I’m having some difficulty connecting a Burndy to a 552 pre-amp. I managed to connect one end of the Burndy to the 552 power supply without too much difficulty, but the other end is proving problematic. None of the pins look bent to me but I’m certainly no expert. A couple of photographs below show the Burndy in question.
The Burndy in the top pic needs rotating about 100 degrees clockwise so the larger plastic lug is at 12 o clock. Should slot in then rotate the lock ring
You will also need the DIN cable. Check the Naim connection guide. All the details you need.
Yes, just make sure that larger (single) lug is pointing directly up (12 o’clock) when you offer it up to the socket, then wigggle the plug a little while gently pushing it in the socket. Once you feel the plug just entering the socket then rotate the metal ring to fully guide the plug into the socket.
The suggestions on here about relaxing them do seem to make a difference. And if you can ensure they don’t touch the floor or anything else that’s good as well.
I do an initial relaxing and then do it again after 2 or 3 days of them being connected. To my ears gives a little more and they are even easier work with and to connect.
Hello @Richard.Dane , yesterday I found a photograph you posted on a thread of how a Burndy should look when properly connected, but despite searching on the forum I can’t find it today. Do you recall this and, if so, would you be able to repost the photograph?
Thanks Richard - I knew I should have saved the page. I think you were demonstrating how there should be a slight gap in the collar when fitted correctly.
