[QUOTE="mikelaubach, post: 7380528, member: 632557"] Well, if you are feeding it a signal (and you've already tried multiple source units), and you are getting no output, I cannot imagine a DVM/DMM showing anything on the output side. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] So something on the inside is bad. Unless you are missing something obvious, like: Gain knob bumped and turned so far that you essentially turned off the amp. Fuse blown somewhere that the power LED does not need, but the rest of the amp does. Etc. Still haven't mentioned what amp you have - what is the model number? There are more than one type of "1000W amp from Crunch." But at just over $100 ([URL="http://www.amazon.com/Crunch-PowerZone-P1000-1-Power-Amplifier/dp/tech-data/B001T9N4PO"]Amazon.com: Crunch PowerZone P1000.1 1000 Maxx Watt Power A/B Class Mono Amplifier: Electronics[/URL] if this is the one), it might not be worth it to have it repaired. You'd have to make that call. Even buying a $60 DVM is going to cost you nearly half the cost of a direct amp replacement... [/QUOTE]
