The lack of a CD places it pre '82.
A CD880 might well be a visual match, and, hierarchical match, in a sense, but they go for more than the Oppo you got cost.

Well I'm baffled by this thing. Can't get a peep out if it. Powers up okay but just nothing is going to the power amp. Tried all the outputs. Tried two different sources, tried both inputs. Even resorted to just pressing all the buttons at random. Absolutely nothing. Can't figure it out.
mute button jammed maybe
That seems okay, operates freely.
I've pulled it all out the rack so I can experiment more easily. Could be dodgy interconnects. In these situations, check everything.
Using the power amps variable inputs managed to get sound on one channel. Sounds pretty good! But clearly still something amiss.
Swapped interconnects so left is into right, working channel swaps over. So not the power amp. tried different interconnects, same issue. Conclusion - pre-amp has no output on one channel. Annoying.
Shame. Maybe Alan will have a look.
Yeah it's a bit of a bummer. Another one for the repair pile.
Is he still operating during ( semi ) lockdown ?.... Sorry to hear that Martin.Quote:

Anyway, hope you can get it fixed ASAP, by any which means possible. Being a preamp though, it shouldn't be too heavy, so you could box it up and send it to Alan, or I'm sure that Anthony would look at it for you?
