Reactor does not power up.
•
Is the power cord firmly inserted into the AC input socket?
•
Is the power cord firmly plugged into a working electrical outlet?
•
Is the fuse blown?
The Reactor powers up but produces no sound.
•
Is the reactor FR
really
turned on? (“Tubes glow and fan blows.”)
•
Is the standby switch also set to the “On” position?
•
Is the output level control on your source device turned up?
•
Is there a problem with your audio connector cable?
•
Is the speaker switch set to ON? If the speaker switch is set to OFF,
an external 8 ohm speaker cab must be connected to the speaker
jack. If the switch is set to Ext. Amp, an external amplifier must be
used to power the internal speaker. Is the level control of the
attached external device turned up?
IMPORTANT!
Operating the power amp in absence of a load on the
output transformer can cause serious damage and may void your
warranty. Do not operate the amp with the internal speaker OFF
unless there is an external 8 ohm cab is connected. Do not operate
the amp while an external amp is being used to power the internal
speaker.
