I've just got this: (after many years with the Cambridge DTT2200 5.1 + PC)

Nad 3020i amp. (old 20 years+?)
Kef iQ5 Speakers + Kef PSW2010 Subwoofer.
Arcam Miniblink DAC
BlueSoleil v10.0.492.1 (with standard MSI hardware dongle)
+ HP Pavilion G6 - 2382sa D0Y14EA#ABU

...apparently the amp was stored for 15 years in a loft, in the box.

The volume is fluctuating and erratic out of the speakers; is there anything I can do to 'narrow this down' and/or test the amp with a multi-meter or something? Apparently there are known software and driver issues and bugs as well?

many thanks in advance!

dodgy volume control perhaps, may be the cause... A good clean with Caig Labs deoxit may cure it, giving it some movement while spraying inside.
