DaveAssumed this was a spade terminal to earth and broke it off the power transformer. I think this is a ring lug thermistor? I get 120ohm across the two wires at room temp. Any idea what the nominal value might be? The markings E2 75, maybe 7.5kOhm? Amp goes into protection mode without it so I've put a 2kOhm resistor in its place which lets it power on but the speakers are very quiet now. Could it be winding back the power in response to temperature? <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/hifi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hifi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electronics</a>

Dr. G. PowerIsn’t it funny how we grew up with stereos—left and right channels, all that—only to end up in a world where most people opt for a single stylish, wireless mono speaker? I’m not saying modern portable speakers don’t sound great—they do. But it’s curious how the masses just stopped caring about stereo sound? <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/hifi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hifi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#music</a>

Aldi80s 🇯🇵 アルディI found a 3TB 3.5-inch HDD full of MP3 files. I'd like to use them again. I'm looking for a decent stationary media player to connect to my amplifier and listen to them in my living room.

Popped off the lid to investigate and met instant regret...Even though my friend has never smoked, his parents do and in spite of this not being in their house for the past 20 years, it STILL stinks of musty cigarettes and contains the hair of several dog generations. 🤢
