Kul att höra å roligt att den fortfarande rullar! Denna har varit brukisen som ersattes med en Renå Trafic från 04 som fortfarande rullar 30.000+ mil problemfritt :) Mastern var vit ibörjan men den lackerades om i grön metallic ett år innan du köpte den. Tycker man ska behålla & ta hand om äldre dieslar då de nyare har betydligt mer elektronik å skit som bara krånglar

I recently bought it one too. But i found an edgy sound with high freq when they are at their peak. I'm very careful with volume control. I never exceed the -10 minutes clock position. Everything is in flat. Do you think I have to replace any component??

@@jorgemartin5093 I immediately had to replace my speakers with better quality ones after I went from the 20 watts one to the 58 watts per channel Akai. It was a huge jump in sound type. But I do use it with the treble turned down one notch and the base up one or two notches to smooth it out a bit more.Sometimes it needs ten minutes to warm up to gel properly now that it's so old. Yours may need some work by a skilled technicians though. It was made 44 years ago.

@@screedy1050 yes. I use it with a pair if old Tannoy cheviot speakers. Sometimes iñI activate the high filter to warm things a but...but you know, i guess something happened to the Tannoys. I perceive some kind of distortion with certain treble frequencies...i'm scared. Maybe it is a capacitor from their crossover. I don't know. It sounds like dirt...

@@jorgemartin5093 if you make an appointment with a serious hi fi store,maybe you could get them to set the Akai up and pair it with some of their speakers. That way you could determine if the Akai is producing the distortion. Then do the same with your speakers. I've had to replace the foam surrounds twice on my old celefs after I noticed vibration and distortion. Take your speaker covers off,play some loud music and watch the drivers to see if there are any cracks. That amp can really push most speakers. Also Tannoys may be too bright a combination with it. Sometimes you just have to pay the money for repairs and upgrades.

@@screedy1050 thank u. Yes i did that with a technician friend of mine who brought all kind of test equipment before I plugged everything. The problem i noticed appeared days later. The bass reproduction is amazingly good. I mean very good. The high mids and treble get a distortion when they are a little loud. The Tannoy were recently refoamed. I guees The Akai could have damaged the Tannoy crossover circuit at some point. My friend told me that the Akai protection circuit was working absolutely fine. He tested it with 2 iron or steel bars connected to the amplifier speaker output to test its power with the osciloscope etc
