In the middle of a great song -the Kink's "20th Century Man", the left channel on the 4002 gets louder than it should be and then, after about fifteen seconds, the channel goes dead. I rebuilt it when I first got it a couple years ago. It worked fine until today.:thumbsdn:
Strange thing is there was no warning and no smoke or foul odor came from the unit. The speaker wasn't harmed but my blood pressure rose a few points.
Thankfully I had a replacement for it - a nice vintage receiver - but I'm gonna miss that sweet little integrated. I know I'll fix it someday 'cuz I'm a glutton for punishment.
I think it happened because just yesterday I was boasting to a friend about how reliable these little amps are so Karma came and kicked me in the behind, leaving me with another SNAFU.:yes:
