Parasound Hca-800II will not come off of standby.

[curtiswhite]

I have a Parasound hca-800ii . And it will not come off of standby protect mode. I have no technical knowledge of how amps work. With that being said does anyone here have anything i can try? Or check with a meter Or what the problem might be. The only thing I can say is that the relay switch will not click over and it still gets gets warm when left on. I can post pics if asked .. Thanks everyone !

I know ill probably have to send this amp off for repair but I thought I would just check here first.

first thing is power it off remove all external wiring then try it back on .. if it stays in protection it needs more looking at .

I tried that and still nothing. And here is another question sorta related. I got 2 of these from cl for $140 about 3 months ago. And I was just wondering if it was worth spending alot of getting this fixed because the other one works but I have a feeling it might go out anytime now. ( its showing some of the same signs that the one went out did) . And I have a feeling I could spend a easy $400.00 for repair. And a nice emotiva is not that much more. All i am doing is powering a pair or polk rti12s. I used these in mono bridged when they were working. But for now I have one of the parasound powering the rti12s at 100x2

i don't know these amps ..but i did a quick search and the first one i saw was 80 us .. it may or may not be a simple fix ..i cant say .. i wouldn't think 400 to fix though ..
all i can say is make sure sure your speakers are the right ohms and you don't overdrive it .
