Default Mark Levinson Amp

Seems like I might have the same issues as many others with my amp popping and crackling.

I removed the fuse to shut it up for now. I am looking to remove it and either get it serviced or replace it but instructions to remove are scarce. I have searched the forums and still can't find any definitive answers on how to remove the amp.

Any insight will help. After I get this done, I'll do a write up with pics et al and hopefully that will help out others that have the same issues.

Thanks folks!

Dave,

Mine's got the same issue. Incidentally I also used same approach (removing the fuse). Great minds think alike?

I wanted to locate the amp so I can remove it and send to United Radio for repair. It'd be great if you or someone could please share some insight.

Is the amp mounted to the floor just under the back seat? I've not looked specifically for it, but I'm sure I've seen it from the boot when I've removed the tools tray to access the DVD navigator unit.

satz,

You're right that the DVD navigation unit is under the tools tray. The tricky part is the amp is not easily accessible from that space. I've posted my finding below, though basically I found it easier to access the amp from behind the rear seat. As the amp is located under a metal cover between the rear seat and the tool tray.

Thank you for your help,
