Hazard

In the wiring board of the audio unit (manufacturer: Sony Corporation, model: XR-5H911, XR-5H912) of the acoustic equipment, capacitors are damaged due to inappropriate manufacturing process of the board. If use continues in this state, a short circuit may occur between the capacitor terminals, causing excessive current to flow through the speaker, generating heat, and potentially resulting in fire.
