My Sonicview 360 Premier won't start up

[ECruzBUD]

Hi Folks,


My Sonicview 360 Premiere won't start up when I plug in the outliet.

When I plug in the SV-360 Premiere, on the front panel it looks like
the displays flickering every second.

I showed it to my 20 years old nephew, and he thinks it must be
a power supply inside that needed to be replace????

On the front panel, when the displays flicking or flashes, the 3 digit numbers
looks like either in 3 0s or 3 8s.

So, is anyone familar to this problem???
When plug in the SV-360 Premier, on the front panel, the displays
of both the channel part and the blue logo of "Sonicview", flickering,
or flashes in every second.

If you think this sounds like more of the power supply, then where
can I get a replacement one??? And how much does it cost???
I know that Sonicview USA wouldn't help, because I'd e-mail them
before for other problem, and they haven't respond to my query.
That was 2 or 3 years ago.

Anyone here can help??? Would appreciate to know.

It's cost too much to have it repair by sending it to "FTA Repairs"
in New Jersey. And I'm from Seattle, Washington, U.S.A.

Help???

Thank you,
Eugene

Good luck finding a replacement power supply**. Could you repair yourself?? Take a look inside for swollen capacitors. Bad caps are a common failure. Alternatively -
'bay prices for that receiver are 'up there'. For about the same you could get the microHD, a much better receiver, with support right here. There's a section devoted to it.
**think there was another thread recently which 'looked' to be PS problems in the same model.
When this S9 'gives up the ghost' it's going to be a geosatpro receiver replacing it.

Here is that other Sonicview thread:

...but I agree with Fat Air above: consider a newer/better receiver.
We even have a thread with best price on the microHD, if you go that way.
