Put me on the list if you find someone to repair these babies.
Got 3 working and one on disabled list, might have to
resurrect my Duet and buy a battery for controller
If anyone cares to offer repair services for some of us die-hards
you will be respected as a SqueezeGod :-)
Cheers

Thanks for your help, wolfzell. I'll get a friend to help me out. So you
just switched C16 and C20?

Sorry, I haven't been around for a few days...
The two capacitors are clearly marked as C16 and C20 right by the
silkscreeen print on the circuit board, so you don't even need to look
at the schematic.
And yes, soldering needs to be done. And it isn't quite trivial as the
capacitors are SMD
My Squeezebox Classic is having the same issue. I'm looking at the
schematic for the SB2, but I don't see C16 or C20. Wolfzell, where did
you find them? And I'm guessing you had to do some soldering to get them
to work? If so, what did you use? (I'm totally new at this electronic
repair thing,
Hi,
at first I thought that my amplifier or my boxes were defect, but after
exchanging every component except the Squeezebox itself, I came to the
conclusion that the problem is in fact the Classic itself. The right
channel has almost no volume anymore compared to the left channel which
works
I've heard of output coupling capacitors failing on SB3/classics. I'll

That's exactly what I was looking for. Exchanged C16 and C20 five
minutes ago and now the Classic is playing again like new.
Thank you so much!!!
