A wise man once told me; when everything else fails, use brute force. With that in mind, I went to work and tried brute but gently to pry the PCBs loose. The one on the left side wouldn't move at all, so I tried the other side. I started at the back end of the speaker, gently loosening the PCB.
Success!
As you can see it's a 60 pin connection going through the chassis to the other PCB. Clever Devialet!
The culprit of the mute Phantom was located. No wonder it went silent.
In high spirits by the success, I went to work on the left side. The spirits left, and the swearing returned. The PCB was fused to the chassis. I grabbed my unfusing tool seen in the right side of the picture, and within a minute the PCB was loose. Oh glory!
No wonder it was hard to get the PCB off the chassis. I haven't seen such an enormous thermal pad since, ehhh never.
Yet another PCB emerged. What could it be?
Stay tuned!
