Hi to all,
I have a Hi Fi vox portable record player of 1962 vintage, it has a garrard deck, 4 speeds and is generally in fair order.
The problem is little or no sound, it has a solid state rectifier which is retuning 245v DC output and this appears to be correct from a article I have just read. I have replaced a new cable from the arm to the tag board this has 4 wires 2 x screen and 2 x signal but the cartridge has only 2 pins so I have used 1 x screen and 1 x signal. I have also replaced the valve (ECL86) which illuminates much better than the old one but I still have no sound, does any one have a circuit diagram for better component recognition of this or similar or any ideas of where I go from here.........much appreciated thanks.
