When you replace the vacuum tube of drive unit, be sure to ask the pur-
chased store or distributor. Disqualified vacuum tube may sometimes
cause breakdown.
No Sound
●
Is the plug of Power cable inserted into the wall socket ?
●
Is the power switch on ?
●
Does LED on the front panel light up ?
●
See that “LEVEL CONTROL” is not in “MUTE” position.
●
Check that nothing is wrong with connecting cable..
●
When connected to pre- or integrated amplifier, check that the amplifier
selector is set to connected source..
Sound is distorted
●
Is supply voltage in stipulated range ?
Turning up the volume too much distorts the sound. Listen with moder-
ate volume.
●
See that “LEVEL CONTROL” is not in “EXTERNAL” position. Excessive
input level can distort the sound.
●
When the preamplifier (integrated amplifier) connected to the
“PARALLEL OUT” is powered off, it is possible that the sound is distort-
ed because of the lowered impedance. In this case, simply disconnect
the cable. The SRM-T8000 does not affect other connected equipment
even when powered off.
Unbalanced sound between right and left channel
●
Are input signals all right ?
●
Level difference between channels can be corrected by adjusting double
-axis volume knobs independently.
●
When raising volume slowly from zero, it sometimes happens that
sound does not start to come out at the same time from left and right
channels. This is normal and not a failure.
●
Volume cannot be adjusted ? See that “LEVEL CONTROL” is not in
“EXTERNAL” position. Set it to “INTERNAL” position.
Hum noise is heard
●
Are input terminals connected correctly ? If the ground side of cable is
floated or in poor contact, hum noise may come out.
●
In case of buzzing hum noise connect GND terminal to the ground ter-
minal or to metal part of other equipment.
●
Connecting GND terminal to window aluminum sash is also effective.
●
Is there any poor contact ?
●
Is supply voltage in stipulated range ?
●
Because of the non-magnetic aluminum chassis hum noise can be in-
duced through connected equipment's. If equipment's with large-sized
transformer or microwave oven etc. are located near driver unit, keep
them away from the unit.
If you have other problems than described above, please contact your
dealer or our distributor in your country.
