I just purchased a vintage 80s 100 Watt Fisher amp. the exact same one I had as a kid for my DJ business. I also purchased a Pioneer SX-205 for when the Fisher eventually fails.
The Fisher has 7 sliding potentiometers.
The Pioneer is 1995 to 2000.
Amazon offers numerous Deoxit products at ridiculous prices. I also think the needle applicator is the way to go.
Any help would be appreciated.
I am checking all my old electronics to put together my system. I am looking for a way to feed CDs ripped to FLAC to my analog system. This requires the player to have high quality Digital to Audio conversion and amplification.
I dug up an old Lenovo T420 ThinkPad. An i-5 25** processor. Probably Win XP originally but now running Linux mint. I plugged my $13 corded Sony headphone into the headphone jack. Holy mackeral! All the music the artist created was there. I will be using this for my digital to analog audio front end. ThinkPads were the high end no cost spared for the corner office executive. The volume output was much higher than my cheap little DAP player but both reproducing the music accurately.
ThinkPads are bulletproof and rebuildable and can be had for under $100.
