Yacht Boy 400 -- No Reverse-polarity Protection?

I did something careless (stupid) and plugged the wrong AC adapter into
my YB 400. The polarity wasn't right, and now it's dead. The digital
display and tuner still seem to work, but there's no sound. I've made
this mistake before with other devices, with no harm done. So does
anyone know, does the YB 400 not have this protection? Or clues to what
it was I fried?
