Power On, Low Output or No Output
Low or no output problems are usually signal-source, bad cable or partial output short circuit related. If the items listed
below check out, then the problem may be internal to the pm700
/
pm950.
1. The Input Level controls are set too low.
2. Move the input connections to another amplifier that you know is working to verify that it is not a source problem.
3. Check the speaker connections. Be sure that there are no small strands of wire touching similar strands coming from
the other wire in the cable.
4. Make sure the speakers are functioning correctly.
5. If you are using bridged-mono mode, ensure that the Stereo/Mono switch is set correctly.
6. Use a voltmeter to determine if the power line voltage is dropping excessively when the amplifier is driven hard.
Playback Is Mixed with Hum
1. Check or replace the connecting cables.
2. Make sure that each screw terminal connection is tight.
3. Signal cables may have been routed too closely to AC cables, power transformers, motors or other EMI inducing device.
4. Try connecting another source to the power amplifier inputs. If the hum stops, the problem lies with the original source
component.
Distortion
Distortion is usually caused by excessive loss in the input controls (the mixer/equalizer/crossover can’t produce enough output),
overdriving resulting in output clipping, or current limiting caused by excessively low load impedances.
1. Check the setting of the Input Level controls. If set too low, the preceding piece of equipment may not have sufficient output to
overcome the loss.
2. Check the speaker connections and verify that all screw connections are tight and that there are no stray strands of wire to cause
short circuits.
3 . Verify that the total load impedance presented to the amplifier is within the limits described in this manual for the mode of
operation selected.
