Greetings. I've got an extremely lightly used receiver that trips the fault code "check pow5" after 15 minutes of stereo use. Another forum told me it was an issue with a 5V power supply. The unit will remain powered up with no speakers connected for hours, engage speakers and it faults within 15 minutes, power light blinks. It will manually reset after some time, only to repeat the fault. It's a 2007 model, and has very few hours on it, all at quite low volume. It's in a local repair shop now, does anybody have any ideas on the diagnosis or repair? I'm feeling quite disgusted with Marantz, after spending $2100 on a higher end model to have it malfunction during gentle use. Thanks for any input.
