Crap! Think I fried one of my channels

I have a 4 ch. Orion I bought new a few years back. The 2nd channel is down to very low volume compared to the other three. I had it too confined and overheated it I'm sure.
I guess my question is... Is it just as much to fix one generally as it is to just buy another one?

Thanks guys

Turn the gain pot back and forth a bunch of times with the system turned off. Then put it back where it was and try listening to it again. If you're lucky the pot's surface is just dirty and giving it some exercise will wipe it clean.
