I have a new Kiseki Purple Heart that may have lost one channel in transportation.
How do you know it lost one channel without playing it? Best way to test is swap the leads from one channel to other and play it for testing, if the dead channel follow the swap you know there’s a dead channel.
If you want to use an ohmmeter for testing continuity, better add a 100kΩ resistor in series to prevent damage to the coil of a low output mc cart!
