I have a Marantz 2226 that I recently bought about a month ago, it had sat for many years unused until the owner takes it out of storage and gives it a de-oxit bath and adjusts the bias.
It has worked flawlessly for 2 weeks, but then all of a sudden sometimes the right and left channel start to not work, sometimes it's just right or left that drops out and sometimes it's both.
I contacted the seller and he agreed to look at it for me since I don't have any tools to do it myself.
He comes back with it saying it works flawlessly and figures that the soundcard that I'm using is giving the Marantz too much volts, but I checked the Asus website and it says that the soundcard outputs 2Vrms, isn't that common for CD players and such ?
My setup is- PC w/Asus Xonar ST soundcard or Technics SL-D303 w/AT120e>Marantz 2226B>AR 38S speakers.
