Accuphase E-480 meter flicking


My was running great about a year after voltage conversion, till this morning  after I left it on overnight, the E480 meter start to flicking after playing music just for few mins, and does not make any more sound. I did turn it off, and on, change power cord, speaker cable it still does same thing it play for few mins, the meter start to flicking, and all sound disappear right after. any idea what may cause this issue?

I suspected your E480 voltage conversion was incorrect, can you provide images of the power board (front and back), maybe we can figure it out. 

 

@imhififan thank you following up with me again!

I switched my another amp in with same set up, and it did show warning message "Overcurrent" so I think it is the input impedance too low. guess I forget to match the dac, and amp after I upgraded my streaming DAC, finally it back to track, and works great again. 

It is more updated, and matched input impedance from high pass filter which my speaker requires to use, that fix the issue.
