Bob, how are you?. I was doing some research today in the tuner section, and came upon a post about a guys Pio. TX9100 cutting out on one, then both chs. You responded that you had a similar problem w/ your TX9500. You said that replacing a bad cap in the output stage corrected your problem. I also have a TX9500, my problem is not a total ch. drop, but a total loss of bass in the rt ch. I was curious if maybe this was what your problem was, and if you thought I may have a bad cap in my rt. ch. output stage. My TX9500 picks up stations wonderfully, (near and far) and sounds good except for just getting the highs only in the rt. ch. If loss of bass was not the problem please excuse me, but I'm kinda grasping at straws at this point. Thank you and I hope you have a safe and prosperous happy new year. CC
