I have a crown ce1000 and it has stopped working. The fault lights are a solid red color. When I plug it into any type of input device it will carry the audio signal but not amplify the sound. In simple terms I can hear whatever is playing over it (loud enough where I can easily talk over it), but I can't turn the sound up or down. It obviously needs to be repaired, but do any of you have any idea to what extent it needs to be repaired. The reason I ask because the repairs may cost more than the price of buying a new one. It's 50 dollars here just for someone to look at it for an hour + additional parts. What would you do? Thanks.

I believed you got 1 or 2 electrolytic capacitors were dry out so it missed 17V + or -- regulators in the preamp sections that why both side light are on If you go to 1 of the service center Crown in your town it would cost you between $100 to $200 I use Australian dollars

Unfortunately Crown amps are not the easiest to repair as they utilize multiple levels of amplification. Since you saw a flash, a resistor probable smoked, I would recommend that you bring this to an authorized service center.

timy check the speaker conections before condeming the amp

SOURCE: CROWN CE1000- slips into fault immediately after connection

if ur output power amp is defective u will have that problem - meaning the moment u connect load across it it will go into circuit protection to limit/stop excessive output current. make sure the speaker terminals are connected to +/- output terminals. in bridge mode use only channel 1 and that too with 4 ohms speaker only otherwise amp will clip. considering all connections are okay if it still clips when speaker is connected, u have a faulty power amp section. this the way ur amp is designed
