First thing I always do at a new gig, is check each outlet with my tester, that I plug in. Grounded correctly, hot and neutral wired correctly? I had a gig last week where I needed 2 outlets, one was good, the other was hot/neutral reversed. Guess what I did? I killed the breaker, and pulled the outlet, and swapped wires.
What some place never know...geesh
Sorry to hear of your bump in the road, sure hope you get your amps back and running again. Warranty?

Sounds like an electrical problem. Hopefully the equipment is ok. I also like to test the wiring to make sure it is in good shape before plugging in my equipment. Here in WV most buildings and houses have bad wiring. A few weeks ago I did an outdoor wedding at a park. They said that they run a heavy wire out to the location and that they do this all the time. When I got there I looked over the 600' run. I have never seen anything like it before. There was a lot of bare wire and in spots both conductors were bare and they just spread them apart on the wet ground plus there was no ground

There was a mixture of old house wiring and extension cords in the run. They used some old 18g extension cord, the cheap ones that take 3 plugs on one end, cut in half and taped each end onto a length of house wiring to connect different segments in the run. The parks "test" was that a jigsaw powered on. Needles to say I ran that event off of a generator.
If you are lucky it was a low voltage situation.

Mine died last weekend too. Hit the power button, the lights blink, then it shuts down. Wee!

Wow, it's like a heat wave. Do these have an expiration date? My buddy's xti2000 lost a channel in May, too.
