Unequal shereo channel output ?


Suddenly I'm getting unequal stereo channel output. I'm usng McIntosh MX130 and MC2205. I can hear the difference and can also see it on the meters. I can adjust the power amp channel gains to compensate but would prefer to solve the problem. I'm guessing it's a problem with the MX130. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the good troubleshooting advice. Yes all inputs are involved. Switched the MX to mono & output remained uneven. Swithced L & R inputs and the volume did not swap, and the meters went dead to boot. I guess I will now switch out the 2205 with another amp and see what happens. I just need to devise a way to make my cabling more accessible to facilitate cable switching.
Thank you Rodman. I guess I'll hook up my trusty old MC240 while the 2205 is in the shop. I use Analogique in New York City for my McIntosh service.
I guess one can assume that anything bought off of Ebay is going to require some service and $$$ sooner or later.
