Hi guys,
You may or may not be aware that Onkyo have recalled this model, and will repair any faults outside of warranty, if you have an affected unit.
Link: http://www.uk.onkyo.com/en/product-recall-80305.html
Essentially, my one stopped outputting audio 2 months after the 2 year warranty, and from what I've read online the HDMI board is susceptible to overheating and breaking due to the high voltage.
Anyway, Onkyo are repairing it FOC, but I have a dilemma.. how do I get the thing back to the repair centre without the original packaging? I could wrap it in 20 layers of bubble wrap and find a box suitable, but surely there are better alternatives baring in mind the amp weighs a tonne!
tl;dr Just a heads up and after some packing advice
