Are you saying you are planning to troubleshoot it yourself and repair it yourself? If the answer is No, then box it up and send it in because something is shorted and drawing to much current. If yes, are you an EE or electronics tech? If no, again box it up and send it in before you damage something else or a trace burns open acting like a fuse. It is one thing if a fuse blows and you replace it and all is well after that. If the original fuse blew, was replaced and that blew, then replaced it again and it blew, your unit needs repaired. The fuse is the consumer replaceable part unless you have the know how and experience to work on electronic equipment. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Wood Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1, Vandersteen V2W Subwoofer Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Squeezebox BOOM Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81822 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
