What is going on with HifiEngine?

As hifiengine.com still does not accept creating a new account for me I would like to ask some kind soul on here to please download the owners/instruction manual, schematic and both the service manuals from https://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/sony/tc-50.shtml for me as I am in the process of restoring two (or maybe combining them into one working one) of these at the moment!

If you can then please send to [REDACTED]

I have recently gotten three of the manuals but the one still missing is the Service Manual (for serial numbers from 51001+) with the following link:

Thanks in advance!

Hi All,

since the (registration) issue on hifiengine still prevails, could some kind soul please provide me with
  • a user manual
  • also, less importantly, a/the service manual/s
for the Denon DCD-1460 (CD player), in English and/or German? [The suggested electrotanya alternative has nothing.]


TIA
 
I have four of these amps, two of which have failed:
Dayton Audio APA-150 / Emotiva BPA-1

Hifiengine shows to have the schematic, but as with others here on DIYaudio, I don't have a Hifiengine account and it explicitly states you no longer create new accounts. I can't find the schematic anywhere else. I've been trying to find for 3+ years, contacted Dayton, Emotiva, and Parts-Express, all state they cannot or will not provide, or just didn't respond to my dozens of requests.

Would a kind soul please please pretty please grab this PDF schematic on my behalf? I would be eternally grateful.

Thank you in advance. I will be posting a youtube showing the repair on this very common issue (speaker protect circuit quits working after 2-7 years).
