Default Depressing day

Received McIntosh C47, DOA out of the box, popping/hissing on all inputs with volume at 0 % level when trying digital audio , distorted with popping noises and volume level still at 0%

Friend from dealer which delivered preamplifier has came back , picked it up and will re-order new preamplifier.

Never thought that brand new preamplifier be DOA
