Tag McLaren AV32R-DP legendary receiver - intermittent crackle

€40

When a watch company and a Formula 1 team get together to make audio hardware.

I loved this machine and it was the core of my system for 15 years. Its reputation proceeds itself, just have a read up of it. These days it should be used for audio only systems though, as it’s fallen behind the times for video processing.

It developed a crackle that I can’t track down. It’s very rare, maybe once a day or so, and I think it’s limited to TosLink optical inputs, but haven’t verified this. I replaced the TosLink ports but it didn’t go away.

Putting in a nominal price cause I want to give it to someone who’s fix it and give it a new life, not a messer who couldn’t care less about it.

Remote effectively doesn’t work, but hopefully it’s fixable too.
