Hey everyone,
Altough not a stranger to vintage audio, I've been collecting for a year now and just picked up a free McIntosh Ma 6200. I received the unit from a gentleman in New York when I picked up a stereo console that he was giving away, which had this unit vertically mounted in it. After hauling the console home, I took the McIntosh out and was able to to power it on and get lights. It did not come with the original pre-out/main-in jumpers.
When I got it back to my home set-up I attached my speakers, an auxiliary 3.5mm to rca connection, as well as some RCA jumpers to the back of the unit. I tried to play audio through the aux port and am getting no sound from the unit whatsoever. I've tried all other inputs with the cord and same deal. The power guard gauge has not lit. Both fuses look okay. I'm not getting any sound whatsoever from the unit.
I'll be able to tinker with the unit if it's something that anyone think is simple enough for me to do on my own, and I would love some advice on what you think might be the next best course of action. If worse comes to worst, I will always be willing to have the unit serviced.
Thanks,
Alex
