Don't you have a return-refund timeframe even for 2nd hand sold equipment from the dealer?
Audia flight protection mode
Hi I have bought a second hand Audia flight phono stage. It starts in standby and then the blue light flashes fast for 60 seconds, and then it switches on for about 2 seconds. It then locks up with a flashing blue light...so called protective mode. Nothing I do seems to change this. I was just wondering if anyone had experienced this, and if so what the fix was? It seems it worked perfectly in the dealer's demo system, but after transport has this error in 2 different systems. I would really love a quick fix, but the manual and the website have very little info on error conditions.

well it usually happens when it doesn't read right voltage off the voltage regulator. to be more precise the circuit will not 'open' till it sees the right voltage. thus voltage regulator(often single ic) is often the one to replace. ask manufacturer if that is a common problem and what they recommend to do or offer to do if you decide to fix it on your own. if you try and try to troubleshoot yourself, be noted that you may leave noticeable traces of 'invasion' and it may block you from sending it back for refund or different unit. |

Glad it turned out nicely, but pin hole in transformer case seems to be "found something to say". Dealer doesn't repair your unit so he/she may not know what was really wrong while techie may explain something like that to secure one's business or job security. As you know, English is spelled differently than pronounced. Same principal was honestly followed when pronounced "pin hole in the transformer case". Trust me the spelling is entirely different :-). |
