    Onkyo DX-C390's are Awful

    Onkyo's 6-cd disc changers are abysmal to work on. Not only ideologically abysmal to see when I sit down at my bench, but a pain to remove parts out of, and a pain to start troubleshooting.

    Has anyone had any luck actually fixing these things or do you just get rid of them? Because that's how I've been treating them unless I'm removing a jammed disc. They're just so primitive and terrible all around. Cheap enough to not order parts for but the parts themselves are so cheap. Feels like a waste of time.

    Listening to Drab Majesty, Chime, Deftones, and other Rushdown Label artists. Professional tech.

    PS5 Disc Not Supported/ Disc Not Recognized Board Num: EDM-020
    by Junior††


    Good Afternoon fellas,

    Issue:
    Disc is showing as not supported when a disc is put in.

    Here's what I've done, you can skip this if you just wanna know the question:
    - replaced with a disc drive from a donor ps5 (honestly questionable if this is known to work)
    - reflowed the disc drive connector
    -reflowed the chip in question (shown on image)
    - I will say this console was very dusty so it's conceivable that it got so hot that it made the chip joints cold and potentially other things on the board

    Question:
    I...

    Onkyo DX-V500 Laser Disc Player - weird SMPS fault
    by dkneyle
    This relic from a technology path that came to a dead end (but still has historical interest) was brought in with a dead SMPS, which is based around a MK1210 device. I got it going after a battle. It seems to have a strange design - if it's not getting feedback that the secondary is OK it cause the big FET to go into full conduction and overloads resulting in a blown fuse at best or something worse! I'm using a Dim Bulb Tester (70W/230V) which thankfully has saved the day a number of times whilst repairing.

    Now, it loads a CD OK. The motor voltage output (which is built onto the SMPS...

    Running out of Ideas, hoping someone smart can provide some for my ONKYO TX-SR353 Receiver
    by CDNBrewer
    Hello Everyone,

    I have an Onkyo TX-SR353 Audio/Video Receiver (5.1 ch with HDMI) that I am having a really hard time diagnosing and I'm about to throw this in the junk and go buy a new unit that is on sale until the 7th.

    Symptoms:
    • Intermittent (part of the reason why i'm having a hard time isolating problem), sometimes will work for 10+h at a time without issue
    • Original symptom was wife reported loud banging noise (like someone was banging on the wall with their fists) from the LEFT SURROUND speaker and then the unit shut off.
    • I swapped the Left and Right surround
