Hi, I have this receiver and have had since I bought it while in the Army in Germany back in 1974. I ran Boss 501's on it. My issue is after all these years, it has stopped working and I live in Ct and can not find all anyone to work/clean/service it. My question do you do this as a hobby or living. I really would like to find someone to fix it. Thanks for your time. Scott from Putnam Ct.

Just modest sugestion: speak slower....

Someone just gave me a CT-F750. Three belts were melted. Replaced them with what I had laying around for now. It works on some tapes but not others. It looks like the pinch rollers are a little worn out and if the tape has some resistance it slows way down. If you press up on the tape when it is slowing down it speeds back up. I need to track down some pinch rollers. I tried sanding it a little and put rubber renue on them and no luck. Glad I didn't pay for it.

I would return it for a refund if possible. I don't think it's the filter cap. My guess would be the pre-amp or output transistors. Was it sold as-is?

Interested to see how this turns out.

I got one from ebay about 10 years ago it was in good shape . The left channel wasn't working had it fixed and a few replaced and cleaned up i think it set me back about $280

Nifty idea on that cabinet.

Hilariously terrible video. Why not figure out what you're reviewing before turning your phone on? My 12 year olds could do better.

If you don't mind, I suggest you run a record also to see if speed is good. Thanks for the video!

I have a 2275 Marantz, i need to clean the face plate.Any suggestion on what to use ?

So your first video you got 0 ohm readings. Were the drivers dead? Did they need to be rebuilt? I'm about to pick up some 14s for 200$. I got mt meter with me to do some readings. Just wondering what the options are if the woofers are dead. Thanks.

This model Marantz vs a Kenwood Kr-10000 iii ? I have a kenwood thats been sitting here but when i went to set it up it didnt power on ...somewhat local guy said he can fix it but who knows what that's gonna cost me. Someone i know has a working Marantz and wants to trade for the kenwood and some cash . Not sure whay to do

I have just purchased a pl530, atuo tonearm doesn't reach the edge of the record and autoreturn doesn't go all the way home, can you give me any advice cheers...

Yep. I broke it right off. Was focused on getting the bulbs in and I ham handed right on the pointer and snap it went.

Thanks for the warning! I am completely technically incompetent, yet still somehow overconfident in my ability. Instead of taking this apart and getting frustrated and throwing away the pieces after they sit on my workbench for two months,, I’ll just take it to my repair guy. Cheers!

A 1050 recently a couple weeks ago went for 3700.00 on Ebay when it was auctioned off... Not buy it now. I have one close to mint in the original box that I got from a family that lost their son in the war and kept it for years. Bless their heart. I hooked it up and it sounds beautiful. I put it back in the box for preservation because I use my SA 9100 in one room and my SA 7800 in another room. I have a 850 also where it was peeling and I took off all of the peeling which had a lighter color finish and now looks new. I love Pioneer units.

I replaced those caps underneath the motor base by carefully inserting the tip of the soldering iron to the gap between the PCB and the motor base to reach the caps solder joints. For the feet, they are just stuck with springs inside. After removing the screws, you just have to pull them out straight.

Thanks! Just repaired mine

Great video, I also have a Marantz 2285b that I purchased new on 7/7/1979. It has exactly the same symptoms as the one in your video. I also tried the same preliminary things you did with the same results. I don’t have the skills to get into the circuit board like you did but the dealer I purchased it from is still in business (Team Electronics dba Pflantz Electronics). Guess I will be making a trip to see them. Thanks again for your video.

I had this receiver, i wish i would have kept it .

I used a 4 track reel to reel with mine and i loved it. When you have a different channel speaker in each corner you can really feel like your right in the center of the recording.

Excellent review! I own a TD 165 which has the dust cover with the molded hinges that slide over the pins on either side of the base. Definitely a weaker design as the "hinge" on the left side of the dust cover has broken so now I remove the dust cover whenever I play vinyl. I've replaced the belt several times and the turntable still works as new. I paid $125 when I purchased the turntable new in the mid-1970's

Would love to have one....

