i unplugged my sony 700es amp today to give the denon amp a try and when plugged back in the sonys protection circuit kicked in,the led normally goes from red to green when everything's ok,mine stayed on red so somethings a miss,the amp still works ok but im not taking any chances so off to tim the repair wizard for a check up.

it feels like loosing an arm already! :lol:

Oh dear. Hope it's not too expensive to sort Jamie. (I know how much you need that speaker money ;))


My amp is also unwell and in the hospital at the moment. Must be some bug going about :rolleyes:.

Glad you have it sorted Jamie. Do you mind if I ask who Tim the repair Wizard is? I'm moving to the South Coast at some point this summer when this protracted house purchase gets completed and of course it's always great to have a Tim the repair Wizard somewhere close by!

Cheers

I don't know, perhaps I'm being overly sensitive here. I really don't mind being told that I'm not able to be given a contact for repairs etc. But for my post to be ignored comes across as a little rude. But please correct me if I'm wrong

Overly sensitive it was then Jamie ;).
Thanks for the reply. Yeah a bit out of the way but often worth it for a good one.

Cheers
