Luxman LV105

musicfan · 6th April 2007, 01:46 PM

Hi All,
I am new to this forum but have read many threads and have found some great info.
I have an LV105 that needs some attention. I am geeting static and inconsistancy from the outputs. They may need to be cleaned.
Any suggestion?

Hi,
The usual procedure is to clean all potentiometers, switches and contacts with a product called DeOxit.
Also check for bad solder joints, these are quite common in 20+ years old audio gear.
Cheers,
G.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I have never heard of DeOxit, is avalable at a retailer and is it OK to re-solder the faulty joints? I am new to servicing my own gear so I hope that you don't mind what might be really basic questions.
Dave.

Hi,
Deoxit is a contact cleaner, Google for it, it's quite easy to find in Canada. yes, it's Ok to just resolder on old solder joint, use a clean soldering iron and just "wet" it with new resin-core solder from time to time.
Best luck!
