Cry for Help! DEAD Mark Levinson 335
Unless I can get good advice on this, it may be a total write-off...A 335 GOING TO THE DUMP!
The symptoms: doesn't power up - hums and shuts down within 2 secs
The problem: something in one of the voltage gain boards (the smaller boards on top) - the other, good board does let the amp work perfectly on either one channel (swapping sides via an adaptor cable)
The bigger problem: no service center here in New Zealand, too heavy to ship to the USA, no schematics available! And I'm not an electronics technician. I can solder and put in new components, though.
So I'm hoping someone has had the same problem and was able to fix it, and tell me how to pinpoint the faulty component(s), any helpful suggestions are very highly appreciated!
Thanks everyone for your interest.
