    Removal of bass driver from Boston VR2 speakers

    I had the Bostons hooked up to a Technics SU-Z45 with the only source a Technics SL-B303 turntable connected.  I used this as a backup to listen to my "not so good" LP's as i didn't want to play these LP's on my Lenco L70 (connected to my NAD amp & Q Acoustic Concept20 speakers).  Everything...

    Removal of bass driver from Boston VR2 speakers

    I have a set of Boston VR2 speakers and one of the speakers have both their bass drivers damaged. The damaged bass drivers sound like they have voice coil damage (excessive distortion and scratchy sound).  Replacement drivers for these Bostons are hard to find (not available from the suppliers...

    Vintage Audio Kit - Members' Pics

    Picked up this beauty from my local Cash Converters this afternoon.  Really blown away by the sound - even if it's just 20 W/ch.  Sounds way better than my NAD T763 which is around 130 W/ch in stereo mode.

Hahaha, yes, I'm the guy who dropped off the Technics SL-B303 week...

The AMP does switch on and everything seems to be working fine - such as...

    Hi Skollie, I was SO hoping not to hear a sound from the multimeter but I'm afraid the fuses checked out OK.

    NAD Repairs Cape Town

    I'm sweating already just thinking about multimeters and stuff  :-[  but I'll give it a go in the morning  :thumbs: Regarding the volume knob position - have always treated my "baby" with care - I do however on the odd occasion let my old Sansui amp and Technics speakers have a go at annoying...

    NAD Repairs Cape Town

    Many thanks Stereosane - will give them a buzz. Skollie - don't laugh but I think with my "electronic skills" I will probably cause more damage by opening it up  :-[

    NAD Repairs Cape Town

    Hi Folks, My first post, so hopefully I'm at the right section for advice. I have a NAD T763 that need some repairing - if this is possible?  It powers on but there's no "2nd" click sound anymore (the "click" sound after the initial turn on "click").  No sound coming from speakers at all (not...
