Have a try at different volume levels. Some things show up more at one extreme more than the other.
Have a try with different signal sources. David

I would be inclined to leave it as it is if there are no obvious faults, I think sometimes you can just like the sound of some Hi-Fi equipment and not other.
I wont forget saving up for a JVC A-X3 Amplifier many years ago when it was a current model (I had not been working long) to replace a battered Leak stereo 30 that I had. Soon as I connected it up I thought it was dull and flat sounding and couldnt get on with it and in the end swapped back to the leak! Steve. |

The Goodmans OneTen shouldn’t sound dull or muffled at all.
It has quite a tight bass and the treble quality is very slightly crisp. |

Good advice as always in this fine forum. Will do a little more listening and testing before heating up the iron.

And we got a working signal meter!
Don't know how to thank signature Shuttle enough for sending one to me overseas. What a gentleman! ![]() The supplied 1k resistor works like a charm getting the meter into range.

Order is restored: the 0-5 scale from the original meter is moved to the replacement which had 0-10.
Couldn't have that, could we. Thanks for that reminder, Shuttle ![]() |

The writing's the right way up as well, now.
Nice work. David
