troubleshooting

If you are having trouble with your amplifier, check the
following items.
no sound
Check the following:
Both the A38 and (if applicable) P38 power-
<
amplifiers are switched on.
The amplifier is not muted (indicated on the A38
<
by Muted being 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 not selected on the A38
<
(indicated by the light above the
button being
AV
illuminated), instead of the expected source. In
this case, press
again to de-select the AV input.
AV
The speaker outputs are enabled on the A38/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. During this time, the power
indicator on the front panel flashes 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
<
Ω
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.
