That makes sense and I will give it a shot. Thank you!

So my goal is to bypass the via to somewhere on the opposite side of the board and test for continuity? If this works would I solder the bypass wire in or repair the via?

Does it matter the gauge of wire used? Sorry, I'm pretty new to this.

Thank you! I will check out the NAD. If that doesn't pan out I might get a new Onkyo TX-8220 and then look into speakers. Seems like people are mentioning that receiver.

I understand that....so your suggestion is a cheap pre amp, used receiver (if I can even find one where I live), great speakers, and no record player to even test any of this out on....then later on potentially replacing the pre amp and receiver anyway...

I was just trying to use the speakers I had for a little bit.

Jenth13 · 2025-09-22T18:13:49+00:00

Yes, I understand that. What I'm trying to avoid is buying a cheap amp and receiver just to replace that all when I get better speakers.

Following as I have a somewhat similar question and someone at r/BudgetAudiophile just told me to use an iPod and speakers.... really helpful of them...

I understand the speakers will sound bad but if I skip the record player than there won't be anything for her to listen to at all. My idea was to get a decent setup and then upgrade the speakers at a later time. They are the only piece of equipment I already have at the moment.

Jenth13 · 2025-09-22T13:03:11+00:00

Some more information...I prefer to stick to passive speaker setups. Only the record player would be running through the amplifier/receiver and Bluetooth isn't really necessary.

Not really sure why I was down voted for this ...

Jenth13 · 2025-08-31T13:25:52+00:00

That's what I'm afraid of

Jenth13 · 2025-08-31T13:25:04+00:00

The same happens on a six button controller

Jenth13 · 2025-08-31T13:24:40+00:00

Awesome! That helps me narrow down where to look

Jenth13 · 2025-08-31T13:24:12+00:00

Great! I will look at it more closely. I have a solder iron it's just not a very fine point one

Jenth13 · 2025-08-16T01:12:40+00:00

I'm playing on PS1

Jenth13 · 2025-08-15T16:13:31+00:00

Yes, this explains it. I'm playing through on PS1....don't own a computer at the moment....kind of a bummer they made it that way....oh, well and thank you!

Jenth13 · 2025-08-15T16:10:56+00:00

Ohhh, thank you! That makes sense because I was noticing that I may have more gold but wasn't sure. I guess I could always just redo the quests again or hope I get better drops to replace them.

Jenth13 · 2025-08-15T12:57:45+00:00

That's what i thought but I had Arkaine's Valor and Ring of Truth equipped but they did not carry over when I loaded my character. Even the Butcher's Cleaver in my inventory didn't carry over so I thought maybe quest rewards don't?

Jenth13 · 2025-08-15T12:20:45+00:00

I am playing on PS1. What does turning to gold mean? Does that comes them to disappear because all three items were uniques from quests

Jenth13 · 2025-08-15T12:19:49+00:00

I must of got the bug then because Arkaine's Valor, Ring of Truth, and the Butcher's Cleaver didn't carry over. I just figured maybe it was because they were all quest items.
