My vintage desktop Headroom 'Home' amp has stopped working and I was wondering if anyone here could either recommend someone who could service it for me or better yet suggest a DIY option? Here's a couple of pics and a description of the problem just in case you could offer some advice to a novice as to how to proceed. Thanks for having a look...
1- No sound comes through at all after powering it up - although the red power light does come on and I can hear the headphones connect with an audible electronic click/static when plugging them in.
2- I've attached a photo of the interior to see if I could easily spot the culprit but no luck. Maybe it's obvious to professionals?
3- I've tried both inputs sources on the back (there are two and all the gain switches etc. but nothing is coming through - just "dead air".
Wondering what the problem may be -- if I'm to troubleshoot it myself (being a novice who does own a multimeter at least - lol) or send it...somewhere?
I'd love to have it working again as I had so many wonderful listening years spent with it. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Many thanks.
Cheers!
