Hello,
I have a vintage Hitachi HTA 4000 receiver that I bought new a million years ago before going off to college ('80). I have been using this receiver in my shop with the same pair of Micro Acoustics speakers (re-coned) that I bought the same year. It is/was a simple, great sounding, budget system that cranked out many great tunes and memories through the years.
The other day, I went out to the shop, clicked on the power button only hear hear a "pop" and the receiver was dead. No lights no nothing.
I know it's hard to diagnose from a written description but was wondering if my description indicates an obvious problem (other then being dead) and if there are any easy fixes??
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
JB
