Troubleshooting

If you are having trouble with your amplifier, check the
following items.
no sound
Check the following:
The A28 amplifier is switched on.
<
The amplifier is not muted (i.e Mute is not shown
<
on the front-panel).
The selected source is generating audio (e.g., if CD
<
is selected, then the CD is playing).
The AV input is selected on the A28 instead of the
<
expected source. In this case, press
again to
AV
de-select the AV input.
The speaker outputs are enabled on the A28/P38,
<
as indicated by the lights above the
and/or
Sp1
buttons (as appropriate) being illuminated.
Sound cuts-out unexpectedly
If the temperature of the internal heatsink rises above
a safe level, then a thermal cut-out inside the amplifier
operates to protect the unit and the protection system
temporarily removes power to the speakers. The system
will reset itself as the heatsink cools down.
With two pairs of low-impedance speakers
<
connected (6
or less), overloads are more likely.
Overloading the amplifier may cause it to shut
down because of overheating.
Note that, due to the high output voltage from a
<
CD player, it is possible to drive your amplifier at
full power even though the volume is not set at
maximum. See page 11 to adjust the input trim of
a CD player or other input device.
amplifier does not switch back on
Both the amplifiers detailed in this handbook have a
protection mechanism which is activated if you switch
the unit on immediately after turning it off. If this
mechanism activates, wait 30 seconds before switching
the unit on again.
