    DIN input (European) on jvc RC-series-can the resistor be replaced by a trimmer?

    Thanks Super-duper, you re right (of course). Figured out as much, they did put resistors / caps etc in for a (good) reason. The 555 I ve got is a "messed with" one, specs are not as service manual says, things have been bridged, and it's particular din on this particular device seems to have a...

    DIN input (European) on jvc RC-series-can the resistor be replaced by a trimmer?

    ...jack but rather become a smartphone input jack. BTW, @H3NK3L you must be looking at different service manuals than I am. I checked the M70 and RC-555 service manuals and the input resistor on line-in is only 27k, and the M80 is like 56k. Not sure where you are getting 1M. The only time...

    DIN input (European) on jvc RC-series-can the resistor be replaced by a trimmer?

    ...saw you schematics - I looked at the wiring diagram (the pcb and the components and where they go on mine) . So far I only had this issue on JVC m70 / JVC RC-555 / JVC M60 / JVC M80 and some other jvc rc-series. Fysically on the PCB they all have resistors (1M value) between input pins. 1...

    Boombox Dreams

    Not the first time I have had a dream about one of my radios. The first one was my M70 after Superduper repaired the tone board alps sliders. I dreamt someone who wasn't familiar went to adjust the volume and turned the slider caps instead of sliding them. When I went up to it, they were a...

    1980 PANASONIC RX-5120LS..no tone output on right channel

    ...side that wasn't working. You can see the idividual "fingers". One for each channel. The plastic nylon slider has tiny stems that, after the metal feeler is placed down on, they melt to hold it in place. After a while those tiny plastic retainers break off and the finger simply falls off. M70.

    JVC M70 cassette play problem

    Gents, I have a M70 that fast forwards and rewinds perfectly. However, when you press play on a tape, the button depresses fine, but pops up after a second or 2 and the tape doesn't move at all. Any help is appreciated.

    Sanyo M-X720k smashed power supply boards FIX

    Initial testing shows that the output on AC is about 20.7VDC. (The Sanyo M-X720k is a 15V box). This compares almost identical to a JVC RC-M70 chassis that I had lying around open, and that tested to be 20.6VDC. Frankly, this is the transfomer that I recommend. I've also used this same...
