Hard to make an Subjective analysis (is that an oxymoron?) but my R4a
will nearly drive you back at loud volumes using the stock speaker.
Have you tried a different speaker?
Also..check and perhaps burnish the shorting contact at the earphone
jack on the front panel. a little corrosion there directly affects the
output to the speaker. How does it sound with low impedence
headphoness? It should be able to make your ears bleed :)
Look for the simple stuff first. Tube? check tube voltages to reveal
abnormaL operation.
Others will add to this I'm sure.

Hi Drake people
I have a R4A 11 tube receiver that I have referbed last year and it
works great.
I have put all new caps in, aligned and so forth.
I have never been around any other drakes except my TR-3 to compare it
to.
It has low volume. It is ok but not as loud as I think it should be
able to go.
Is this normal. It is about 1/3 the volume compared to my TR-3?
Thanks for any help
