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?

I was going to sleep well tonight, but now I have to worry again.

Just ignore him. Have a relaxing concoction, ask Madame Parkergetdean for a nice massage. It’s sleepy time! Just visualize AOC... oh, never mind. Everything’s gonna be all right!!
