Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -

Any experts have an idea what’s going on? It would be a shame to chuck it out if it's just a simple fix.

I figure I could probably get a Tesco Value replacement for £5 in this day and age.

Most likeley thing to fail is anything that moves, volume control, switches, speakers etc. see if the fault changes when you operate them.
Caps could be the issue but moving parts fail most often.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

I disconnected the lower frequency turned it on a set the volume to near max, I heard the fan kick in and go into overdrive.
Seems alright now? Must have blown a few cobwebs out??Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous?
