Troubleshooting
If you experience a problem with this product, please take a moment
to review the following information before requesting service. If it still
does not operate correctly, contact the retailer where you purchased
the unit.
General
The unit does not turn on.
e
Check that the power cord is completely plugged into the
power outlet. If the outlet is switched, confirm that the switch
is in the ON position.
e
Connect a different electrical device to the outlet to confirm
that it is supplying power.
e
If the automatic power saving function has caused the unit to
enter standby, press the remote control STANDBY/ON button
to turn the unit on again.
The unit automatically turns off.
e
This is because the automatic power saving function turned
the unit off. Set the STANDBY/ON switch to STANDBY once
and then set it to ON again.
Change the automatic power saving setting if necessary
(page 27).
Remote control does not work.
e
Turn the main unit on (page 18).

If the batteries are exhausted, replace both of them with new
ones (page 11).

The remote control will not work if there are obstructions
between it and the main unit. Point the remote control at the
front panel of the unit from a distance of less than about 7 m
(23 ft) (page 11).
A television or other device is operating improperly.
e
The use of this unit’s remote control might cause some televi-
sions and other devices with wireless remote control functions
to operate incorrectly.
There is a humming noise.

If a connecting cable is near a power cord, fluorescent light or
similar cause of interference, increase the distance between
them as much as possible.
No sound is output.

MQA is an award-winning British technology that delivers the sound
of the original master recording. The master MQA file is fully authen-
ticated and is small enough to stream or download.
Visit mqa.co.uk for more information.
The VRDS-701 includes MQA technology, which enables you to play
back MQA audio files and streams, delivering the sound of the origi-
nal master recording.
‘MQA’ or ‘MQA.’ indicates that the product is decoding and playing
an MQA stream or file, and denotes provenance to ensure that the
sound is identical to that of the source material. “MQA.” indicates it is
playing an MQA Studio file, which has either been approved in the
studio by the artist/producer or has been verified by the copyright
owner.
o
When conducting MQA decoding of signals from COAXIAL or
OPTICAL sources, signals need to be received as bit-perfect. So,
use this function with CLOCK SYNC set to OFF unless the digital
audio output device and this unit are synchronized by the same
external clock, in which case set CLOCK SYNC set to ON. If set to
ON when the other digital output device is not clock synchro-
nized, audio skipping and dropouts could occur.

cal agents. Doing so could damage the surface.

the outlet before cleaning.
