Meitner Ma1 Not Powering Up

I've enjoyed this DAC for about 4 years now...I sat down to listen tonight and nada - dead as a door nail....no lights...no response to other chords...nothing.

Any ideas or guidance?

Thanks!

Most likely it is on the inside of the case where the AC cord connects. https://www.emmlabs.com/images/meitner/documents/MA-1_V2_Manual.pdf Hopefully that gets you started.....

About halfway down, the fuse is clearly shown on the board after the AC input receptacle on the rear of the unit. :)
