Frozen McIntosh MX135 😰


My MX135 froze  :(

All of a sudden I was unable to control the volume or change inputs.  At first, I'd turn it off and turn it back on with the red button and it would be good for a couple minutes.

Then, the red button would not turn off the unit, stopped so I turned it on and off with the black button.  That worked for awhile but not anymore.

Before I brought it to the shop, there were a bunch of @@@@@@@ on the screen.  Of course, the @@@@@@@ did not show up when I brought it in.

It has been in the shop for over a week.  The repair shop regularly repairs McIntosh but is stumped on this one.  He mentioned a system reboot, I think.  He's made calls into McIntosh.

Has anyone experience this problem and how was remedied?  I'd appreciate any input.

I'm having the same problem with My MX135
Did you get yours back? 
If yes may I asked, what did  it cost to Fix
Hi Everybody...

I was wondering if a copy of or the SB Number might be available. We do not have this information in the Database and our Service Department isn't able to provide one. Either eMail or scan or USPS would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
