How to safely visually inspect your audio gear and electronics

When buying or moving your vintage (and Pre-Owned) audio , its a good ideal to give them an inspection. I recommend inspect your gear annually as it ages. Failure to do so may result in other gear being damaged and a visual inspection can often catch problems before it makes things worse.

Warning

WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH THE INTERNAL ELECTRONICS AT ALL! THIS IS A VISUAL INSPECTION! KEEP ALL PETS AND CHILDREN AWAY! DANGER!

Perform all repairs and inspections at your own RISK. Consult a professional for repairs.

Equipment

Here we got an Gustard A20H and Pre-Amp that I've longed loved. We're giving it a visual inspection as I'm moving it from location to location. Its still relatively young, so I was not surprised to find it in amazing condition.

Safety Rules

  • Keep hands away from gear. Don't Touch!
  • Keep all PETS and Children away. Close the door, and don't let them in.
  • Replace Cover as soon as possible.
  • Consider a grounding strap on each wrist, encase of accidental contact the electric short will not cross your heart.
  • Wear shoes with rubber feat, no steal toes
  • Sit in chair that is not metal, and that is not grounded.
  • Use wooden Desk

General Inspection Rules

  • Don't perform if it voids warranty.
  • This is not 100% guarantee of failure, this just helps prevent failure.
