The Yamaha RX-V800 Home Theatre Receiver was close to the flagship of Yamaha's Fleet when released in 2000. In this vid I show you how to repair the rotary encoder (volume control). I also do a detailed review. Rotary encoder Yamaha part number is: 'V6322700' 'REB161 9X7 PVB'

It's a great receiver but the volume for the turntable seems to be low. I also have a Yamaha RX-V795A that won't power up. Any ideas why?

Yes, the internal pre-amplifier for the moving magnet cartridges has pretty low gain.

@@pescado99 I'm using a audio-technica at-lp120xbt-usb, would you suggest anything to give it a boost ?
