T - 1050 vs 1080. Which would you go with?

Excellent, clear video and audio. I also have a 2016 F150 5.0 liter V8 with about 82,000 miles on it, mostly from driving back and forth between California and Florida. I'll probably change the plugs soon. Thanks a lot!

Don't smell too hard that stuff was pretty good back in the day 😂

wah, from $159 1976 to $898 2024 what is happening with united states of America???? It is that bad?

bad math

Hi great video but remember the wattage the resistor has to carry volts x amps and you could use a potentiometer instead of a fixed resistor and be able to go from empty to full by adjusting the potentiometer. Great video 😊. Thanks Walter from Liverpool Merseyside England

Thank you for your video! My local dealership told me that they need 17 hours of labour hour to do so... and charge me thousands of dollars on it!😂😂

Just updated my SL-B202. New Ortofon Red stylus. Soldered better rca plugs and ground. New belt. Also to help with the horrible ringing with these aluminum platters a coating of dynamat. Also applied the dynamat to the interior (making sure it doesn't interfere with anything. Polished the plexi. The player is completely deadened. It is now performing way past its original sound. You don't have to spend a lot of money on a new player for sure.

Just bought a set of Model Six's for $30 at an estate sale. I also bought several components for $5 each. Nothing was hooked up, so I could not test anything. Direct drive Sony TT was a score at $5, works great. One of my KLH speakers is working great, the other not so much. Cabinets look great, so it's time to dig in a little further.

How many amps is set on your power supply?

My manual says .041-.047

what is the name of that spray cleaner

My truck has a skip do you think I might just need a tune up

I found the topology is similar to the solid state Acoustic Amps I've been fixing up. The era where tubes were starting to dominate.

way better than some of the other junk i found on KZfaq, thanks

Hey, nice video! Wifes 2012 Mini needs replacing that bulb, but the original says D1, and no matter what I search for I can only seem to find D1S replacement bulbs. Some forum post said the D1S is bigger than the D1, so not really sure what to do. Cheers!

Great video! I have 2016 5.0. Excellent instructions. Thank you 🙏

I don’t understand the input connections from the phone into the receiver with 1000 kh signal. Please clarify. Thanks.

These non-sanyo darlington power packs have a poor reputation in the diyaudio forums. Fine for low volume, but don't expect them to last at high output. There are some pictures comparing the internals. And there are reverse-engineered mini-board kits available, but pricey. Fwiw i had an sx580 which could not hold a candle to the nad 7125 which replaced it, particularly for bass reproduction. I would love to hear an all-original 780 compared to one with the replacement power packs, or even see the sine waves at high power. I know there is a lot of love for some of these late 70s pioneers, but i ended up donating my 580 to my staff for their lunchroom system.

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Just what I was looking for.

Thanks for the great video. Do you know the part no? That plastic piece is not on the UK Kettler spare part website and exactly the same has happened to mine. Thanks!

Repeat commentor here, you’re my kinda guy, noticed on your phone that you have the “blue driver” app. I have a pioneer 1080 and a muscle car and you have a pioneer 1080 and a muscle car. I was an ET in the Navy and because of this video I am making that leap from just doing voltage alignments to injecting signals. I can’t decide whether to use the sonic app or purchase a combo oscope / signal generator. What do you think? Also, can you use Bluetooth with the sonic app or recommend the patch cables?

On the output transistors, no replacements or substitutions correct? Can you elaborate on what the workaround is?

Thanks for the video, unlike JVC manuals this pioneer procedure doesn’t show you that the right channel is on the other side of the heat sink. So I was confused whether this adj. was for both channels or what? I was an ET in the Navy and have aligned many JVC integrated and power amps. This is my first Pioneer. Also step 3 under the idler current adj. says to repeat steps 1-4 above, but there are only 3 steps to the idler adj. and 4 steps for the center voltage So this further confused me. Your video was the only internet search I could find that straightened this out for me. Thanks again.

Did you have to drain the oil tank?

Is that the a ecto-1

Thanks for the idea. I’m going to try this with my ‘98 LS400’s sunroof that’s been having a terrible amount of wind noise from the front.

What is that annoying clicking sound through the video

I hoped you included in your video how to exactly locate that screw to remove the engine oil as there are plenty of screws in the car

Biggest Mechanic lesson. RTFM

I just installed a led in mine and there is a sign

Only O.E.M Mototorcraft for me. Good job otherwise.

Should the resistor stay in place when installed?

I inherited my 1280 😎 Btw, what is that fan setup called?

Do you check for DC offset?

i wish i could express how appreciative i am of this video, just replaced my minis bulb completely by myself and i’m so excited about that?! thank you!

Thanks for the detailed instructions. I’ll be making those adjustments to my 780 receiver. I bought new in 79. Starting to be a little “off” sounding lately. Would like to have seen a little more detail on switch cleaning but, I’ll getter done. Looked like WD40 is what you used ?.

Thank you for this super helpful video! I used this procedure for my temp gauge too. It works but I think I need a 300ohm resistor to test cold temp. Thanks again!!!

Thanks I followed your video to clean my switches and adjust my voltages and now my stereo works perfectly again.

Thank you. The toughest part was removing the cap for the 5 Amp fuse. I ended up using a cork screw because I didn’t have one of your handy dandy pic tools.

Amp chassis

I was surprised you didn't wipe off the suspect speaker switch...it looks gooey!

10 years ago maybe $2000.00 for a recapped and re-lamped unit ;greed today.

If you didn't replace the filter cause it's got low miles why replace the fluid???😂

FYI…….If this is an original dash carrier, the 4 small circles that surround the large center gauge (speedometer) should not be accented in silver.

I just purchased a non functioning 424. Hoping somewhat similar. Thanks for making this.

What about the passenger side How to get that plastic cover off? All the videos show drivers side only

Dozens of videos and none show the passenger side and how to get the plastic cover on that side off. That's the part I'm looking for

The Pioneer SX-1280 runs at a rated 185 watts per channel RMS not 200 Watts Per channel. Lovely clean near mint condition unit you have there. My Pioneer SX-1280 has slight damage to its cooling fins.

So we don't get to see how to test one?
