I am not an electronic engineer nor am i old in the vintage HiFi game. When I’m repairing the equipment I therefore rely on your knowledge. I share what I find, and i hope you will make a comment, if the knowledge I find is outdated of if it helped you in anyway.

Please bear with me and be patient with my videos as im still learning how all of this works. Any suggestions on improvement, topics or equipment to test will be very much appreciated.
