    Hi folks

    wondered if someone could help? ive had a Rotel RX203 handed down to me, it worked for years then i moved house and all of a sudden, nothing! it powers up ok but i was annoyed to hook everything up and get no sound at all! ive tried headphones..nothing..Turntable..nothing, CD..nothing...Aux/Phono again nothing, even the radio isnt making the signal needled move about, speaker fuses arent blown and none of the 3 inside are blown, all wiring, although dusty, is still all connected to its connections, ive taken pics if anyone can assist?
    thanks

    Yup, check this or an EQ loop button, or loose preamp/power amp jumpers on the rear panel.

    haha, don't like seeing the reaper! TM isnt the prob, i opened it up, there was decades of dust but nothing looked blown, the speaker fuses are also ok
    i already have a Sony AV surround system so can use this but it doesnt have a preamp like the old days and the Rotel was just so great for something 40 years old
    reluctant to bin it if its a simple fix, any other ideas? would a HIFI shop be able to fix?
