Hi gang, This VCR has sound clipping in hi-fi mode. High dynamic passages seem to trigger the heads to cutoff and the linear head on the a/c assembly takes over. The head envelopes look normal and is not a tracking problem. All of the audio circuitry is under the transport assembly and is going to be difficult to troubleshoot. Tips, if any, please.
