Help! nDAC went kaput
Posted by: JYOW on 14 July 2010
OK it is late at night here and I need help before bringing this baby back to the dealer to have it looked at.
My Naim DAC started acting up tonight. First it was refusing to sync with 44.1, 88.2 and 176.4 with my Hiface. But was able to sync 48, 96 and 192.
I then proceeded to turn the DAC off and back on. It did the initialization of alternating between sync light and HD light. Then nothing. Now it would not sync with my Cambridge player, Hiface or USB stick. Only the Naim logo light is up.
I tried the following:
- Cycle the chassis ground switch
- Unplug all digital sources and put each one back on
- Unplug DAC from the 282
Nothing works. It has been working fine since new.
The only change I can think of is tonight I plugged in a DIN to RCA cable from my Cambridge player into the 282, and that of course is full analogue.
Any ideas of what else to try?
