So I've had this Aiwa AV-D67 home theater receiver for a number of years, and it has served me well. I recently replaced it in my main entertainment setup with a Vizio 5.1 system, but I'm still wanting to use this old system for another room in my home, sort of like a retro setup kind of thing.
It has a few issues though, mostly concerning the analog inputs, especially Phono. I'm hoping to fix it instead of getting a whole new receiver. I tried connecting a device just yesterday to the Phono input and it produced this loud high-pitched scratching noise any time sound was played, even at less than normal volume. The CD and Aux inputs sound quite degraded as well.
I know that digital is always better than analog, but the difference is way more noticeable than I think it should be. All the digital inputs result in pretty good sound, at least what I'm used to hearing.
If anybody has some insight on what could be causing this, I'd love to hear it. I'm pretty good with a soldering iron, and it would be awesome if I could fix it.
