Home Audio Amplifier: Sony TA-V7 amplifer has no right channel output

Sun, 25 Jan 2026 21:53:24 -0700

Hello! I picked up a vintage amp that was having intermediate issues with the output on the right channel and now no audio will come out of that channel. I've tried switching the speaker wires and panning the audio all the way right but now no sound will come out at all. Any advice and help is appreciated!

Home Audio Amplifier: Crown Cdi 1000, both ch. signal LED’s jumping, no input audio, no out

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 21:55:59 -0700

I have a Cown CDi 1000 that’s has movement in the signal LEDs on both channels , it bounces from 1 green to two. The problem is that this happens when no signal is being applied and when you do send signal you get no audio nor do the LEDs react. Has anyone had this expierence? This is a dual channel issue, no faults. Any thought on where I should poke around? This CDi1000 is a 2009 model, I repaired the power supply, mainly the kick start area, the 48.7k resistors were pretty toasty, who ever had it before me did a number on C196 so that was replaced too. Could U14 cause this kind of issue?

Home Audio Amplifier: Sansui AU-X410R - no bias voltage on either channel. PIC incl.

Thu, 16 Oct 2025 23:06:36 -0700

Hi guys,

a little stumped with this one. I picked the amp up for next to nothing from a local charity shop. Fired it up via my dim bulb, and it worked, but only just. The output/volume is extremely low. I measured voltage across the emitter resistors, and I'm getting 0 on all 4 of them.

I have checked the power section, and the main rails, and I'm getting around 45v per rail, so that seems ok, Output transistors appear to be ok, and measure fine.

To complicate matters, I cannot find a service manual/schematic for this amp anywhere.

Any help, pointer, tips, would be much appreciated!

Thanks!!

Home Audio Amplifier: I have a Sansui 550 Classique amplifier -need help

Tue, 16 Sep 2025 03:48:21 -0700

My Sansui 550 Classique amp will not turn on, just humming sound and we have blown multiple fuses. Now even when replacing the fuse we get nothing.

We’ve checked the speaker wires. Receiver turns on. Amp shorts out after a crackle-hum sound.

any advice for repairing this?

Home Audio Amplifier: Adding an external audio input to this excellent boombox

Mon, 11 Aug 2025 11:17:41 -0700

The JVC RC-X610 boombox, like a lot of JVC audio equipment, is surprisingly good but it lacks an external audio input.

Even for an experienced electronic engineer the PCB's are undecipherable without a service manual and schematic.

I have found an very expensive copy of the service manual on eBay. Where do these sellers find their manuals I wonder?

Can anybody point me to a repository of JVC service manuals or specifically, one for the JVC RC-X610 ?

Hi, My pioneer VSX 819h went into protection mode. It now won’t enter service mode. I’m following the service manual. The only thing it does is turns on for 4-5 secs when pressing power button+adv-surround which according to the service manual is used for clearing the error counts. Thanks

Home Audio Amplifier: Denon PMA-757 Relay is not turning on

Fri, 25 Jul 2025 07:42:24 -0700

Hello,

I have a Denon PMA 757 and its power relay is not turning on. Therefore there is no power. All fuses are OK. My observations; 1) R301 is overheating 2) Transistors around R301 seems to be fine 3) All my measurements around R301 and transistors show +/- 50 V and this does not match some of the values indicated on Service Manual,

I would highly appreciate if someone can help me.

Thanks and best regards
