Awesome repair Dave! This was a very interesting video to watch and learned quite a bit. You solved why my old unit failed, it had to been them bloody zener diodes as the power meter light did fail but I never bothered to replace the backlight as I didn't know much back then. That's probably all that was wrong with it. :/ Thanks again for your hard work and please let me know via e-mail what I owe you. :) I'm sorry it took you an entire day to service.

I always make sure my desoldering braid is 100% saturated with solder before tossing it, I've even been known to keep off-cuts if there is still a usable spot. And I agree with you on the desoldering pump thing, if its not new then it'll drop little flakes of solder onto the board. I learned that whilst swapping out caps on a densely populated TV SMPS.

I honestly did too. But as well as i have seen a few that did not. Like this one. Surprising for a slightly low-end 90's receiver. But not all the STKs were bad. So of the Technics amps of the 80's-90's were decent and some superb sounding but would overheat some would and cause the SVI sereies pack to get so hot it would desolder. But some were decent at almost 30 pounds and well over 100 true watts. Not many of the 90s receivers were worth a single dime but there were a few. Probably less than half of them. But the SVI (computer driven stk) drove the fan and protection relay as well so it is crucial that they keep solder joints intact very well and that the fan stays clean.

These thermal pads are specialy designed to transfer heat and isolate element from heatsink ... when you put thermal paste (or grease) you make it much worse and messy and heat dissipation is dramaticaly less than without thermal paste here ... beter alternative is to remove pads and leave only paste but only if transistors are in isolated package, otherwise this thermal pads are the best solution here but without paste ... if you need proove just mesure temperature with and without paste. On the other side, i love to see some old real electronics get fixed and granted with new life ... it makes me happy too

Like this picture, www.picclickimg.com/d/l400/pict/121078066485_/2SB1429-Original-Pulled-Toshiba-Transistor-B1429.jpg Is this an isolated package? I get what you mean, you don't want to short the transistors out against the metal heatsink. If what you are saying is true, I hope Dave will revise this, given he hasn't already boxed the unit all up. As I don't want worst heat dissipation, I run these transistors pretty hard.

After doing a little research myself, I shouldn't second guess Dave. It appears what he calls "insulators" are called mica and doing research on these "mica insulators" which they come in various sizes, several people on different forums state that you SHOULD put thermal compound/grease on both sides of the mica. This mica is supposed to keep the transistor from shorting to the heatsink. Most people say just a small pea on each side, some say to smear it. Everyone says don't add to much, as too much thermal compound is actually a bad thing. Dave was right..
@12voltvids
6 жыл бұрын
These transistors have a metal back electrically connected to the collector, and therefore require an insulator. The insulation material have a thermal compound in them. Adding a little more thermal compound, and this is not the run of the mill silicon grease that radio shack sold, will only fill any gaps between the metal back and the pad. The key is not not put too much on, just a thin coat which is what the insulators had on them from the factory. These are not thermal pads like you have on a CPU, they are very thin mica insulators coated with the same compound I used.
@victorcoss2600
6 жыл бұрын
Good stuff to know! These "micas" as I see they are called, weren't clear so that indicates they have thermal compound in them? As I see clear micas and people say USE THERMAL COMPOUND on them. I'll do my research first before jumping the gun and thinking there is a problem when there really isn't, one of my downfalls I am working on. Good work, and we have a lot to learn from you, that's why I love to pick your brain.
@12voltvids

Mica insulators are very poor at transferring heat. After all it was used as home insulation. Vermiculite is basically expanded mica. Thermal grease is required for the mica insulators. These ones are still mica based , but they have thermal compound between each layer so they do transfer heat quite well. The key is to not put on too much. Too much will result in less heat transfer. Just a thin film is all that is needed, and when the component is fastened, the paste spreads out to fill the air gap. I did not put a ton on the insulators, just enough to fill any air gaps between the metal heat sink and the transistor / insulators.

That triggered a 37.50 broker charge that I was happy to pass on to the client which pissed him off with me.

The smallest drop on the tooth pick, and then to the very edge of the lens where it fits into it's holder did the job. There are other glues that will also work and don't off gas such as good old white glue that kids use in school. Apply the same way. I used to use LocTite, you know the stuff used to keep screws from unscrewing. That worked great, and doesn't off gas like krazy glue does.

From the sound of that distortion, my guess is that one of the power supply rails is hoopajooped.

Yup, knew that going in. Thats why I went right to the power supply to check for a missing voltage.

As far as a circuit bulletin, just gut the old LCD/LED light bulb VU meter and replace it with a nice blue-green VFD ;-) But eh. thats just me.

THEtechknight It's all about keeping a vintage receiver looking vintage. Yes I could have put a big resistor in there and some LEDs but again it is all about keeping things stock. My old beer signs that were lit with a 7w bulb could easily be fit with a 1w led but they don't have that warm glow so I stick with the 7 or 4 watt incandescent. For the number of hours they run it costs me nothing to run them.

No, I like JVC's pick of their vintage orange and red, and I provided the fuse bulbs and they were very cheap to obtain. Though I have seen them use blue/green combo as well, but orange and red were their style and I dig it. The power meter itself are orange LEDs, the backlight is just an orange/red piece of transparent plastic paper like thing.

The JVC I owned was an orange color filtered based unit as well but it had a VFD behind it instead of LED or LCD., it was an AX-R450. The indicator was a spectrum analyzer instead of a VU meter. That thing was a powerhouse! I forget what it was rated for, but I had a pair of Technics SB-CR99 speakers hooked to it, and I could get it so loud that the woofers would start smoking. Anyways, at the end of the day all that matters is what you want and how you want it to be, and how you want to use it ;-) Oh, and that you enjoy it :-)

Cheapo? This was a $1,200 mid-tier rack outfit in it's hayday. We aren't talking about Sanyo or late 90s early '00s all in one bookshelf stereos here. I've had cheap... and this ain't it.. it's more mid-range. We ain't talking about mid 90s receivers either full of digital processing chips and other garbage to alter the analog signal going to the output stage. This is a full analog amp. And we sure as hell aren't talking modern receivers that only last a year or two, trust me I know several people that spent money on em and they all have problems. This thing lasted 30 years strong and only failed cuz I was stupid to wipe it down with a damp cloth and short out a capacitor. Now get lost!
