Sony STR-DB930 5.1 Channel 120 Watt Receiver. Condition is For parts or not working.

 

 

This is a desirable surround sound amplifier. I am selling as ‘not working’ as it suffers from the known ‘cracked/dry solder problem of this popular model. The receiver has a protection system and shuts down automatically when the joints open. It can be repaired…

 

 

(“…each channel has it’s own dedicated speaker protection circuit & each of these has it’s own relay. From the factory all solder joints I’ve ever seen in any electronic device are very thin & regularly go dry & crack due to heat stress.(They’re easy to see) This is what caused my receivers problems… It’s a fairly simple task to re-solder the cracked joints on each of the five relays…”). 

 

 

It can be repaired but I don’t have the skill. 

 

 

The receiver itself is a sought after 5.1 surround sound amplifier. Unusually for AV receivers these days it has an RCA phono input for connecting a vinyl record player with a magnetic cartridge. Although it does not have HDMI inputs on the rear there are 4 optical connections and 5 S-Video inputs, with RCA connection for Phono, CD, Aux, DVD, TV, and two for other equipment. There are RCA sockets on the front, with an S-Video input and headphone socket. It has AM/FM capabilities, though these days these are online. The surround sound field options are very comprehensive and my memory is that the 5 channel output (to B&W speakers) is crisp and convincing. It’s a very clean, well cared for item. It includes the original remote control RM-LJ302 that functions as spec. It is a substantially constructed amplifier, in metal and weighs a ton, therefore I would ask that it be collected in person. Dimensions: 430 x 405 x 160.5. Weight 32 Kg.
