PreSonus Eris E3.5 broke when turned on / teardown pictures

The power switch is glued in pretty good so I bought an inline iec c7/c8 switch and bypassed the internal switch.  Back in business.

Mine 2 caps looked exactly like that, I changed them, now the speakers work fine.

My issue was that the speakers where working, but making loud white noise and also dropping out when volume was turned up.

Haha, I'm joining the club.

In my case, the switch seems to be broken mechanically. It's stuck in the "on" position. I haven't yet taken the speaker apart, so no idea what happened.

I wonder if it's some standard type/size switch, or I'm out of luck if it has to be replaced. The rocker button itself looks quite standard, but the whole assembly I'm not sure.

Have you found anything to replace your switch with yet?

So one of the plastic "half-axle" tabs simply broke off.

Thankfully, this type of switch is very common. I'm gonna order some from here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33058689541.html

Will post later to confirm that it's a direct replacement (or not).
