This is my first post, so I will do my best...
I have a Vietnam era Sansui 5000A receiver. I wanted this thing so badly. Purchased it from the original owner with all the manuals about 8 months ago. It sounds great. I love it and have had no issues with it. I don’t get to listen to it very often. I have used it maybe 10 times since I bought it. I let my 4 year old get some dance practice in with it last week and it sounded great...fast forward to tonight. I decided to switch it from a small table to a stereo cabinet. Moved it maybe 3 feet. Tried to be gentle. I have moved it once before with no issues. Went to turn her on and nothing. I press the power button and nothing happens. I thought the switch used to stick in place when I pushed it in (?) now it doesn’t, but I could be wrong, maybe I am remembering wrong? I don’t know if moving it had anything to do with it or not. I don’t see why it would. I am in Georgia and we have been having lots of thunderstorms and it is cold and damp in the house. I am running a dehumidifier to try and dry the house out a bit. Any ideas? Did my switch crap out on me maybe or could it be something more serious? I am a female and not the most electronic savvy, but probably quite a bit more than the average chic. I grew up with an audiophile dad, so a little is in my blood. Give it to me straight.
