LampizatOr- ATLANTIC2 TRP  DAC Manual

I PLUGGED EVERYTHING BUT I GET NO SOUND

Quick check list: 

Is the voltage at the back switch selected to your country? 

Is AC power switch at the back thrown to ON and red lamp illuminated? 

Is ring on the front illuminated ? 

Are tubes warm to touch after min. 1 minute ? Glowing in the darkness ? 

Is the ring button pressed in (meaning USB input engaged in non-Volume Control DACs) 

Is the ring button OUT - meaning SPDIF input engaged - in non-VOLUME CONTROL 
DACs  

In DACs with more than one SPDIF input (also Toslink, BNC, AESEBU) is the rear panel’s 
toggle switch pointing towards the right input? 

Are analog RCA cables leading to the amp connected to OUTPUT sockets, and NOT the 
preamp input sockets (in Vol-CTRL DACs?) 

Is Amplifier powered, connected, input selected corectly, un-muted, with speakers 
connected ? 

If you use a computer with USB connection - is the driver recognized ? Is Windows driver 
installed (Amanero Combo384?) 

Is the computer’s output device properly defined to be AMANERO COMBO and not 
speakers, SPDIF, Toslink or Intel? 

Is the computer’s digital volume control set to maximum ? 

Is the USB cable not of USB1.0 type, not longer than 2 m and not with ferrite rings on it? 

In Vol-CTRL DAC is the mute dis-engaged (see the screen) and is volume NOT on -63 DB 
but at least on -20dB?  Is the input selected according tpo display - on proper input ?
