Great presentation! More details please. You could say that you fix everything in a flash while standing, but I know that to do it properly, you need a lot of time and patience. These are beautiful HiFi classics, renovated, they look beautiful in every home, and I have a lot of them and I spend the most time among my electronic "toys" and it will stay that way. Best regards👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I laughed while you were explaining how the controls work, you pulled of the treble knob, oops. It just looked humorous 😂

Have a Happy New Year 🇧🇷

Short your inputs

I’ve refurbished vintage stereo equipment for years since I was a kid my dad taught me he worked more with tubes than solid state units but learned from him I’m in my 50s now and I have a hard time letting go of vintage units like u are working on now may sound silly but I do when old vintage high end units I feel people won’t take care of them like I would so as u can imagine I have quite the collection people need to understand u can’t drive these low watt units like u can some of the higher watt units sometimes u blow fuses like the one here then u have to wonder what shape the speakers are in if u have hot spots on voice coils ect could be the cause to but anyway I love your channel easy to understand what your doing when diagnosing the equipment keep it up keep these units working and out of the landfill

Hey Joe was wondering where your location is?

It’s like going to class. Thanks for the videos.

Thank You Joe for another Great Video showing in Detail, pointing to WHERE to connect the probes to. Your camera work Is Much appreciated in these How To videos. I realize it takes four times as long to finish a task in doing so But.... So Helpful for a Newbie who's starting to Learn. Unlike many others showing how they repair sets just saying "I went ahead & checked the bias & set the adjustment for each channel according to specs." lol A video Is much more Enjoyable to watch when a viewer is learning something from it. Happy New Year To Ya & again Thank You.

Trés interraissant! merci!

I used to "simulate" STKs with success using discrete components back in 1990. First off, carefully break it, then using a metallurgical microscope to identify components, then make a copy of the internal pcb pattern. Used to love the way internal transistors looked like. Years later did the same thing trying to replace STRs using discrete components but to no avail.

8:46 taking it apart is alot easier than putting it back together . Vn

Thanks for what you do . ❤

I watched this video today only, very nicely explained and the very nice lay out too .WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR 2025 ,look forward to watch many more such videos from your turntable bench .

Hi Joe, Greetings from Australia I just wanted to thank you for your fantastic and informative videos. 👍 Please keep it up.

I have the Yamaha CR2020 which I purchased new in 1978. Eighteen months ago I had it completely recapped and gone over. Replaced bulbs with LED's. $900 later and she sings better than new at 110wpc. There are rebuild kits for these. This unit may sound 'good' but I guaranty there's some weak components in there that should be replaced.

Sir,im from India i have similar amplifier with power transistors blown i replaced them & set the bias. VU Meters are defective where can i get them.

Come on everyone click that subscribe button, this guy deserves it. 💪🏼

Happy New Year...

Happy New Year Joe! Always enjoy your videos....Cheers

Hi Joe from Sydney Australia. How do you identify and purchase the very small light globes for the front panel? 💡

Thanks Joe! Nice layout inside this receiver, clean and uncluttered. Sweet screwdriver too...👍

Happy New Year Joe ! Glad to follow you ! ❤ From Québec !

Nice job Joe. I have 610 waiting here too. Have a Happy New Year bud

Bonne année 2025 🎉

My new favorite tech!

Joe, just noticed in the video that it appears that the unit you are working on has the B style board as I see a red and white lead from the capacitor 8 going to the middle of the board. Interesting.

Hi Joe, maybe you can help me as I can find no other persons or information on the net than answer my question. I have an SX828 with a bad power board AWR010 B, I purchased a replacement on Ebay which upon receipt showed it to be AWR010 A. The B style board (the original) has a terminal post 24 which has a red and white lead coming from capacitor 8. The A Style board does not have a terminal post 24. The service manual and addendums make no mention of different board options. Matter of fact the service manual shows style A with the red and white lead from capacitor 8 going to terminal post 9 on the board. I would assume I could just wire as shown in the service manual and be okay but I don't understand the difference between the two boards and if using the A board instead of a B board will damage the unit. Love the channel and hope you will be around for a very long time. Thanks.

Was that a type of diode grease?

I like you very thorough

What is the reason for replacing the output transistors of the working channel? I worked as a service technician for 10 years but have never seen this. In my opinion, this is unnecessary and only adds extra costs to the customer.

When you made the speed adjustment toward the end of the video, did you do anything other than adjusting the pitch pots? Wasn't sure if you made a VR adjustment or not.

Yes it is definately worth the change i always keep 50 on hand.

Bonne et heureuse année à vous et votre famille. Merci pour vos videos toujours instructives 🙏

Hi Joe, I want to thank you for showing us how to fix this fault in the Bose wave music system : my 20-plus year-old system was behaving exactly as your sister's. New capacitors - it was the 22microfarad ones that had failed - and I can now play my CDs again. Great!

Pioneer is known to make their stuff to last decades

I also have a CR-2020 that I purchased new in 1979. If you would consider repairing (I do not have tech / electronic knowledge or equip) I would like to connect w/ you. Please let me know how - I was unable to view e*mail link on subscriber page. Thank You, D.K.

Love the turntable

I have a humming when I turn to phono output. No phono attached. Any ideas?

NEED HELP Mines is going to protection right away. please help thanks

Should you not mod the caps to be further away from those resistors? Can you not up the wattage on those resistors to take more heat?

I have repaired the same model.. the tone board resistors got hot due to higher voltage which affects the board i guess

Nice! I always pick up nice nuggets of knowledge.

Always enjoy your very informative repairs. Concise explanations a bonus Thank you Mak Pakistan

I had this amp as a starter when I was 20. Had a Dual turntable and Advent speakers with a nakamichi cassette. It made NOISE It also played vinyl perfect that dual. was the best turntable I ever owned.

Thank you for pronouncing it correctly. It is not pronounced Teck-Nicks

very nice work joe. i ve seen your videos lately and has been a pkeasure to watch them thank you for all the details .

Came across the channel by chance. Oot not out. Is he Canadian? Yes! Good repair

I repair various electronics,, was never much of an audio guy until was was asked to do a total upgrade on a Marantz 2270. Since then, I've been asked to repair a few receivers. Sometimes I am successful & sometimes not as I am still learning audio devices. I discovered your channel while researching audio repair & really enjoy watching you do repairs. Currently I am trying to repair a Pioneer VSX-40, a horror to disassemble. It was not powering on. I found the front right channel was blown, replaced both transistors and 4 bad resistors. It powered on & I thought I was home free. Nope. No audio. I'm still trying to find that fault, I suspect it may be the 80 pin audio IC & am waiting for a replacement to arrive. I saw someone do a video with a similar receiver, similar fault and it was a bad audio IC. I tried putting a signal into the IC but didn't get an output. BTW I was able to purchase that power switch for $10 last year. It's a little bit more now & I'm not sure about shipping costs to your location, but this is the link : www.ebay.com/itm/125965051636 ☘Happy New Year☘

Another good job in Joe's shop.
