:D thanks to derlange who was a big big help and support to adjust the level of my ps500 after some hectic transportation. we borrowed on his technique for the best part but succeeded in a simpler way. so here's "ps500 level-control for dummies" 8) phil http://s1.postimage.org/2job7wa2s/ps...

hi derlange :D my friend took some time to adjust the suspensions. according to him it was way easier than described (i had sent him a translation of your instructions) and succeeded to reach the 4,5 heigth by twisting only the nut, without dismounting anything else nor cutting the springs... way to...

hi everybody got my c3 back yesterday from my friend's workshop. he cleaned it, checked and demagnetized the heads, witnessed no significant noises and got the record function back. so i felt rather confident when i turned it on, then the buzz started again and slightly louder on play... damn! :cry:...

hi again
waow! thanks a lot but it seems pretty tough for a non-handy guy like me ...
but i guess i have no other option than get my hands dirty anyway
cheers

Hallo Thomas, hier noch ein Tip, wie man die kleinen altersbedingten Macken wieder in den Griff bekommt: 1. Die Federn, die das Subchassis tragen, sind i. d. R. ausgeleiert, so daß der Plattenteller meist nicht mehr den vorgegebenen Abstand von 4 mm zur Geräteoberseite hat. Wenn Du die Bodenplatte ...

hi Jens and thanks for checking your backyard
yeah, hopefully i'll get lucky
cheers

:) hi everybody finally back on planet braun after some family issues... i had the opportunity to have the c3 checked by a pro and things improved: no more strange sound on power and recording function is back to normal! :lol: however, he noticed that the left channel is somehow lower and muffled (d...

:) new belt arrived this morning and fits perfectly so i was able to check the phono functions. :? well, mono is ok but stereo is out... i thought about checking the cartridge/ cell and noticed there's a wire missing: the blue one. could it be the problem? i tried to replace it by another - taken fr...

:D thanks everybody for your tips and concern. i finally cleaned the last residues with alcohol and everything seems to run smoothly on the different speeds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5N8PYyqUaB4 i ordered my new belt thru ebay and can't wait to test it. next movie will be with the turntable pl...

hi derlange i guess it's a classic to start with the original components and then move on up i plan to get a 300 or 310 too when the opportunity occurs. of course i took the L710 along, i wouldn't rip this nice system apart. what's your take on the belt? maybe the one i shot isn't for the turntable ...

hi everybody i was already in love with my Audio 1 but destiny has its own stereophonic ways. i had noticed an ad a few weeks ago on the boncoin.fr website for an audio 250 sold in the southwest of france and after initial contact, it appeared that the seller, a charming lady- was there to take care...

thanks again for keeping me posted. i'll try my best this weekend!

hi jens, ji gereon thanks for your support and your help, it's really kind of you and means a lot. about your remarks: actually, the light on the tray is still on and the speed -play/ff/rew-seems unaffected. the red dot lights up when recording is on and the monitor shows some activity/volume input ...

Thanks Jens for your support. and congratulations again for the fantastic job you did! since the other day it seems like the situation evolved for the worse, as the C3 doesn't seem to record either... i briefly considered sending it back to the seller and pray to get the insurance money but it proba...

hi jens and bonsoir rasmus! first, much props to you jens for "recreating" this beautiful grey machine from scratch - or crash. it sure gives me some hope... funny to read about this problem tonight as i'm just running into a similar (tough less "spectacular") situation with a bl...

thanks guys for your feedback!
it was fun doin' it and i had to show some love to my audio1...
most of my second-hand records have probably seen worse than a shure stylus (though not because of me)...
so here's another one feat Cal Tjader

hi everybody :D i recently acquired an audio 1 - sent from germany to france - it arrived in great shape and plays pretty well. then the seller asked me if i did took care of releasing the two screws that locked up the turntable system for transportation (sic), i kinda worried since i didn't think o...
