Having a problem with my Marantz. Suddenly the volume control doesn't work on the headphone amp. Anyone run into this before and possible solutions. Volume is fine on the speakers so it doesn't seem like it would be the pot on the volume control.0

Sorry to hear about the Marantz. It's a 2245 right? This sounds strange, but can you pull the left front leg off? Sometimes a screw that is too long gets used, particularly if the unit ever had a wooden case. People used to remove the case and reuse the longer screws to put the legs back on.
Due to the location of the headphone jack, the screw would either damage the jack or short the signal in a number of ways.
Based on what you are describing, that would be the first thing I would check.
Good luck!If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0 -
One other thing: Are you using your Marantz by itself or do you have a power amp you're driving with the 2245's preamp?If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0

But back to the topic, this morning I went to check it out and realized what happened. I rarely use the headphones but my daughter was complaining the other night that I was jamming too loud and she couldn't sleep, hence the headphones. I had tied on a few cocktails and it was dark. Therefore... I plugged the cans into the dubbing port! In my DEFENSE... the left side is where the cans go on my SX! Anyway, dumb drunk move. The volume works perfectly fine.0 -
Those are the best kind of repairs. Glad it all got sorted out for you.If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0

So my oldest daughter moved to her first apartment at school last weekend and took the couch from the formal living room. I have taken this opportunity to change it to my listening room and moved all the records down from the third. Bought a few chairs, rug and also picked up some Dynaudio Evoke 20s to test. Also got the green light to put some "classy " prints on the wall.
Sound good so far but only had a few hours on them at the store so I'm breaking them in. I've been listening to Bowers for years so I'm used to their coloring. These Danish speakers are mellow but neutral.

I'm sure that the cranky bastard who fixed my Dual has a shload of fuses that fit, but his hours are tough. Meanwhile, no left channel.I SAW PEARL JAM0 -

It's a speaker fuse that's blown (left channel) -- 1.25-inch, 2.5A, 250V.I SAW PEARL JAM0 -
Well, I just went through my spares. I have 1 Amp and 10 MA fuses but no 2.5 Amp fuses.

Are you playing your Sansui at loud volume? Are you hearing any distortion from the left channel?If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0

Klipsch Reference Premiere 250 Atmos setup w/ Denon x3300w and Emotiva 7x200w amp and two 12 inch subs
I have an Outlaw 5000 which is 5x125 all channels driven and I love it. I think Emo and Outlaw are pretty similar. I really only use mine for home theater, but super clean for music0 -
