amp I bought 3 days ago not powering on - electrical engineer advice wanted


I bought a used Musical Fidelity A380 in good condition. Played it every day, worked fine. 

Today it did not turn on. There were no sign of failure yesterday. Could it be a fuse or power supply?

you think it’s easy to live with myself, 24/7?

That I couldn't say, but we all experience existential dread sometimes 😃

Consider taking it to George Meyer AV in LA.

They specialize in AV repair and did a great job replacing the capacitors in my power supply for a 35 year old Carver.

Hope that helps. 

Well, since I'm being ignored I withdraw my questions, your Honor.

I ask because if the wires coming off the power switch are utilizing connectors as opposed to being soldered, even someone as mind boggling inept as you can change the power switch. 😀

Those things are really inexpensive and worth a try before you take a hundreds of dollars loss. Or not. 

Gosh, I hope my advice isn't too inept.
