Audio aero capitole mk2 need help repairing

Dear Perryg

I am very sure that there is a voltage regulator problem in your area, as mine was doing the same, try hook up an avr and see how the avr says about your power line..(if you mentioned, this has been the problem since the unit was brand new).. or I am very sure Mr. Peter is able to help you.. :)

Jonathan-

did you find someone to repair your AA capitole ?

Dear jafant

Mine is perfectly in good Shape now, after I installed an AVR to stabilise the voltage. Another thing, i once forgot to switch it off after a listening session and it had been at stand by mode (no disc display ) for almost 4 days, i just found out That I did not shut it off at the end of my last listening session, just when i was about to listen to it again. Then, I Quickly turned it off and was afraid that it may had been spoiled ( the top chasis was sizling hot). However, on the contrary, since that occurrence, my AA has Never shut off by itself.

I am not a tech Kind of person, and i may not Know the correlation between the 4days burning method and how it is now back to normal again, or May be it is the AVR which Solved the problem, but i thought I just Share With everyone what i really experience..

Anyway, Thanks alot for all responses and enthusiasm on this topic...

Have a good weekend..everyone..

Best regards
Jon

Happy Listening
