Troubleshooting

No Power

z Examine the power cord to be sure that it is connected to both the AC mains con-

nector and an AC wall outlet.

z Try substituting another power cord.

z Check the AC mains voltage setting on the back of the unit and see if it is according to

your local power voltage.

No Sound or Low Output

z Examine all cables to ensure a solid connection between the TAURUS PRE and as-

sociated components.

z Make sure you have selected the right input and output ports.

z Make sure all associated components are powered on and not muted.

z Make sure all associated components connected to the selected input are producing

an audible input signal.

Distorted or Partial Sound

z Check the cables between the TAURUS PRE and associated components, making

sure all connections are good and sound.

z Check out the output level of your source component and make sure it will not over-

drive TAURUS PRE’s input by delivering signal level below allowed level.

Noise/Hum

z Check the input cables between TAURUS PRE and associated components, making

sure all connections are good and sound.

z Make sure the input cables between the TAURUS PRE and sources component are

not routed near AC cables, power transformers, or other EMI inducing devices.

z Try to use high quality interconnect cable with full ground shield.

z Try to plug TAURUS PRE and associated components with different AC main socket

to avoid ground loop induced hum noise.
