50+ years in the ' hobby' as well.
My old Marrantz 2285, volume control and back lights. Michelle table, 2 DC drive motors in the past 25 years at $600 a pop, so not so bad in my opinion...
Reliability - what’s your experience been?
I’ve been into high fi since the 1970’s. Fortunately, equipment breakdown has been few and far between.
As best as I can recall, I needed the following repairs:
1- new motor on a Thorens turntable (noisy motor)
2- Repair of an Aiwa tape deck (noisy channel)
3- Bryston amp (broken power switch)
4- Proceed amp (would not turn on)
5- CAL cd player (noisy channel)
6- Bricasti dac (no sound- just static)
7- Simaudio cd player (failed transport)
8- Pass integrated amp (intermittent noise)
not bad for almost 50 years experience. How has your experience been?
