Gold Note AP-7 stopped working- any advice?

past 1 year on a few forums iv been hearing break down issues with Gold Note stuff.

Bought a GN Amp that was a Demo PA-10 and was less than impressed and sold it and see the person who purchased it had it on the market also.

Yes, shorly after I bought the GN 6 years ago the remote function stopped working. I didn't want to send it all the way to italy so lived without the remote control, no big deal but also not ok for a hi fi amp.

Have you taken the cover off to see if there are fuses inside? I did not look at the schematic, but doubt this is a serious / expensive fix. Best wishes.
