what effect does fire/heat/soot on digital equiptment?


i had a fire outside my home theater room. the heat was sufficient to melt plastics and crack windows in the room. I had a Meridian system installed. the system was about 20 years old. Is there any value to testing the components?

Oh, I did replace all the Caps and most of the resisters about 5 years later.

I had a fire about thirty years ago and my speakers were toast, but all my ARC equipment was black and brown and worked just fine after a good cleaning. I still have the EC-2 crossover, but traded everything else over the years.

All the best.
