Sorry to hear about the power supply, I had something similar happen with a Yamaha Surround-Sound system I recently bought, the microphone for the auto calibration feature was missing, a call to my local electrical store where I bought the product set in chain the motion of events which lead to me receiving a replacement microphone in the mail so perhaps you could contact the Amazon seller concerned and tell them what's happened.
I have the model of yamaha desktop Hi-Fi below the one you have, that is the TSX-130 and it has a built-in power supply, that is to say it has a power cord protruding from the rear left side. I can understand why Yamaha chose to use an external supply, firstly given the size of the unit, obviously if the unit doesn't have the supply built-in then Yamaha can put more electronics into the same size. seems lots of company's are opting for this approach, my HP 8500a+ printer has an external supply and its enormous! even bigger than the HP power supply that handles my HP Multi Media PC Notebook and that's getting to house-brick size. ======================================= The Techno-Chat E-Mail forum is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free To modify your subscription options, please visit for forum's dedicated web pages located at http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/techno-chat You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Techno-Chat group at either of the following websites: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/techno-chat/index.html Or: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> you may also subscribe to this list via RSS.
