I agree with the rest, one tends first of all rather thinks of some simple cause for this. You have not forgotten to turn the power amp on?
I agree with the rest, one tends first of all rather thinks of some simple cause for this. You have not forgotten to turn the power amp on? Well that may be too simple. But turn it off, have a good sleep (or go to work or smth) and have fresh look at it the next day.
This one time I was scratching my head trying to figure out what was wrong with my amp because all I was getting was a faint distortion when I turned my dac all the way up. Checked the wiring, the interconnects, power switches, power bar, etc, it all looked good. I tested the dac separately and that was fine... it took me half an hour before I realized that the power cords were plugged into the bar but the IEC ends weren't connected to the amps.
I cannot fathom how an amp would suddenly lose 1/2 its output and still be otherwise normal. My first thought was that it was a balanced amp and the adapter box shorted the negative channel and took it out - balanced amp only driving a positive leg = 1/2 power. But the amp is single ended , the balanced inputs are shorted at the input to single ended , so connectors are merely there for convenience but no benefit driving this amp from a balanced source. It might be a good test to remove the amp out of the normal rig and test it independently but I agree with most of the considerations that this is some sort of digital volume limiting issue. ..dB
That is hilarious. Trust me on this one. All power cords in and working. I just found out from my cousin who was fiddling around with the adapter box when I had left the room. He decided the connections were loose and reconnected them except he reversed the connections, i.e. L to R and R to L (freakin retard). He heard music from only one side and panicked. That's where my travails begin. So now I truly don't know.
So it has been seriously wrongly connected? Than changes everything. The amp seems to have:4 internal fuses 250V/6.3A, 5x20mm, fast blowAdditional electrical protection fuseCheck the fuses first of all. (and turn off amp to re-set electrical fuses, who knows how they are working)If some output devices are blown, try to get replacement from from the manufacturer (of either amp or transistors), the world is full of fakes. Wish you best of luck.
