    TC1 - Multi Tester Tool ... A Handy Tool for Your Bench

    I always have a lot of skepticism for cheap tools and testers, especially from "over there", but this is one that for $22.00 I figured is worth a try. There have been plenty of videos on YT regarding its accuracy and versatility, all or most are positive on this thing. The tester has a color...

    Working on another WOPL Convert ... a couple questions, including Pioneer SA-9100 rebuild

    A good friend is getting his JBL L100A (I believe they're called Century studio monitors...they were a hot ticket in the '70s) elements rebuilt. I have been expressing the virtues of WOPLiing his PL400-II, full soup to nuts with Full Complimentary backplane. It looks like I will be taking this...

    Pioneer SX-780 Output Relay Quirkiness

    I was over at a friend's house the other day and while we were talking, his Pioneer SX-780 suddenly started playing. Startled me, as the power was turned on and no sound..I figured the volume was turned down. He said - oh yeah ... it does that. Sometimes when he turns it on, there is a few...

    New Dual 500 Top and Bottom Covers

    I mentioned these in the "Dual-500 King of the Hill" chat where my amp did not arrive with a top cover and the bottom cover was pretty well beat up. Using some pics of Glen's top cover, I went to a local fabrication shop and had several sets of tops&bottoms made up. They are laser-cut from...

    Picked Up a Pair of ADS L1230 ... Curious about the Bi-Amp "Option"

    I've been amassing a bunch of speakers over the past several years, Ortofon 445, 335, ADS L990, L9e, L620, and now L1230. Yes, I have a problem, but I have come to appreciate how the WOPL 400-II sounds SO DAMN GOOD, no matter what I throw at it. Pretty much all speakers have needed some kind...

    Tektronix Oscilloscope Front Cover 2246 2245 TAS465/475, TDS350/360/420/460

    I ended up buying this cover by mistake for my 2265B 'scope several years ago and just found it while de-cluttering. Based on what a seller on ebay listed/sold one recently, it should fit the Tek models listed in the title. Inside dimensions: 12 7/8" W, 6 1/8" H, 1 3/4" D. Overall in good...

    FREE Weston 666 and Weston 660 VOM Manuals

    I just found these books while cleaning out some old storage boxes. They're like new, 30 pages each, with instructions, schematics and parts lists (etc.). PM me an address to send and whether you want either or both. Al

    FREE Vintage Panasonic SS-7000 Home Stereo System

    I have been in de-clutter mode most of this past year and really need to let this beauty go to someone in this group. I figure someone out here really apprecates this old stuff and while it is nothing SOTA for today, it still sounds just fine for someone with simpler needs. Hey...it might...

    Contemplating a Bottlehead Moreplay Tube Preamp for the WOPL 400-II

    Been a busy Summer clearing the yard between storms and getting things checked off the honey-do list, even got an occasional chance to listen to music. Now looking to line-up Fall/Winter projects indoor that include possibly getting a new DAC and/or trying a tube preamp to feed the WOPL 400-II...

    A new project to tinker with...PL P3600

    A while back, a friend was clearing out some old electronics and invited me over to take whatever I liked. Some crusty old cassette decks and other ‘70s crappy stuff....and a PL3600! According to the rear panel, this was the Jensen era stuff. Not nearly as well appointed as the prior...

    NAK 600 and Teac V-350C For Parts or Repair

    Hi Guys ... still cleaning out stuff that was on the "repair" queue. I've earned enough gray hairs to come to the conclusion if it is not making progress on the queue, time to toss it. Same deal as my other thread, since these are not working, I can't sell them in good conscious. If you...

    Removed Guts From An Early 1960's HiFi Console

    One of my neighbors had to clear the contents of his parents' house a few months back, never an easy task if you've ever had to do it. But one of the family "treasures" was a very long floor standing console that had a (West) German stereo system, tubes naturally, that my neighbor gutted for...

    Taking the Plunge Into the WOPL 400-II Pool

    I'm finally going to get through this rebuild attempt, figuring the 3rd time's a charm! A little background ... I bought this amp and the 2000-II new in 1980 (pic of receipt attached ... I actually found it while going through the accumulated paperwork - note the date!). They served me well for...

    Phase Linear Phan Introduction ... a few years overdue

    Hello all ... I guess my intro posting is a bit overdue, 8 years to the date when I created my account here. Better late than never, I guess! Back then I had convinced myself that I was going to finally repair the PL 400-II that I had bought new in '80 or '81; playing "DJ" at a loud party...
