Console Repair/Mod Center / TURBO DUO SOUND FIX!! (56k beware)
09/01/2005, 01:57 AM
Awesome! #2 is me (even though I mentioned a couple of weeks ago letting it run for a while temporarily fixed it). Do you think the overheating will still be an issue with the new caps or was that just something the old caps had problems with? Thanks Chief!

Awesome D-lite, thanks! Very strange our Duos are. I guess that's the price you pay for having sweet first generation technology and expecting it to work right 13 years later.

Do you mean the cd laser? Is that a seperate problem you're having because I know duos with the red book audio problem can have the cd assembly, laser and all, transplanted into a working duo/r/rx and work fine. Maybe you're not talking about the same thing though.

Quick update to my last post.....Has been playing with no fade outs for about 2 hours. The problem initially surfaced after a few years in storage, not after continued use. I wonder if something got "rusty" and needed a good "flushing". Of course I have no scientific basis. I still don't consider this issue fixed.

Hey D-lite what's the status of your experiments? I just pulled out my duo that hasn't played cd music for a few years and decided to do the "let it run for a while trick" with a music cd. After about 30 minutes it started to fade into perfect sound, for the first time since it went out years ago. Then after a few seconds back out. It's been doing that for the last 30 minutes now but each time fading out less and working correctly more. It almost sounds like something in there is dirty like with old stereo tuner controls. Mine has all of your listed symptoms where the hu card music/fx/cd fx play fine. Anyway, just wondering. Thanks!
