DESCRIPTION: You may have the complaint that the subwoofer or other channels are
popping when switching inputs or when turning on and off.
REASON: The channel that is popping may have a muting transistor damaged due to an
external source or subwoofer causing static damage to the transistor.
SOLUTION: Replace the transistor and install a 4700 pF capacitor between the base and
collector on the pre amp pc board , as shown in the following two schematics. The use of a
surface mount capacitor is recommended. Placing the capacitor on the bottom of the board
between the base and collector of each muting transistor is preferred . See figure 2 on page 2.
Note: It is recommended to install this capacitor to each channel’s muting transistor. The
following are the designations of the muting transistors,
Q608,Q609,Q610,Q611,Q612,Q613,Q615,Q617 and Multi source muting transistors
Q632,Q633.

DESCRIPTION: Unit may shut down, shortly after turn on.
REASON: There is a diode on the standby board that maybe operating intermittantly.
SOLUTION: Locate and identify D756 on the standby board. Change only if the diode is a
1N4148. Change from a 1N4148 to a 1N4001 or equivalent. See figure 1 for details.

DESCRIPTION: At high volume setting with no signal on an un-terminated analogue input,
there maybe some residual noise coming from one or more channels.
REASON: This residual noise is coming from the DSP PC board and power supply ground.
SOLUTION: Perform the following ground changes to lower residual noise.
1. Add jumper wire between DSP AGND (grounding bracket) and Multi-channel RCA (the blue
wire in the photo, use AWG #18). See Figure 1.
