Nice set. I love mine. Gotta love the built in DirecHD tuner! I guess you have a later one. What's the version number on the sticker behind the jacks on the left? The later sets are JX3, JX4, or YX5 (which is what mine is). The later the better.

Rumor is, they underspecked the capacitors on these sukkas (actual weight apx. 215 lbs. less optional stand), so just about every one of these is going to have some kind of breakdown eventually, which if not caught early, will take down major components like tuner card and power supply. Cuppa links to get you started fixing it:

Parts, outside of caps and diodes, will not be easy to come by so hopefully the owners and the shop got lazy about fixing a simple problem. G'luck!
