Hi friends,
Before I take it to the tech shop tomorrow for repair, I seek your opinion.
I've been using vintage JBL SG520 preamp to drive 4343.
When the volume is set at stereo mode (as seen in the pic), I hear the music coming from both speakers, pleasant to my ear.
Now, this is the issue: when I turn the volume all the way down to the left, I still keep hearing audible music from the right speaker.
When I do the vice versa, namely all the way down to the right, however, I hear nothing from the left speaker as it should.
As seen in the pic, the knob in the Balance is the volume device that slides all the way down to the left or right for volume control.
So, I think there must be something wrong with the unit. Maybe leaky capacitors or any other issue?
Given it's already more than 50 years old, I think it needs a thorough check and recap by a tech.
I look forward to your opinion and feedback. Any feedback would be welcome. Thanks.
