Hi legends,
New to the blog. Its nice to have people reunited by the same cause.
I just bought a used Yamaha A420 amplifier (1985). Problem is the balance knob is descalibrated, but that did not mean a problem to me until I discover that when I turn the volume knob, the balance in the speakers gets ****** up. Lets say I increase the volume instantly the right speaker starts to sound louder than the left, if I lower the volume same effect other way round. This means everytime I touch the volume I need to balance the speakers...
Does anybody know how to fix this? I have searched in the internet and unfortunately did not find any useful advice, only that it could be dry joints on the volume pot. Talked with a technical by phone and he told me chepear fix would be 90 euros, which is a lot for me now. Any DIY solution would be very very appreciated!
Best regards.
