Don't know that you can actually reset this unit like the new digital receivers. It does have protection circuitry that will shut the unit down in case speaker wires are shorted or if speaker impedance is less than the indicated rated impedance of the amp. do the following:
1. Turn off power and unplug from wall.
2. Check all connections and correct if needed.
3. Turn back on after 1-2 minutes.
If unit is still in protect mode you may want to unplug everything from the unit and then power back up to see if the problem is internal or external. If it powers up correctly then the problem is external. Power back down and plug in one external item at a time and power back up between connecting each item to see which item causes the receiver to go into protection mode.
If problem seems to be internal I'd recommend taking to an electronics repair shop if you aren't comfortable with taking apart to check fuses, terminations, etc. There may be a 5-amp fuse in the power plug head also.

SOURCE: My Technics sa GX350 tuner

Hi mate, had the same problem with my amp.. Take the top off and there is a fan at the back, there are 2 piece's of copper flat wire that touch together and these do not touch anymore so when its turned up or the bass gets stronger it cuts off as the fan should kick in at this point. If you can get these to touch again (bend them) then the problem will be gone!! I have had to do this a few times now though so this is not a long term fix.. I may try soldering!

Safe to use 4 speaker with Technics Receiver?

The best thing to do is place a VOM meter to confirm that there are 6 ohm speakers

Compatibilty

If what you say is true, you should be fine.
Where you get into trouble is having an amp of higher power than your speakers. That means you will likely blow your speakers.

Technics receiver SA-GX350 Receiver Manual states to be only used with 8 ohms speakers. I've used 6ohm speakers with this receiver for over 20 years. Please explain is it safe to do so?

its not safe but manageable.if the speaker impedance is too low, the amplifier will tend to overheat and more power is used up in the amplifier than is delivered to the speaker. Too many speakers on a solid state amp can burn up the power output section.

My Technics sa GX350 tuner keeps going into overload. It's the only thing plugged in.

AV stereo rec SA-GX550 GX350 Shuts down while operating. Resumes playing after random interval. Does not pass 110VAC to ancillary equipment through AC plug in back of console. Please advise.

Technics? check for bad solder connections on the voltage regulators attached to the heatsink. some models have an acess panel you can cut out on the bottom of the receiver. you will have to find a screw or two to re-attach the panel. it could also be a problem with the cooling fan.

Good Luck

Technics SA-GX350 Nonfunctional - Click, then nothing.

Please update the initial posting and continue the diagnosis there. The initial response is repeated below.

Thanks,

Initial response:

There could be a number of reasons for this. It woyld help if you could indicate what resistors you changed. The circuit designation should be marked on the PC board. Please post those here and I'll look further and provide some possible solutions.

Thanks,
