Mark repairs a subscriber's 46 year old amplifier. It certainly has a few suprises in store, and it doesn't help when Mark screws up!

    I know next to nothing about electronics, but these videos are captivating. Mark's knowledge plus his pleasant demeanor keeps drawing me in. πŸ˜€

    I'm an old troubleshooter of electronics from the 80's. I miss those days and I relive them through these videos. More please ...

    I like playing a game in my head - Everytime Mark laughs when something doesn't work, I yell obscenities. Love the content Mark!
  • @I-LOG
    You really got me with that cliffhanger! Can't wait to see what happens next, love your videos!
  • @gingerbreadaudio
    I'm blown away with your test equipment. It's a great video πŸ‘

    It's about time you got a tricky one. I was beginning to think you only filmed the easy ones, haha! Almost all of my repairs are as bad as this or worse. Suppliers have almost given up on support for repair now so it's up to us to fix them any way we can.
  • @scottsgear
    Woohoo! I'm such a fan, thrilled to see a new video from you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

    Someone gave Mark a beautiful mind and fantastic hands. He can fix everything. He s a master. He s a celebrity of these thematic channels. And as for all the celebs we want to watch more and more: Mark at the grocery store for example, or Mark taking a boat. That would be brilliant.

    Mark, you really know your stuff, and you got all the fancy tools that help!
  • @Grottolova
    Ahhh YES! I cherish these repair vids!
  • G, day Mark from Sydney Australia. I really enjoy watching your circuit board investigations, testing; * Diodes * Capacitors * Resistors * Integrity of traces and solder connections * Oscilloscopes (frequency peak to peak) two independent channels. * Flow of voltage and amperage to specific specs of each component. * Dis- assembly and assembly of cabinets ( with repair and manufacturing of controls) Thank you for your time in producing these videos, sir. πŸŒπŸ‡­πŸ‡²πŸ€¨

    I always look forward to seeing your videos - totally absorbing to watch. It’s almost worth me blowing something up just to see you repair it. Great stuff MarkπŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»

    I just love this channel! 30! years after getting my AAS in Electrical Instrumentation Technology, I can follow along while you troubleshoot cool stuff. I don't work on electronics for a career. I am more of a CNC repairman and Industrial electrician, but watching you patiently go through these old amps and other audio gems brings me back to my college days. And thank you for leaving your infrequent mistakes in! We all make them, so its good to be reminded that sometimes s%*t happens, but its ok, just carry on. Cheers from Long Island, NY.

    I like your smile and positive attitude throughout your repairs, even when things get difficult you never swear or anything
