    Calling All "Vintage" Integrated/Receiver Owners

    Well, after a few days playing my CR-820 side by side with my Sansui 881, I think I prefer the Yamaha. I prefer the controls, and the tuner is amazingly awesome. After zapping the antenna terminal with some deoxit and getting a decent antenna hooked up, I get good reception on stations I...

    Calling All "Vintage" Integrated/Receiver Owners

    Just picked up a Sansui 881 today off of Craigslist :) 40 dollars later, I am extremely happy with my purchase! have to run the controls through some Deoxit, but after that, it will be super amazing! It joins the growing family :D Right now there are a couple dings and a missing mic level knob...

    Post A Photograph Of Your Turntable

    Stock mdf platter! :) It didn't even look like mdf honestly. So slick. Ordered it off audiogon from someone there and it's like new. Thinking of getting a different mat for the platter though instead of the felt one that came with it. Any suggestions? Edit: can't begin to describe how much...

    Just got my Rega P1 in today :D Just got it set up and took some pictures!     Hoped to take some pictures to show the stylus position. I adjusted the weight as shown in the set-up guide, and set the bias adjustment slider to around 1.75 grams, since that appears to be the tracking...

    Advice for someone just getting into DIY (O2 DIY and cable fix)

    I didn't even do smaller first then larger, I went in a straight line down the board, then moved on to the next straight line down the board, and so on and so forth.

    I ordered the backorder parts through element 14 instead. Just search the part number through them instead :) also nwavguy addresses the backorder power plug in one of the pages' comments. Pm me if you have any issues I'll try and help! Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2

    Advice for someone just getting into DIY (O2 DIY and cable fix)

    Just wanted to post that I now have a working O2 amp! :D Words can't describe how pleased I am with myself that I actually built something electronic that works. I just sold my D5000s yesterday, so I don't have any REAL headphones to try this out with, but right now just basking in the...

    Calling All "Vintage" Integrated/Receiver Owners

    Just wanted to say, I wasn't trying to put down integrated amps as headphone amps, was just stating that if you were deciding between trying to mod an integrated amp (sacrilege!), it would be better to get a dedicated :P Personally, I tried my D5000s with my Yamaha CR820 and didn't like the...

    Denon Officially Announces Its New Headphones!

    I prefer the headband on the cheap model, and I prefer the cups on the expensive model :( I really don't like that white polished silver look.   I really dig that the cables are detachable though. Good move imho

    Calling All "Vintage" Integrated/Receiver Owners

    Generally paying anyone to do that kind of work gets expensive quickly, unless you have a friend who would know how to. I'd think a dedicated headphone amp would probably be better suited anyway, and leave the Sansui more for doing what it was intended for: driving speakers :) The 650s shouldn't...
