Our Goodwills have nothing like that 😢

Good job 👍

Good job well done. 👏

I worked for Advent during the late 70s as a district sales manager in the Southeastern U.S. It's pretty rare to see the 5012 and 5002, but, as I remember, the "Direct Report" tweeter (Direct radiating, parabolic dome, optimum range tweeter) was the big new feature! Unfortunately, as your demo showed, a lot of people felt that the new tweeter was not an improvement over the original Advent tweeter. Most consumers felt that the new tweeter sounded "muted" compared to the original product. You said you matched the levels between your Tannoy's and the 5012s at 1 Khz, but that can cause results similar to what you heard. Pink noise or even white noise might do a better job of letting you match levels to remove efficiency from the equation. Enjoyed the presentation!

안녕하십니까? 3번째 우퍼 스피커에는 배선이 연결 되지 않나요? 음을 효과적으로 들을수 있게 장착된 패시브 스피커 일까요? 매우 궁금합니다.

wow. the difference is drastic. the before sounds downright abrasive. i've got to dig up my old silver's and get to work!

Would be nice, next time, to hear a before and after sound check.

I bought a pair of 5012s pre-Jensen in Seattle at Pacific Stereo. I still run them on my main system and they have been re-foamed a couple times. Still my favorite pair of Large Advents that i will not part with. Great video and i love the restoration work you did on your set.

I have the 5002 I found local and they are in really good condition. Mine have cone tweeters instead of domes but they still sound good. Edit: whoops my speakers are the 2002 model. That explains the cone tweeters.

Beautiful, gorgeous piece of gear. But I would stack my Pioneer SX-1980 up against it, any day! lol

Why replace the resistor? Was it burned out or something? I always thought resistors are like inductors... they pretty much never go bad. Did you change the resistance value to modify the tone? Thanks!

So glad you started this channel! I really enjoy your content. Those advent speakers are a gem. I use to have a pair with the fried egg tweeter.

G' day Matt, Just came across your channel mate & of course subscribed, Very good tutorial & style in your vids, Great explanation on A vs B as I first thought B was better as it sounds louder, Then after your comments, A sonically was so much superior, look forward 2 when U make the kit with all of the parts that will be cheaper. Cheers!

Truly an outstanding video. It deserves way more views than it has. But I almost passed when I first saw your appearance, because I thought "amatuer". A haircut and a shave would go a long way in promoting your channel. Sorry... that's harsh, but appearance goes a long way if one is trying to portray seriousness in their message. You could have hundreds of k's views on a video of this quality. Take that extra step.

I have been an electronic repair technician for over 30 years and your attention to detail and technique mirrors my own and it is a pleasure to watch you work.

You have good taste.

Fono not fawno. And i recently had one of those fishers i got thrown in for free and they have an STK and are decent. I believe that 831 is 45 watts per channel but they dont like anything less than 8 ohms.

Sansui 5050 for 50$? Thats a stupid steal!

Fawno? Fono. Phono section.

Ask if they got anything in the back that hasn’t come out yet every time you go there

A is a good a guess as any when given A or B on a youtube listen test..

I especially after you “took off the wood case” don’t trust you doing anything to it or any other things you manipulate in some sort of fashion or another…..😂😅

ruclips.net/video/AJHzhSDgLlY/видео.htmlsi=ISOC9-iGtTRlkKEN If the channels start intermittently start cutting in and out 95% chance its corrosion on speaker relays. Factory relays are not sealed, buy sealed relay replacements and install. The cost between sealed and not sealed relays really begs the question why they didn’t spend the extra few cents. These NADs and Protons would have one of the best histories of reliability in all of hifi. Instead everyone thinks their channels eventually go out when its just stupid relay contacts.

Wow. 333.Rick

Great work man. Funnily enough I had a similar fault on the same model and it was an open resistor as well in the same area. Weird how they fail like that, guess its age and the oddities of electronics 😁

Granted my ears are probably terrible, but I heard absolutely, totally no difference.

A is the tubes but B still sounds better 😂

You need to crank it up to enjoy it 😉

Hi Sir, I saw your ad for the CR-620. I have that coming to my workbench in a few weeks and wondered if I can get the replacement component list from you?

Is this basically the same for KG 5.2? I have a speaker that the high end is just dead. I bought replacement drivers with hopes this is it, however I would appreciate a parts list to replace all the components on the board.

EVery sound you hear is coming through the solid state amp of your computer. Since SS amps are essentially perfect, if there is any kind of difference, the valve amp is causing distortion.

Nice work!

B is Harman Kardon

I have two sets of Advents. The smaller bookshelf & bigger from either the late 60's or early 70's. The bigger ones need woofers worked on & repaired. They still play but sound bad. The little ones really rock.

Those tweeters are very much irreplaceable. Their lower range is much lower than the usual tweeter, 350 or 700hz, I forget off the top of my head. Maybe the Optimus 1B was 350hz. Nothing in the parts express catalog at the time I had them other than the large diaphragm tweeters had sufficient range.

I just got one of these SR-1000’s, too! Your detailed restoration is helping me a lot!! Thank you 👌

A. all day

A is tube and b is solid

Will those cleaning techniques work on the insides of my lungs?!

So, you did the test pre and post modification, or are we listening to two different speakers?

❤❤❤❤❤

NICE!!!👍✌️❤️🎼🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶✨

I'm going to try the Magic Eraser method. As for the circuit boards, I usually use CRC contact cleaner. You can buy a couple of cans of it and just absolutely spray everything down and soak it and it will not hurt anything. It will usually wash most of the tar off, but you may have to do some scrubbing with a toothbrush. You will want to avoid spraying the if and RF cans of the tuner, as well as the variable capacitor.

So on my Akai AA-1050 Aplifier the case is just cheap mdf with a plastic veneer on it to make it look like real wood so I used brake cleaner to clean it and it worked perfectly and for the rest I got it professionally serviced and cleaned

I literally open my gear up once a month to clean and dust it. I bought it off a client from work who always had a huge Cuban cigar in his mouth. The Toshiba preamp and power amp looked like it had a champagne finish on it but after cleaning it the brushed aluminum finish popped .

Good Job

We have way too much in common

The sound of vintage audio restoration is a beautiful music
