a short introduction. Hello to all, my name is Marty but I go by the mad Czech. My awesome friend and brother in arms "the Jigster " gave me that moniker back in the 80's. We have enjoyed music and Hifi equipment conversation every since we meet. Jig is a huge Caver enthusiast and has turned me into one as well. Im retired and have gotten back into collecting vinyl, i love collecting and listening to my albums. I recently picked up the hobby of collecting vintage Hifi stereo equipment and speakers. Im teaching myself how to repair and update the pieces of equipment I've acquired. I know enough to be dangerous, i can read a schematic and can replace basic components. When it comes to making adjustments that i cant do, i don't own an osyloscope, but i do have a nice multimeter and a few otherpiecesoftestequipment. I started with updating and or replacing speaker crossovers. So now I'm moving on to rebuilding receivers. I have a Yamaha CR-840, Fisher RS-2015. I recently purchased a Phase linear 1000 S/N 9841. From everything I've read it needs to be rebuilt. I cleaned it and used Deoxit for all switches and pots but that is as far as I've gone. I will need to find someone to do a complete rebuild due to that being over my head. Im asking for thoughts on if its worth the cost to completely rebuild or to just have the parts that are out of spec replaced? Or should I just purchase one that has been updated and in specification? I really want to add a PL1000 to my system and enjoy its benefits of noise free vinyl and the sooner the better. Thank you for letting me participate on this site. I look forward to hearing from members regarding the PL1000.
