The stereo from my parents did not work properly. Some times one loud speaker did not work so you could hear the sound only on the left or on the right side. It is quite a while ago this curious behaviour started. My father said to me lets open this thing and lets have a look otherwise we through it away. After we dissassembled the whole device. I started looking for a defect part. After a short time I noticed a few cold solder connection. I took the soldering iron and made this connection new. After reassemble the apparat, you will not believe it, it is working properly. I know good and high quality devices are hard to find especially with the strong competition today. No wonder money is safed everywhere. As it look like the conections on the print where made by machine automatically, but all the cables and other connection to the main platine where soldered by hand. And it looks like this people who soldered it had no clue how to do it…. Besides the stereo it is no long ago I fixed a toaster and a sauna heat controller (of our sauna) on the same way. Only by solder this joint again.
