Hi Folks,
My Croft Series 7 arrived today to go with my Croft RIAA and Croft 25 Line Only (Zero Gain).
It was all sounding lovely using a digital source when I decided to switch to vinyl.
Perhaps I didn’t do things in the right order, but I switched the 25 to Phono (another line in on my 25) and turned on the RIAA. The RIAA doesn’t have a power on delay and immediately caused crackling and popping out of both speakers. After that, no sound from the Series 7 at all and verified that other power amps work fine. So clearly the 7 is bust although it might be a fault with the RIAA or 25 that caused it.
I’ve swapped valves in the 7 and no joy still.
Any ideas? I’ve emailed Glenn and Adrian at Audio Flair (Adrian is brilliant) but I am impatient for some opinions as my weekend of listening is now spoiled, unfortunately.
Thanks all.
