Hey there fellas, new guy here. Really enjoying browsing around the forums, very informative!
My AT-100 has been collecting dust for about three years and has only been used a minimal amount of times since. It was working fine until I let my roommate use it for practice. If I change the fuse out in the rear and turn standby off, the fuse immediately blows and the volume of all the channels become barely audible.
So I opened it up and did some snooping:
The big blocky hunk on the left is what we're looking at on the previous photo.
After doing some reading, it seems that the power supply is susceptible to failure, and I'm guessing that's what it is (til somebody slaps me on the wrist and says "NO!" )
I have a lot of experience in soldering and wiring but very little experience in schematics, terminology, and potential dangers. Is this something I can be walked through and do myself or should I leave it to an expert?
Thank you in advance. Cheers!
