1 channel quiet in a multiamp


Hi everyone,
i have a Marantz MM9000 5 channel amp that was running fine until just the other day. one of the channels has become significantly quieter than the rest. i have checked to make sure i had the gains turned up the same, and i have tried changing the inputs from the pre to make sure it wasn't a cable/speaker/pre problem.

anyone have any ideas what may be the cause? there is still sound coming out of that channel, but it is much quieter.

thanks.
igk

if you've eliminated cables and other components and verified it's one channel in the amp, the next thing I'd check for is fuses. I'm not familiar with your amp, but many that I am have rail fuses inside the case - usually on the board. If yours doesn't have fuse holders on the outside, check inside. And even if it does and they check out I'd still check inside before calling for service.
