TROUBLESHOOTING
No sound or low volume? Do you have the correct input selected? Do you need to be in High gain (+18db)
mode? Is your cartridge loading set so low that the cartridge is not producing enough output? Are you using
INPUT 2 RCA or XLR without switching the dip switches to the correct mode? Are you in MUTE?
Measured load not changing? Check that the DIP switch setting for 47K/Adjustable are in the Adjustable
position. Are you turning the correct knob for the Input you are measuring?
Acoustic Feedback causing howling? Switch on the High Pass filter.
Audible hum in the system. See the grounding section on Page 8. The PPA-2 itself is very, very quiet, so if you
are hearing hum it is caused by something else in your system. There is most likely something in your system
causing it and you need to look at your grounding, wire position or for some other problem. It should, and will
be, quiet and hum-free.
