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?

knew it was the battery!!

Pete Buttigieg for me. This will be the end of that type of commentary...

Actually, curious how it can be the battery. What does that have to do with it powering up?🤔

Never mind, yes I do know how. I didn’t just read it or anything, it just surfaced now through the vast depths of my mind bogglingly stupendous intellect.🤓

 

I hope the tech wasn't serious! Amps with faulty protection circuits turn on all the time. Working correctly and having stereo outputs is a different matter.
