Problem with Primare I32 Amp

I recently bought a Primare I32 integrated amp from an Audiogon seller.  It worked great for a few months, but now I cannot get it to produce any sound at all.  
The warm-up sequence of the amp is normal, and I have checked everything I can think of from cables to source and nothing works.  
I had been listening to it last night without any issues but this morning when I went to listen to some music the sound was silent.  
Anyone have suggestions for me?  I did send emails to Primare and their U.S. distributor so hopefully I will hear back soon.  
Thanks!

Have you checked for blown fuse(s)?

I found a fuse on the board of the amp, which I checked visually and it looked fine.  I thought I should probably test it but haven't done so yet.  The fuse at the power plug should be fine since the amp powers up just fine.  Any other fuses I should look for?  It always makes me nervous to poke around inside of these things since I don't know what I'm doing.

Sorry snackeyp don’t have anything more for you other than to urge you to pull that board fuse and use a multimeter to check continuity across it. Good luck figuring things out.  I assume you've unplugged the unit for a while and tried to "reboot" it?
