air out of a tire. It takes about 30 seconds before you can no longer hear music from speakers after turning off.
Hoping there might be something obvious going on. I would like to recap this gem but if there is something i could focus on immediately i can do that.
I've attached some photos. I don't think they will show much other than the condition of the 1060 perhaps and if i'm dealing with an early or late. I'm guessing late because of the serial number.
