No Power
Turn on power.
Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
Power is on, but no sound
Make sure the source is turned on.
Verify that there is an input signal from the source. The audio input signal indicator on
the front of the chassis should be green.
Check the output signal indicators on the system controls. If the LED is not lit (green),
the output levels may be too low.
Check the source routing.
Check the cable connections from the source to the chassis.
Verify the user interfaces are of the right type for the operating mode selected.
Power is on, but sound is low
Verify that the audio input indicator is lit (green). If it is not lit, increase the source
output or increase the input gain.
Sound is distorted
Verify that the Input clipping indicators are not lit (red). If an LED is red, reduce the
source output level or reduce the input gain.
Verify that the Output clipping indicators are not lit (red). If one is red, but Input clip-
ping LEDs are not, reduce the output gain.
If the input source signal is clean when it enters the chassis and the Input and Output
indicators are green, verify that the loudspeakers are not overdriven or damaged.
Unnatural sound
Verify that the correct EQ is selected for speakers connected to the Output channel.
Verify that the speakers are wired correctly (+ to + and - to -).
User interfaces do not operate
properly
Verify that the user interfaces are wired correctly and to the proper zone (if there is
more than one zone).
Check the wiring for breaks or shorts in the cable.
Verify the user interfaces are of the right type for the operating mode selected.
