Problem with Supratek Preamp or Musetax Bidat DAC?

Hi Folks:
I'm currently not getting any sound when I try to play DVD or CD through my system. Vinyl works just fine, through my Supratek Syrah full function preamp. So, I'm assuming the DAC is the problem. Still, could it be that the phono in my syrah preamp is working fine, but something is amiss with the line stage? I've tried different interconnects between the Syrah and the Muse, and have switched between digital cable and toslink from home theatre PC and CD Transport, but I get no sound with any combination. I do find that the Bidat does 'pick up' the signal (the blue led does light up to signal that it's locked onto the input signal from the digital source). Still, I get no sound output.

Well, any and all input welcome. I hope I can solve this one. Maybe this is a good excuse to get my Bidat updated to latest 'Plus' version by Mr. Wright..

Thanks in advance,
John.

Hi Guys:
Thanks for the response. I sorted out the problem. I found a small 'reset' buttong on the back of the Bidat which appeared to do the trick. I'm not sure if this really was the solution, but after pressing this, and turning things on again, things are now working perfectly. Thanks for the help.

On the upgrade front, yes, I've just pinged John Wright to inquire about upgrades - will be good to get the dac sounding even better.

Thanks again,
John.
