I recently powered up my system after the holidays. I now have no sound in the left speaker when playing CD but all is good with vinyl. I’ve since powered down, re-plugged all connections and tried again. No change.
So I guess the problem is not with pre or power amps. Any ideas or has anybody had a similar issue?
Dave, have you tried connecting to a different input? Also, try the RCA outputs on the CDS3 - you’ll need to enable these via the DISP press and hold function.
The plot thickens today. I dug out the old grey interconnect (SNAIC?) from the attic and tried this in place of the Hi Line. Same problem, no left speaker output.
Then, just to try it, I put the output to “mono” using the front panel buttons on the NAC. Hey presto, sound from both speakers. Same too when I put the Hi Line back in.
So source 2 (vinyl) is fine. Normal CD input has no left sound out with both SNAIC and HiLine. Both speakers are fine with mono output.
I don’t have any RCA cables handy to try out.
