long-shot here...but my SX3200 lost a channel the other week, but it appears to only be in input stage - no blown fuses, still turns on and the 2nd channel still goes fine.
Going to see if Bridge Mode still works, but would be nice to know how to sort the funky channel for future use.
I replaced both rails recently, and it hasn't been thrashed, so thinking it must be something more sensitive on the input stage...
any help greatly appreciated!

seems more likely to be an open connection i'd inspect the solder joints around the input connector.
if one channel doesn't see signal how is the amp going to function in bridge mode?

Feed a signal (sinus wave) to the input and measure from the ouput to the input in the signal path.
A year or so late, but if at one time you replaced the rails, then you would have unplugged the leads to the front panel attenuators. I would check and resecure these plugs.
Second, I would check input terminals and reflow the solder on the input boards and input connections, May as well do the output terminals at the same time.
Been some time, so may as well tell us if you found the problem🙂) I got four ot them myself, but mine are all fine. One had one channel less from the factory, but this was a simple plug for the attenuators not being plugged in.

Hey team - sorry I forgot to come back and post what the issue was - it was just the volume pot in the end! Tapping it killed the signal on and off...replaced them both and it's been going strong ever since.

Good to hear. Having owned these and had the covers off, I thought it had to be something to do with the attenuators. As soon as they are out of the path you will lose a channel.
