Was hoping someone on this forum could comment on an issue I have been having with my C2200.
I turned on the preamp a few days ago and there is very little sound (maybe 1%) coming thru speakers. Full volume on preamp results in barely audible volume.
Have verified amp/amps are performing fine. The symptom reminds me of the days when my little brother would accidentally press the tape output loop switch, similar sound.
Same issue thru the headphone jack. Volume on left channel noticeably stronger as well.
I have performed restart of unit and reset of unit. All tubes changed this week. All connections checked.
All switches light up and "seem" to be working correctly. Spoke to McIntosh service (very generous with his time) and he was also unaware of such issue.
This issue first presented itself about 5 months ago and was resolved a day later when unit was turned on and inexplicably starting working correctly.
Any help appreciated. Thank You.
