Hey from Kansas, I really enjoy the tandberg repair videos. I have several components and the local tech refuse to work on them. That makes your vid a God send for me keeping mine playing.
Hello Kansas. Thank you very much for your feedback. Happy to know that you’re able to bring life back to your components from watching my videos. I will post more repair and service videos of Tandberg units.
Awesome repair! I have my Tandberg in the repair shop now. First time I plugged it in about 30 seconds bit of a hum another 30 seconds or so later a loud pop and blueish smoke pouring out the top vent! I had a look inside and can not see any damage to the components except for a slightly charred capacitor on the transformer. Looks like a aluminium foil is wrapped round it so I don't know what type it is either. I have limited knowledge on amplifiers :) anyway the repair shop says they fixed the amplifier but the tuner, which I know didn't work anyway when I got it needed some gear mechanism changing as it had broken! I am so looking forward to getting it back, I just hope the repair shop is as good as you :) I'll give you an update when I get it back and let you know what needed doing because the smoke tells me it probably needed at least those 2 big capacitors you replaced in your receiver and maybe a few other components.
Thank you for your comment and compliment. My biggest fear is to hear the pop and see the greyblue smoke when powering up an amplifier. It happens sometimes that this big hum appears when power up an amplifier I just got on my table, but then I power off at once and start searching for errors. I wish you luck regarding your amplifier and hopefully not too many components need to be replaced. And yes please, keep me updated about your Tandberg. Always fun to know.
@@anatticinnorway2883 Well a bit of an update, the amp is now working so I expect it was the big capacitors not sure yet but the main problem now is apparently there is a gearbox on the tuner which is broken and is going to cost £200 to repair! I told them to carry on with the repair and am now waiting for it to be finished 🤩 When I get it back, probably next week I will give you a full run down of what work was actually carried out.
How great your amp is working again. £200 for the repair of the gear of the tuner? Wow! I’m not charging enough for the repairs I do 😂. May I ask what Tandberg you have? And if it is the tuner for FM or AM? Yes please keep me updated. This is cool to follow.
@@anatticinnorway2883 It's the TR 2060 L and is a tuner and amplifier combined, this one has FM MW and LW. I thought £200 was a good price after researching the insides of it. Seems there is a mechanical gear box on the tuner which turn pots, sounds very complicated to me :) and the volume control is massive!!! ? You people are like gold though! Not even sure if young folk these days know how to fix these amazing machines with all the throw away rubbish they make now. I am so interested in electronics but can only follow it so far, I only recently found out bumble bee capacitors are actually capacitors and would really like to know how you can tell the difference between a bumble bee capacitor and a resistor as they look the same to me and I have tried googling it too! : Might be a very interesting video you could put that in maybe :)
Thank you very much for these kind words. I do this as a hobby and to kinda show it’s possible to bring back old Hifi to life. In regards to your gear for the tuner, it’s not necessarily wrong price. It’s a big job. For your radio both AM and FM is at same axis and the problem is usually for the AM adjustable capacitor. You need to bring it all out of the casing, clean it and lubricate it, and at the same time make sure the display wires will not get out of order. It’s only me be to kind after fixing these gears. When in comes to these bumblebee capacitors. They are called that because of the colour stripes, just like a bumblebee. And I agree is difficult to see the difference from those and a resistor. But when already mounted at the PCB you easily see the difference. The capacitor is marked C and the number, while resistors is marked R and the number
Hello and thank you for your questions. I will first answer if there is an easy way to upgrade to DAB+ for Huldra and Sølvsuper. Well.. kinda yes, and kinda no. The alternative is to get a DAB+ you can connect to a Tape input. In regards to why Huldra 10 and Sølvsuper 12 makes noice or why not giving high good sound is mainly because lack of service. A good clean of potentiometers and switches will remove lots of noice. If still noicy I would check if there were oscillating transistors. One reason there are no high good sound, can be the capasitors at the output for the power amplifier. A replacement of these and a general adjustment will probably bring back the good Tandberg sound. Happy hunting.
Hei. Tusen takk for kommentaren og komplimentet. Når det gjelder platespillere, så snakker vi to forskjellige nivå jord. Det er signaljord og chassisjord. Jeg antar at du bruker en platespiller med RCA og overgang til DIN. Der er signaljord ivaretatt, men trolig ikke chassisjord. Det du kan gjøre, er å forlenge den tynne jordingsledningen og feste den til en skrue i plata under forsterkeren. Alle aluminiumsdeler på Huldra 10 er koblet til chassisjord. Lykke til.
Aha. Akkurat gått fra TR1010 til Huldra 10. Trudde det skulle være en egen designert skrue for jord, slik som på TR 1010. Hadde også hørt DIN ikke trenger jord. Så kunne ikke skjønne hvorfor det kom så mye støy. Men, da skjønner jeg hvorfor. Takk så mye! 🥰
Alltid hyggelig å hjelpe. TR 1010 har RCA i tillegg til DIN, så den har jordingsskrue pga RCA. Det er helt riktig at DIN ikke trenger ekstra jord, for der er signaljord i pinne 3 og chassisjord i kappa.
Hei igjen. Tar du også på deg oppdrag på gamle Tandberg forsterkere som trenger en overhaling? Har en litt sliten huldra 10 og tr 1010 som begge kunne trengt seg en overhaling. Mvh Daniel

An easy fix!. It does help when you have the knowledge and don't waffle on like our north american cousins.

Can you tell why Huldra 10 or Sølvsuper 12 make noice or why its not give high good sound? its possible easy or hard way to upgrade to dab+?

Hei. Vet du åssen man setter på jording fra lp spiller på huldra 10? meget lærerik youtube kanal : )
