I know this is way-off for this forum, but thought I'd give a shout and see if anybody out there knows how to fix home stereo power amps. I just bought a group of stereo components as-is, and all's well with all except an SAE I102 computer direct line integrated amp. The standby light goes on, but I can't get the display to go on, and can't get it to bypass the power section of the pre-out of the 5.1 Sherwood. My guess is that if I could get it out of standby mode, I'd be able to tinker more or buy a tuner to go with this.
Anybody have any knowledge :read: , suggestions as to what I could do or a shop in the area? The unit is worth about $150., but I'd rather have a working amp than a boat anchor, and, of course, money is always an issue. Can do barter for me detailing a car, or spend a modest amount to see if she's fixable.Hate to think it's only a $.29 diode. Micksnip
