A friend of mine passed recently and willed to me some very nice equipment. One piece, the SS Citation 22, was always a favorite of mine when we got together to listen to the classics.
It's been several years since I received the amp, and the other day I decided I would get it out to see what it sounded like in my own system. After a careful examination, owner's manual review, and set up, I turned it on and it played for a while then just shut down. No panel lights, no smoke, no nothing.
I unplugged it, took it out of the system, and tried to find an obvious problem. I suspected a fuse (couldn't find one), but other Web information I've read seems more ominous.
When I put a meter on the power cord plug, I found that there's conductivity regardless of the on-off switch setting. This may not mean anything because I'm a relative idiot about all things electrical.
Any thoughts from the H-K crowd here? Thanks, as always.
