Sound seems unfocused
1. Play a CD of typical pop vocals and sit in front of your speakers at an equal distance from both (at least 8
feet away from each speaker). If the vocals seem to come from between the speakers, they are connected cor-
rectly. Alternatively, you can use the "barking dog" test from the Stereophile Test CD or a similar phase check
test from another test CD.
2. If the vocals seem to come from all around you, make sure that the cables between the amplifier(s) and your
speakers are connected properly, with the marked connector or cable connected to the positive (red or +) bind-
ing post on the amplifier, and the unmarked connector or cable connected to the negative (black or -) binding
post.
3. If you need to change the speaker cable connection, turn the amplifier off first. To avoid possible electrical
shock or damage to the amplifier, you must discharge the energy stored in the power supply. To discharge
the power supply, turn the power off with music playing. It may take up to a minute or so for the sound to
die out. After the sound dies out, it is OK to change or adjust the cables.
Sound comes from the wrong speaker
If left-channel sounds are coming from the right or vice-versa (i.e., the violins in an orchestral recording come
from the right speaker, not the left), check the cable connections between the source and the Pictor, the Pictor
and your amplifier, and the amplifier and your speakers. Make sure left-channel cables are connected to the
left channels of all components, and right to the right channels.
Only one speaker is working, or one speaker is playing a different piece of music
1. Check each cable between the Pictor and the source components. Make sure the left channel of the source
goes to the left input on the Pictor (which is on the right side, as you're looking at the back panel), and the
right channel to the right input (which is on the left side). On the back of the Pictor, the left and right inputs
are NOT next to each other. They are on opposite sides of the unit. In other words, the XLR and RCA input
numbers are 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1.
2. If you're listening to speakers, check to make sure both speaker cables are firmly connected.
3. If you're listening to headphones, check to make sure the headphone plug is pushed all the way into your
headphone amplifier's output jack. If you're using an adapter, make sure the headphone plug is fully inserted
into the adapter, that the adapter is fully inserted into the headphone jack, and that the connection between
the headphone cable and the headphones is secure.
Remote control does not work
1. Move the remote a few feet away to a different location and try again. The remote requires a clear line-of-
sight to the infrared detector on the Pictor's front panel.
2. If the remote still doesn't work, use a 7/64" allen wrench to remove the remote's battery compartment cov-
er, then replace the remote's CR2032 battery with a fresh battery and replace the cover.
Balance and volume controls do not function
1. If you are using the input configured for home theater bypass, this situation is normal—volume and bal-
ance controls do not function in this mode.
2. If you are not using an input configured for home theater bypass, you need to clear out the minimum and
maximum volume settings for the input you are using. Press the multifunction button labeled Setup on the
screen, then press the Default button.
