Darn, the "Big Laff" has not arrived yet........ :tears:
yrly said:Odd that it would have no sound if the relay clicks but I've seen weirder things happen. Possibly defective part in the preamp, dirty or defective switch. This unit doesn't have any jumpers if I recall does it?

It was nothing special. Did you install your heatsink?vintagestereo said:Not sure. Ever since your R-2000 project, I've been getting into ways to control or minimize heat.

I haven't worked on it yet, just using a PC power switch center to turn it on and off for now. I've gotten an aversion to using the built in switches on many of my receivers anyways, as I've had more power switches fail than anything else on them. I pick up those PC power switch things whenever I find 'em cheap for this purpose.
I do remember that when I was looking at the switch it being an Alps model, so hopefully someone makes an equivalent replacment...LMK if you find a replacement!
Anybody out there have a service manual?
