anyone else have a problem with their
E5 suddenly stop working within a month?
I really can't think what happened to make this happen! I didn't drop it nor run any strong signals thru it. It was working just fine while I was in school, packed it up in my bag to drive home, then when I tried turning it on again, no sound was passing thru it!
-First of all, it seems to turn on/off just fine (or so I assume, by the power light).
-To rule out dead battery, tried playing with it plugged it in, but still no good
-I swapped line out cables to rule out possible damage there
-I tried connecting my earphones directly to my source, and they're both fine too
Having ruled out everything else besides the amp itself, I started wondering if there was anything I might've done to it (but maybe didn't realize at the time). I'm really really certain I didn't drop it or let my bag hit anything, so the only thing the came to mind was possibly damaging the input jacks? I usually plug both ends of the 3.5mm cable into the E5 (input + headphone) to keep it tidy in my bag, so I wondered if I had forced it in too much and caused something to dislodge... this occurring would be really unlike me, but I figured maybe it's possible if the build quality was low. Anyways, I popped it open to see if there was anything loose or dislodged, but nothing stood out to me as so. I tested it again while everything was open, but still no go, so I just put it back together again.
