Burning smell


I have McIntosh 1.25 kw mono blocks. They are around 6 years old. One of them has started emitting an electrical burning smell when playing music. It doesn’t do it when just powered up, only when playing . Does anyone have a possible diagnosis of what component may be failing or what is happening ? Thanks

Sounds like possibly a transformer issue ,

and home owners insurance will not pay for anything unless your house caught on 🔥 fire.

Totally agree with contacting McIntosh--they may recommend that you send it to them to have it checked out.
