Guess it would be cheaper to buy the DVR-60 , og DVR-70. I recall having seen good publicity on the dvr-60, but guess it would be hard to get your hands on that one. I have found the dvr-70 at the price of aprox. 200£. If you change the "motherboard", it will probebly brake down again, en just as expencive.

to rectify this problem you will have to replace few capacitors in the power supply circuit. Caps to replace are C16, C17, C21, C26, C27, C32, C47. Be very careful with two screws located under the heat sink. DO NOT MIX THEM WITH THE REST OF THE SCREWS.

You have defective caps on the power supply pcb which needs replaced.the top of the caps will look like they have been bubbled up..change all of those that look like that.

you have a defective power supply.there will be caps on power supply that will need to be changed,change the caps that looks like the tops are pushed out.unit should then work.

If cleaning the laser lens assy does not take care of the problem you will have a defective laser assy.

there will be bad caps on the power supply pcb assy,change those capactors that have been bubbled,tops pushed outward, and it should work.

one will do just fine if you've tried one and its not working try to refer to manual on how to set up in the receiver function menus and if the sub is powered by an external amp which most are

Hey I have a DVR50 which appears to have given up the ghost. Its probably beyond economical repair but I'm gonna try the service centre later today. If you have any trouble getting a new remote I'll gladly send you mine if I have to scrap the DVR50. I'd rather someone get something out of it. Just pay the postage and thats fine.

But I found this:

Its a swedish site for electronic repearments, Jamo DVR-50 have problems with heat also and capacitors in the power suply unit goes burned. So the instructions are:

1.Simptoms:Various strange error

2.Solution: Replace the capacitors in the power supply, especially C30 470μF/ 10V, C31 2200μF/ 10V and C16 1000μF/ 10V.

My service guy already told me that some electrical parts in the power supply unit are burned, he replace them and succeded to powerOn the unit but still jamo have problems staying powered on and now im going to tell him to replace those capacitors C30, C31 and C16, and i hope this will work.
