Ayre Acoustics MX-R Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
If the amplifier is linked to an
AyreLink-equipped preamplifier with an
alpha-numeric display, restoring operation of the
amplifier will clear any messages displayed on the
front panel of the preamplifier. (Messages may
also be cleared by placing the preamplifier in
“Standby”.)
DC Offset
The Ayre MX-R incorporates a circuit to detect the presence of
DC at the output terminals which could be harmful to the
loudspeaker. In this situation, the status LED glows red and the
amplifier will not operate.
If the amplifier is linked to an
AyreLink-equipped preamplifier with an
alpha-numeric display, a message indicating that
the amplifier has a DC offset will be displayed on
the front panel of the preamplifier.
If there are any unusual noises coming from the
loudspeaker, remove the AC power from the
amplifier immediately. Please return the unit to
your dealer or authorized service center.
To isolate the source of the problem, disconnect the audio input
cable from the MX-R amplifier and then press the front-panel
button. If the status LED glows green, then the problem is
either in the preamplifier or the source component. If the status
LED continues to glow red, the fault is in the amplifier. In this
case, remove AC power from the amplifier immediately. Please
return the unit to your dealer or authorized service center.
