Like most other great audio components, your D/AC-2000 will start sounding its best after having music
played through it for at least 72 hours. This allows the materials of various internal parts to "form" so they
can better process the complexities of musical waveforms. While your unit will sound spectacular right out of
the carton, you will find it worthwhile to listen again after a few days. You will discover details in your music
you may not have guessed were there.
Your D/AC-2000 requires no routine maintenance. We do recommend that you remove and clean the various
connections once a year to remove any corrosion buildup on plugs and jacks. Make sure the power is turned
off before attempting this. Never use any abrasive cleaner on the front panel or top cover that may scratch or
disfigure them. Use only a soft cloth moistened with clear water or Windex to remove fingerprints.
If you suspect a problem with your unit, turn off your audio system and recheck all your connections. If one
channel is inoperative, the trouble may be caused by another component or a defective hookup cable. If only
one channel remains inoperative, try reversing the left and right cables to your preamplifier. If the same
channel stays out, it indicates the trouble could be other than your D/A converter. We suggest you contact
your authorized Parasound dealer or call Parasound Technical Services if you suspect a problem. We will
suggest other diagnostic tests you can easily perform that may save you a lot of trouble.
If we determine that your D/AC-2000 requires service, we will refer you to your local Authorized Parasound
Warranty Center. If you choose to return the unit to Parasound, we will give you a Return Authorization
Number. You will be asked to carefully pack the unit in its original carton and cardboard packing plus an
additional outer box for protection in transit. The Return Authorization number must be clearly marked on the
outer carton only. You should ship the unit by UPS with adequate insurance specified. You must include a
copy of your purchase receipt to validate your ownership.
Units that arrive without your specific Return Authorization number, without a suitable shipping carton or
with evidence of improper internal packing will be refused. We do not accept collect shipments. After repair
under warranty, the unit will be returned to you via prepaid UPS.
