Hello folks!
I was recently given an MC2100 amp (S# 31W00) and a C26 pre-amp with several speakers as well.
I've read some of the posts regarding this amp; I've followed connection diagrams and connected a turntable and speakers.
Can get a peep out of them.
The pre-amp seems to power up just fine.
I understand that the amp doesn't have an "on" indicator and I've checked the primary fuse (it shows continuity).
When plugged in I don't hear any kind of humming or sound.
I turned it over and opened the back and sort of looked at things but not being electrically minded not sure what I should be looking at.
I didn't see any kind of burned or blackened circuitry; everything looked clean and no burnt smell either.
On one of the posts there is mention of a secondary fuse to the power transformer but I couldn't find it.
Is there someone trustworthy and reasonable in the San Antonio / Austin area that could look at it?
Maybe one of you can tell me how to hook it all up?
Remember: I can make a great sauce but don't know a transistor from a diode and what is this "caps" I keep reading about?
Thanks so much for your interest and time.
