I have a MagniFi Max that I have connected to my TV via HDMI. I also use the Chromecast feature to listen to audio. Recently, I started having issues casting music to it. Typically, I would disconnect it and reconnect it and it would solve it but that stopped working. I decided to do a reset by holding the WiFi reset button until I hear the chimes. I was not able to reconnect it to the Google Home app. I would get the dreaded could not connect error. I tried resetting again but that isn't working anymore, I can hold it for over a minute and never hear a chime. The WiFi light isn't lit up. I also cannot listen to sound from my TV through HDMI, the power button or source button are non responsive. Short version, the electronic board appears to be fried. I'm a few months outside of my warranty so Polk doesn't seem to want to replace the unit. I looked for a repair center in my area (VT) without luck.
Is this model of soundbar repairable? Can the parts be obtained by a general customer? If not, any tips on finding a repair center?
Thanks!
