Re: What has gotten into me?
Dood,
A heads up on the Marantz.
Sees the 'stereo pilot lamp' used on those things is something special.
As in very low current.
People who sub in standard bulbs end up trashing the discrim chip in the receiver.
Got turned onto this issue from a DIY Audio bbs.
So show a care if you need to change that lamp.
I use a similar radio to keep the dogs quiet at the apartment.
We play the stereo to raise the backround sound, that way they don't bark at every little thing while the wife and I are out.
The old Marantz is just the ticket. For about the last four years it gets 10 hours a day of run time. It don't fail.
Be well there.

I'm starting to re-cap a Pioneer PL-X9 turntable, specifically the motor control board, because although everything tests out OK according to the service manual, the speed wavers slightly despite the quartz lock light remaining on. So, I've decided to re-cap that board since it's the cheapest next step...
Pioneer's passive component naming convention is clear to me. For example, CSZA R22M 35 is tantalum, radial leads, 0.22uF, 20%, 35V.
BUT there are two capacitors on the board which have actual Pioneer part numbers: PCL-042. I can tell they are 0.1uF, 16V but don't... -
First off I would like to thank this community as it has provided me with great information that has helped me greatly on my repair for this Marantz SR5012 AV receiver. I am creating this new thread as the other 2 that I have created here has had their original question/problem solved and I plan that this is the final thread on my repair. Please note that this is my first time repairing audio amplifiers so I may not be aware of common issues and things to know.
Lets start at what I have done so far. Random speaker popping on all channels is fixed by replacing the 2 large filter... -
Hi everyone,
I'm currently working on reviving a Yatour YT-M06 CD Changer Emulator module for use with a Pioneer 1 interface (specifically with a DEH-P5950IB head unit).
While the unit is recognized as a CD changer, none of the USB, SD, or AUX features respond, which leads me to believe the firmware may be corrupted or incompatible.
🔧 Details:- Model: YT-M06
- Interface: Pioneer 1
- MCU: Fujitsu MB89F202
- Goal: Find a valid .bin firmware file or memory dump from a working unit
I'm happy to attempt flashing, analyzing memory dumps, or doing hardware-level...07-15-2025, 12:26 AM -
I am not ashamed to say this is my first FM alignment I have ever done. I am well versed in electronics and repair. Been doing it for many years on Pro Audio Live sound equipment. Worked on Power amps EQ's musical gear and Large format Mixing Live consoles Etc. But now I can see this is a whole different world when it comes to tweaking this kind of gear. I do have the proper gear like the SENCORE SG 80 and HP Generators and Scopes Etc.
Look below at Adjustment 12:8. The Null adjustment. I have a Heathkit IM-28 VTVM that was rebuilt and has new Burned in tubes that I used for this...12-30-2024, 03:18 PM -
Hi,
I bought a used Marantz SR5007 and it's giving me some issues that I can't seem to really place. It functions well in most settings, ARC mostly works, it has no issues driving my speakers in any of the digital input modes, but I'm having issues running analog inputs in direct or pure direct mode. For some reason in this mode there's distortion for every volume increment I give it, but once the volume is stable it has no issues. Muting creates a loud pop, switching to another source also causes a pop and so does turning off the amp in that mode. Again, no issue in the digital modes....
