1980 ⚙️ RESTORATION Lafayette F-990 (TDS-1) ✅ RETRO headphones 🎧 that THROWN AWAY!

[@jonvincentmusic]

Dude only has five videos so far, yet we've discovered he is is an electronics engineer, chemist, seamster, painter, and master fabricator using plastic and metal. Insane talent.

[@Repair3R]

I'm modest actually 😀😀😀

[@digitalmasters8253]

I watch alot of restore channels on youtube and this guy is the best I've come across. Does an amazing job.

[@Repair3R]

Thank you very much for such kind words! But among the restoration channels there are real WHALES )

[@MaggieKeizai]

Yup. Some take shortcuts that make you cringe, some do real damage, and plenty make fake messes to clean up. This guy knocks it out of the park and apologizes for not hitting the ball a city block farther. Legendary stuff here. So many skills brought to bear on his projects. Also, it's pretty cool to see the moscow olympics logo on old headphones at random.

[@patrickshao2740]

I was literally saying NO WAY when you took out the epoxy, you are god-like already, right on!

[@Repair3R]

You exaggerate my merits ), thanks for the kind words.

✊ Let it live longer and conserve resources ! ✌️

[@th3Reader]

I think you did a wonderful job. Even tho it is not a restoration in a classical sense, you still indeed "restored" it into a condition, where it can be used again for many years to come :)

[@Repair3R]

Thanks friend ), glad you liked it. I use these headphones as my main ones on the computer.

[@emre_bygs]

Very successful. Also very high quality restoration. I enjoyed watching it. I liked it very much. I wish you continued success. 10 number video.

Amazing!!

[@alexkuss2001]

Awesome job man I can't wait to see more

[@Repair3R]

Thank, there will be more soon, unfortunately this process is not fast. )

[@alexkuss2001]

@Repair3R that's okay I enjoy the process and it's satisfying

[@filipedornelles662]

Hi! Good evening! I'm in Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul State watching your video! I would like to do some restorations with some speakers that I have in my house! But I lack a little knowledge in the area of electricity and electronics! Your video motivated me to follow this path! Congrstulations!

[@Repair3R]

Thank, I'm glad you liked the video. It's good that I motivated you to take action, that's nice)

[@JoseLopes-dl1nc]

Bom trabalho. 😊

[@Repair3R]

Thanks friend )

[@joshthecomputertech]

Paint the pop rivets. Loved the burner and clear dish. YOU USED A SEWING MACHINE? OMG, S-TIER 🤯

[@Repair3R]

Thanks again. I didn't paint the rivets, I thought they wouldn't be visible in the end. )

[@vladislavshchelkaev8392]

Отличная работа! У меня тоже такие наушники есть. Только они в лучшем состоянии. И разъём стоит родной DIN41524. К нему сделан переходник на mini-jack (3,5 мм). Сохранены в аутентичном состоянии!

[@Repair3R]

Thank you. When I was making them, I was also thinking about an adapter, but I decided to resolder them, because they won't be in factory condition anyway. I'm thinking about a small collection of such rarities, but in authentic condition.

[@nicoletaanton3003]

You're so good at this 😀

[@Repair3R]

It's good that you appreciated it, I was already starting to think that the content is hopeless. KZbin doesn't show me to anyone yet)

[@monopry5635]

Thanks for all the fun stuff and device rescues you provide us with, but I have a special request, which is that you enlarge the font of the comments, notes and explanations that appear during the video and explain the materials used.

[@Repair3R]

Thank for your constructive feedback. I will take your requests into account in the next video.

приємно побачити ці навушники.Гарна робота.А випускали їх у моєму місті.Самбір Львівської обл

[@Repair3R]

Yes, yes, I indicated this in the description. Only I wrote "Lviv, Ukraine", now I will know exactly where exactly. Diakyu druje ;)

Bonjour sur les 4 vidéo sur ta chaise j'ai apprécié continue ainsi ta chaise est prometteur ❤❤❤❤

[@Repair3R]

Thank you, glad you liked it. Working on the fifth video)

[@TheShadeborn]

Neat! Indeed it's more renovation then restoration. How's the sound? Last time I've used something like those was old Soviet Mayak audiosystem and Phoenix headphones. I even remember I listened Kraftwerk on those!

[@Repair3R]

I didn't really like the sound. There aren't enough low frequencies. The paper speakers are good, but most likely for live concert, instrumental music, for listening to it. That's probably what they were designed for. I want to replace the drivers in them.

[@alfredofloress3435]

👍👋🇲🇽

[@Cabeza492]

Y know I've seen this exact video before. But I can't remember where!

[@Repair3R]

You might have seen this video on my old channel that had problems. I only posted headphones there.

[@Cabeza492]

@@Repair3R I knew it! Haha thanks for your answer! I thought I was having some crazy deja vu or something haha! Sorry for your other channel, I hope you do well with this new one!

[@Repair3R]

Glad I helped solve your riddle. ) Thanks for your concern. On this channel I took precautions more seriously, everything is fine.

[@matibuce]

@@Repair3RI too saw this already. which was the name of your older channel?

[@Repair3R]

The channel was called "Custom Fix", it has already been deleted.

[@apb3251]

Why did you not add colour to the text that says 16 bit?

[@Repair3R]

You asked in the wrong video ) I completely agree with you, it was necessary to do this. But I understood that this "clone" did not have a gold inscription initially. Maybe they were too lazy to do it in China. Let the replica be a replica, after all, it is not the original Japanese version. But if I were to make this console again now, I would make the "16 bit" inscription gold

[@apb3251]

@@Repair3R shows I watched more than one video 😂
