Cambridge Azur 851A Problem! Help!!

I just sold my 851 and the buyer sent me a video of the toggle on/off switch on the back is in the "ON" position and won't stay in the "Off" position. B ut it is powered "ON". I never had a problem with it before. What could it be??It doesn't make sense.. I doesn't have any speakers hooked up to it because he says" He's in between speakers right now.????

The unit stays pretty warm (almost hot) if the rocker switch isn’t turned off.  Is that normal?

Sometimes the unit sits for several days, up to and including a week not being used.

I have a 651A integrated and it remains cold when not powered and the rear panel switch is on.  So, I think you have a problem.

You can plug the 851A to a kill-a-watt and see if the standby consumption is less than 0.5 watt.
