Technics SU-G70 clicks but doesn't display or sound

I turn on the amp (Technics SU-G70) and it clicks as though the power is turned on (and later you're able to return to feel that the amp is warm). However, the display is blank and there is no sound output. In the past, I could just slap the side and it would come on. After hitting it, the amp would either go back to blank after a few moments or it would stay on. It was hit-or-miss, no pun intended. Now, it seems no amount or strength of hitting will get it to come on. Please help. I have my first HDTV coming in a couple of days and I want to have at least something to hook-up. :-) Thanks.

I just got mine back from repair shop, same symtoms, they replaced power supply, in your case it was hit and miss for a while, so maybe bad power supply connections inside.

I have a Technics SA-AX6 the front display won’t turn on or doesn’t turn on

If the front panel display on your Technics SA-AX6 is not turning on even though you have replaced the display board and verified that the ribbon cable is not broken, there may be an issue with the power supply or the main control board. It's possible that a component on one of these boards has failed, preventing the display from receiving power or a signal. You may need to take the receiver to a professional repair shop for further diagnosis and repair.

Technics separates issue?

That sounds suspiciously like an issue with speaker connections rather than amp output!

There are manuals and specs here including a Service Manual

Technics Amplifier SU-V4

The clicking sound will be a relay for the protection circuit. That could be faulty, but first check out the main devices on the main amp section. Those attached to the big heat sink. If you see a single IC amp that could well be faulty.

Or can you give me the part number of the IC so I can determine the pin configuration. Good day and best regards.

Technics SU-V2 keeps cutting out

An amp will cut out if the output protection circuit kicks in. This circuit compares output power against the preset level. Each channel has it's own, independent protector. There are calculations that can be done, but for a novice the rule of thumb is to "never use a speaker with a power rating less than the amp AND a lower impedance than stated". Typically using a 4 ohm load on a 8 ohm system is inviting disaster. Even if the system does not become a smoke generator, you might notice that though "louder", the sound quality is deteriorated. Many "audiophiles" often hook up some combinations of speakers to have "surround" without really understanding that the collective impedance actually changes (generally lowers).
