After reading through some of these posts, I realize any answer I get may be above my head, but I'm hoping my dad will be able to cipher for me.
I was recently given an R212R (which I was told works fine). It power on - all the tubes glow, but I get no sound. The fuse is fine (hence the glowing). We traced power all the way to the transformer behind the main circuit board (removed the casing to get to it). We have power going in, but nothing coming out.
I've never even heard a speaker crackle.
Do you think the transformer is bad? Or is there something that can be done to test it? OR... can the output even be tested with a standard volt meter? I was hoping one of you guys would say, "Aww... nah, the problem is blah..."
If it's transformer... is that something I can pick up on e-bay and install myself? It was a gift, so I have very few specs on this thing, although I did pick up a schematic online. Thanks guys for any input.
