One wouldn't turn on, the one that did turn on has no output out of channel 2. :wall:

And there's a ground loop in there. :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:

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 :bash:

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 :shock: 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.
