I have a Nakamichi Receiver 2, and it's been working great for years. Today it "froze." It's stuck on phono, but it's not playing anything. Any ideas?

Hello Dakin, check if you can change the entries from the control
If you manage to change, the problem can be found in the Nakamichi input change switches, you should check if they make good contact, for which you would have to disarm the front of the equipment to access the solder contacts of the switches and with a tester in the continuity position, corroborate that when pressing the button, the circuit is closed indicating the tester, condition of continuity
Good luck with the tests
Greetings Franco Dosil

Hola Dakin, fijate si puedes cambiar las entradas desde el control
remoto, si logras poder cambiar, el problema se puede encuentrar en los switch de cambio de entradas del Nakamichi, tendrias que controlar si hacen buen contacto, para lo cual tendrias que desarmar el frente del equipo para acceder a los contactos de soldadura de los switches y con un tester en la posicion de continuidad, corroborar que al pulsar el boton, se cierre el circuto indicando el tester, condicion de continuidad
Suerte con las pruebas
Saludos Franco Dosil

My owner's manual is long lost, what do you need to know?

I don't know what problem you have, but mine, which Iv'e had since circa 1988, suddenly developed a failrly loud whistle from the speakers. I opened it for a looksee, and by chance spotted a dry joint on teh PCB. It had never been soldered properly. After soldiring that joint, the whistle is gone.....

SOURCE: Connect a phonograph turntable to a receiver w/o phono connection

you will need a little box called a pre-amp. This hooks up between the turntable and newer receivers without a phono input. A basic explaination & drawing of this type of setup can be found here

I have a NAD 1600 receiver for 40 years. It always worked fine!! I just moved it 15 feet to new room and volume seems stuck on high! Knob turns but volume doesn't change. What happened??

It is funny, I was just reading an article today about New Acoustic Dimension Cassette decks saying they were top of the line and equal to Nakamichi.

The most likely reason is that the volume control needs cleaning with Electrical Switch Cleaner. You would have to remove the case and look. It is worth a quick spray.

This says it has a motorized volume control.

Speaker volume is too low in my turntable setup. How can I fix it?

remove rca plugs from speaker wires and wire the speakers to speaker connections on the back of receiver. The receiver may already have a phono input for a turntable.

Anything that has a headphone output can be adapted to feed an RCA cable pair for standard stereo to any audio device with a standard RCA input (except PHONO). Get a cable like the one described here: http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10218&cs_id=1021804&p_id=665&seq=1&format=2
and connect it into any available analog input EXCEPT "Phono".

Press the pound (#) button, the mode light should flashthree times.

Technics turntable plays but no sound with Sherwood receiver

The problem is the fact that the new receiver has no phono input. The phono input has an extra stage of amplification built in. Your receiver is working fine. You need to purchase a phono pre-amp. These run around $20. Connect the turntable to the preamp and the presmp output to any line level input on your new receiver and everything will work as expected.

Rotel PReamp, Can I directly Connect my powered speakers to the output

Hi,

Based on your post, the pre-amp is doing its job. What might be the mismatch would be the powered speaker system plugged into the output of the Rotel. Depending on what the "powered speaker system" is, it might be that it is a low impedance such as those used in computers whereas the Rotel requires high impedance to be connected to its output. What could be tried is to connect a regular amp or receiver to the Rotel.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

How many years have you had this laptop? Sad to say, if it's many years, time to replace as that would be cheaper.
