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?

When I bought the {***] from cl, I had $800 IF I had X, I would spend X+100 on audio gear. I am not cheap, I am poor.
