Re: [slim] Squeezebox Classic V3 dead?

2021-09-07 Thread slimmert


You guys were right. I placed a bid on a local second hand SBv3 with
power supply. Once I got it, I connected the "new" power supply to my
own SB, it powered on instantly. I have used my setup since 2007. I
never had any issue whatsoever. The reason I "acted drastically". :)

It happened to me yesterday on a duet. It was an original Logitech power
supply and its trie that I’ve replaced many of these over time. The most
robust from far seems to be the Boom 12V

Amen.

Today my bedroom Squeezebox Boom seemed to fail. Switched power supply.
Works like a charm. To me it has always been the darn power supplies. I
wonder how many people have assumed their squeezeboxen are "dead" and
acted drastically, when in fact it was just a failing power supply.

Failing power supplies is perhaps one of the most common causes of
"dead" Squeezeboxes, and it's definitely the right place to start, but
there is a little caveat when it comes to testing.
If you decide to test the power supply by measuring voltage, please note
that it must be connected to the Squeezebox. Measuring without anything
connected could give a perfectly good level, but once it has to drive
the Squeezebox it may buckle.

2021-09-03 Thread df77


There is a long discussion on possible issues over here:
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?109775-Squeezebox-Classic-(SB3)-Repair-Consideration,
that would be a good place to start. I would suggest to first check if
the power supply still provides sufficient power, and the next step
would be to check the internal wifi card - with a broken wifi card the
device will not properly start up (if the squeezebox is able to start
without the wifi card, then the wifi card has to be replaced or at least
the broken card has to be removed). If its neither the power supply nor
the wifi card, then most likely the capacitors have to be replaced, but
that's not that easy. Good luck!

Seems the SBv3 player name in the webgui was some kind of cache. The
player is no longer visible. My router doens't show the SBv3 either.

[slim] Squeezebox Classic V3 dead?

2021-09-02 Thread slimmert


My SB classic V3 has been my number one music player for the last 15
years. Connected with my 25 year old Sony Integrated Amp it never failed
on me. 

Untill today...

The display won't wake up. I power-cycled the unit, unplugged the power
adapter for more than 5 minutes before reconnecting. Nothing. I hear a
popping sounds when connecting the power with my amp powered on. So I
guess the power adaptor is working. 
I can see the SB connecting on LMS ("Woonkamer") (version Logitech Media
Server Versie: 8.1.1 - 1610364019 @ Thu Jan 14 06:27:19 CET 2021) and I
can play a tune without any errors occuring in the LMS log. 

35640

Whatever I do, there is no display and no music! This is bad. Any
ideas?! Is this the end of my SB classic!!??