27:23 LOL Well, we are all making mistakes. I found this video because I thought something was wrong with my motor. Nope! I have always had a direct drive, okay. Got this heirloom and guess what? Gotta connect the belt to the motor for it to work silly! Welp, at least you saved me $75 USD on a diagnostic. LOL, I feel like a real dumbass. Thanks, good man! You have your like and sub.

I have this receiver and it does have great sound quality. It is a large and very heavy unit.

I have never seen that QX-9900. My only quad gear is a QC-800A preamp. Those are pretty rare also.

My table is fixed, how do I kill the Sperrring?

Đẹp tuyệt a

so i can get the pl 55x for 135 bucks all working is it worth me grabbing ?

I wonder if it has STEREO AM??

What are the resistors and greenie caps across the (4) large capacitors for? My GFA555 doesn’t have them.

I cannot get the steel plate to come off, you made it look so easy. What am I missing??????? Ty

Our movers decided to cut all of the tonearm cables and tape the actual arm part to the inside of the plastic cover... No idea why any intelligent being would think that was a good idea, but our turntable has been sitting around in storage for 8 years now. Thought "I can't really ruin it any more, let's just try to fix it" and I was wondering if I'd have to replace all of this, but I might as well buy new with the price of the parts. I never even considered replacing the tonearm wires, but I think this might be the solution to getting this thing working again. Time to get my ass kicked. Thanks for sharing!

I have the SX727 Receiver 😊

You did'nt do anything to the dragging noise at the startup. 😳 There is a spring pushing the pulley against the plate attached to the motor spindle. You should lower that plate a bit.

i have a sx-434 and couldn't figure out why all the lights were dim, it was the line voltage selector switch, it was set at 240v i switched it to 120v and everything works excellent!

I'm having an issue where the tone arm gets stuck in the same spots and loops on near mint records

hey the stylus on my td 165 is missing, do you happen to know where i could get a replacement?

Hi, I have a ps-x5 that has the same fast movement issue you had later in the video. Is the broken wire on the sensor board obvious? Do you attribute the repair more to the broken tone arm wire or the led swap?

Nice job looks great

The 850 does have real wood veneer.

Thank you for your time; the x3x series is a great sounding series of receivers. The SX-xx50's is a beautiful series of receivers; I'm an original SX-1050 owner here (biased maybe.) I had mine completely restored during COVID; significant financial investment but worth every penny, I listen to it every day.

ie: What sort of SHUNT would I require to create a FSD of an 8ohm speaker's line-feed terminals

OK so it "jumped" (so would you if a giant touched your leads (hands) across an electric fence). What I need to know is this, how to wire these things, across a speaker's terminals, to know what the VU reading is, when you have many different channels all powering speakers.. without any VU meter on the amp itself, as the amp only has two channels whereas the speakers come off different circuits that originated from the amp, but get further split before the speakers see the currents..

Mine didn’t have a jumper so we use cables to connect the plugs. Is that a bad thing?

hi, I have the same amp and love it, but today I turn it on and sound low, I send it for a recap 5 years ago (cost too much) and been working good till today, can you help me on what it could be?

What new camera did you get?

Thank you for the video!! huge help, so happy to have my turntable fully working again:)

Nice looking receiver. I recently found a mint Toshiba SA420 for $5 ,that also looks a lot like an SX650/750. I have been wanting a Pioneer SX model, but this will fit the bill for now.

Someone just asked me to check out a 730 Twin that has been sitting in a closet for many years apparently. This is my first HK. Gonna check the fuses and all that before running it through my dim bulb. There appears to be capacitors or something that looks like them connected to the A speaker jacks om the back. WTF? I couldn't tell without my reading glasses. I haven't looked at it since bringing it home. Wanted to watch some videos on HK's before I dig into it.
