:grin: haha, sorry, I wasn't clear there. I read someplace, that there are parts (at least in amplifiers) that can store electricity for quite some time, even when the device is being unplugged (capacitors?).

Thank you, even if I ruin the whole player by trying to repair it, it wouldn't a great loss. I will buy a multimeter when I have the chance and look at the service manuals. Is there anything I have to pay attention to, regarding security?

Hi, so a couple of months ago, I bought an old Kenwood CD player and a Tapedeck for 5 euros combined. Surprisingly, the CD player is not working :roll: and has been lying around my house ever since. I am now trying to repair it myself and wondered if anyone could help me. The problem is that...

So, the sound would be better on the Pro-Ject? The thing is, I've read reviews that are not too favourable on Pro-Ject's build quality, while the AT seems to be very sturdy. How big would the difference in sound quality be? I have been thinking and decided that a usb output wouldn't be such a...

Haha, I was already wondering why I couldn't find anything about them on the internet :wall: :rofl: Thank you :) Are they any good? I'll do some research myself, now that I know what to look for ;) EDIT: Well, there sure isn't a lot of info around. I could only find a single forum post in...

Awww, now I was almost sure that the AT was my TT of choice :grin: I am however confused which Pro-Ject we're talking about now. Also, is 250euros (342usd, 209gbp) a good deal on the AT? The Pro-Ject Essential II would cost cost the same, while the Pro-Ject Essential Basic would cost 228euros...

Thank you very much, I think I will get the Denon then. The Audio Technica Turntable looks very nice aswell, but is there a version without usb? Lastly, as a complete Hifi noob I have to ask the question, how do I determine if the speaker fit the amp? In guitar amps (only got experience with...

Hm, the Denon PMA-720 AE looks very interesting. It sells for 235euros new on amazon. Is there a big difference between the Pro-Ject Essential Basic and the II? I just remembered that my Grandparents have an old Denon System with seperate pre and poweramp. The problem with it is however, that...

Thank you :grin: well if I have to extend my budget to 500 euros in order to get a setup that is incredibly better I will, but id ofc prefer to stay under those 400, or 450 euros.

I am situated in Belgium. I have checked prices for the Rotel and with 400 euros, which is exactly 100 more than the Yamaha A-S300, this is definetely out of my Budget. The Pro-Ject Debut 2 doesn't seem to be sold anywhere, what about the Debut III? Are there any other quality Recordplayers from...

I am very grateful for your recommendation, but please be aware that I cited a budget. I will ofc consider the Yamaha AS500, but I'd also like to buy a turntable. Is the Yamaha the only good amp in that price range?

The Pro-Ject Essential (not the II) has five stars as well though... :? Also I'd like to keep the budget for both to around 450 (yes I just increased my budget ;) ) with just the Turntable that would leave around 180 euros for the amp. If I absolutely have to I will go to 500, but there have...

Hi, since quite some time I have wanted a nice little Hifi setup for listening to Records and CDs. I already have some old speakers (my parent's), they are Mulidane Carats. I have no Idea how good they sound, since I couldn't listen to them yet and I havent found any info on the internet. I...
