Re: 1953 ami e-120 jukebox no sound

Okay so I checked the volume control and the wires going to it had seen better days so I replaced and soldered new ones on . When I hooked the volume control back I turned it all the way up and I do get a little bit of sound coming out of the speaker. If I turn the volume control down in play mode t...

Re: 1953 ami e-120 jukebox no sound

Re: 1953 ami e-120 jukebox no sound

Okay I pulled out the pickup plug and in play mode I stuck a small screw driver in the holes and by do so it did not induce a hum or a buzz. I also looked at the tubes again . There are two 6sn7 tubes they were both lit and when I pulled the one closest to the pickup plug I didnt get a pop. The seco...

Re: 1953 ami e-120 jukebox no sound

I checked the tubes last night and all are lit up ,but while I was doing that I put it in play mode and checked the speaker wires and other wires going to the amp while I was doing that you could hear the speaker make noise as if it was amplified. I will do a test on the pickup plug to see if I get ...

Re: 1953 ami e-120 jukebox no sound

I have owned the jukebox for 10 years and havent had it serviced. I have done some maintenance on it myself and generally dont have any issues with it. Some of the original wires were replaced before I bought it as well. I am a collector of antique radios as well and try to educate myself on them wh...

The needle is still there and I followed the wire all the way down to the amp and it looks to be fine. When I purchased the jukebox ,it had some items replaced such as caps . It has not been restored. It has just had some things replaced over the years. I use it almost daily and was using it last ni...

I have a 1953 ami e-120 jukebox. I was using the jukebox last night and it was playing fine . When the jukebox grabbed the next selection the needle hit the record and I had no sound. I checked under the tone arm to see if a wire had come loose and that looks fine. I followed the wire down to the a...
