This one has no sound other than occasionally a pop or brief distorted output. The cust says it happened before, another servicer changed the board (looks like the small signal board was replaced) and it worked for a year now failed again. I have searched for tips on this problem but found none. Will need the schematic to troubleshoot this one. Anyone have the manual that you could upload or email? Any suggestions? If it is just a bad output IC I can figure that out w/o the schematic, but with repeated failure I'd like to know more about the circuit, supplies, etc. Also, the other idiot that serviced it did a sloppy job aligning it after changing the board. All of the supplies that I could identify seem about right and stable. About 18v to the audio output. I have not duplicated the remote problem. That might be just the remote or batteries and unrelated. All other functions appear to be ok. Thanks.
