Trouble
Should the Ayre K-3x preamplifier ever fail to operate
properly, please check the following:
Symptom: Remote control not
working.
Check the batteries located in the remote control.
Symptom: No sound, and the
status indicator is glowing
red.
If the AC line voltage drops below 80% of normal
(brown-out), the outputs will mute and the indicator light
will glow red. After the line voltage returns to normal, the
initial power-up cycle will begin again.
Symptom: Status indicator
lamp not lit.
Should the AC line lose power, the preamplifiers outputs
are immediately muted. This avoids any loudspeaker
damage due to thumps or pops.
1) Be sure that the power supply unit is connected to a
working AC outlet.
2) Check the AC line fuse.
To check the fuse, locate the rectangular fuse holder
mounted on the rear panel of the power supply. Press
downwards on the top edge, then pull outward. There are
two fuses mounted in the fuse holder. The inner one is the
operating fuse, and the outer one is a spare.
