Title: And... So Endeth the Music
Post by: pc_kwajalein on 04/20/2014, 09:47 AM
My Turbo Duo has stopped putting forth the music from CD based games.  :cry: Which especially sucks when I play Ane-san because where else can I hear such a weirdly infectious soundtrack while beating up baddies with a female character who is an alcoholic, has a lazy eye, and spits fire? Where, I ask you?!

At any rate, I noticed the sound slipping a few weeks ago but somehow the problem magically solved itself for awhile. But now, it appears the all the music has ended. Reading up on the issue, I see that replacing certain caps under the hood are the solution. Now, I've tried self-repairs in the past and results were less than stellar, and by that I mean, "OMG, what in the actual phuck have I done?" Luckily, it was just an aging original PS2.

Can anyone recommend a reputable repair service, or individual who is adept at resolving the problem? I easily replaced the PS2 I attempted to operate on, but my Turbo Duo will NOT share that fate!
