McIntosh MC 2150 Fried


MC 2150 Amp. I made the foolish mistake of unplugging interconnects from amp and did turn it off first. There was an obvious noise when I removed a cable. I took notice and it crossed my mind that this could be bad. Right channel is now not playing music, just some low level hiss through speaker. I tested both channels to be sure it wasn’t a speaker which it is not. I would greatly appreciate any advice on what may be damaged and what I should expect on the cost of the repairs. There are a couple of McIntosh repair options for me locally, but, would like to have some level of knowledge on most probable needed repairs before dealing with them.

Check the fuses. Start by looking at the back panel. Then remove the top cover and follow the wires that go to the power cord and see if that leads you more fuses. You need to check inside and out because there can be more than 1 fuse.

If you don't find any bad fuses on your amp, check the fuses in your preamp the same way. Its possible the preamp is damaged and not the amp.
