Supernait 3 fault

Hi-Fi Corner

Hello guys

Just today i heard a loud bang and then high pitch whine from my speakers. I quickly turned the supernait 3 off. When I went back to turn it on, I could see the mute button flashing and the same high pitch whine coming back. I turned the supernait off again.

I disconnected the speakers and then turn the supernait 3 on once more, mute button flashing. This should indicate link plug disconnected but it is not disconnected. I hold down mute and then it blinking stops. Now my supernait 3 is stuck in this power amp mode where there are no lights except for the naim logo. Can anyone help?

One for @NeilS…?

Not one I’ve heard of/seen before, but it sounds like something nasty has happened to the preamp power supply stage.
Time for an RMA unfortunately.

Regards
Neil.

Any chance it will damage my speakers…?

I think you should get in touch with your dealer and let them know what has happened so they can arrange to get your SN seen to by Naim. Only way to know re. Your speakers is to try them with a different amp.
