Sony DVP-NC650V DVD/SACD/CD/VCD Player: Review and Test
I test and review a Sony DVP-NC650V multi-format 5-disc carousel player from 2003, including a test of its audio performance, and a look inside, to find out how it stands up today, more than 20 years after it was made.

Discovering a Vintage Sony CDP-35 CD Player
Просмотров 12821 день назад
I test and look inside an early CD player, the Sony CDP-35, from 1986. Although it's nearly 40 years old, does it still work? Even if it doesn't, it only cost me $8.50 at a thrift store, so we're bound to get our money's worth out of trying it out and poking around inside!
Car Speakers For The Bookshelf?

With help from my cat, Scooter, I check out at a pair of car speakers I found at a thrift store that were set into home-built enclosures to form a pair of large bookshelf speakers. How are they constructed, and how do they actually sound?

I test and look inside a Panasonic DVD-RV32 DVD, which is a highly capable DVD and CD player from 2002. It can play a wide variety of video and audio formats, including DVD-Video, VCD (Video CD), and of course, CD-DA (Audio CD). It features a 192 kHz/24-bit audio D/A converter, and has a very low total harmonic distortion (THD) that is rated at 0.0025%, which makes it an audiophile-grade CD pla...

      Thanks for the comment. Although I play it daily, I've actually been living with the problems my Steinway upright has for about the past three years. That's why I haven't made the last next video in the series. I'm at the point where I either need to get going on fixing it or just pay a professional. Also, I've since discovered that mine is a Model I rather than a Model K. Those seem to be quite rare, though not necessarily more valuable than other similar Steinway uprights like yours.

    A 1986-vintage Sony CDP-35 is not likely to play a CD-R, even if it is working correctly. I was more surprised that it would not play a regular CD. Have you tried cleaning the laser lens yet? You might consider using a tripod for some of your camera work (or using a camera or lens with stabilization) to minimize the shakiness of a handheld camera or phone.

    • @SomeDisassemblyRequired
      @SomeDisassemblyRequired 10 дней назад

      Thanks for the suggestions. I haven't tried cleaning the lens but I may still try that. I agree on the shakiness, which I noticed myself. Although using a tripod doesn't fit into my shooting technique, I may buy a stabilizer, improve my camera technique, and/or try to reduce that via my video editor.

    Can you give me information about the sound box liters and the bass reflex port? please bro, the reason is that I have 4 speakers from a sounddock but without a sound box and I want to make a replica 🤔 I would be grateful if you could help me

    • @SomeDisassemblyRequired
      @SomeDisassemblyRequired 3 дня назад

      The box itself has a lot of complex curves, which are probably very important to the final sound. So, I don't think it's really practical for you to replicate that. However, you could just try making a simple box of some kind of about the same general size and see how it comes out. (In general, designing speaker enclosures is a very complex and specialized science that's difficult to do well without being an expert in it.)

    Do you know if it's possible to enable surround sound through optical. I have a old receiver hooked up to my computer hooked up to a projector and I'm trying to figure it out. Thinking it could be my sound card. I see a external sound card like yours has a optical drive can you play surround sound?

    • @SomeDisassemblyRequired
      @SomeDisassemblyRequired Месяц назад

      Optical audio links certainly can convey surround sound, so it's mainly a matter of the source outputting that format, and the receiver accepting it. There might be some configuration you have to do on either or both ends, or it might just magically work.

  • @OperationNorthwoods
    @OperationNorthwoods Месяц назад

    I have one of these that I purchased new, I believe it was 2007 or 2008. It has been a great receiver, however, I have noticed that the audio coming from it (regardless of input source) sounds "fuzzy." My front channel speakers are a pair of Bose 401 (I just replaced their caps), and I have a powered subwoofer as well as rear L and R speakers, so my setup is 5+1. I am concerned that its electrolytic caps (one or more) have gone bad. I have its service manual but it is difficult to read. Would you consider the repair of confirming and replacing the caps to be an "expert required" job? I cannot afford to buy a new receiver, thus my need to repair this one. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

    • @SomeDisassemblyRequired
      @SomeDisassemblyRequired Месяц назад

      It's probably not an 'expert required' job but just be sure to be safe by leaving it unplugged while you work on it (obviously). On modern electrolytic caps, they often bulge when they've gone bad, so look for that as a first step.

    • @OperationNorthwoods
      @OperationNorthwoods Месяц назад

      @@SomeDisassemblyRequired I decided against the repair, I just don't trust myself with those types of things anymore. I bought a Yamana RX-V679 from Marketplace on Fri. It is insanely complicated to set up the audio, absolutely ridiculous. It didn't include the mic to be used for auto-calibration. Seriously, I am going to have to hire someone to come hook it up, set it up, and teach me how to use it. I just want a simple to set up and use 5.1 receiver. <sigh>

    Have the same model. When in Error mode it wont heat, no matter how long you leave metal on it. Have to clear the error and then press one of the temperature buttons. It also only works with certain metals. It is possible that iron is a metal that would not work. Easiest way to know if it will work is hold a magnet up to your pan/metal, and if its magnetic, then it should work on that cooktop. When you put a non-magnetic metal on it it will show E1. Assuming it is working of course.

    This is a very good unit used as an audio transport. It does have a fairly good Burr Brown DAC chip but the analog output is not the best. That's no problem as you can just audio out digitally through the coax or optical and input into a modern stand alone DAC. Something like a Schiit Modi or the like at the $100 mark or cheaper 2nd hand. Great pick up!

So, I recommend you remove whatever parts you may be interested in, then test them individually.
