I need help guys,
Amp is now making a loud buzz through the speakers. No relationship to volume from the preamp. I had to immediately shut it off for fear of speaker damage. It was playing perfectly fine a moment before. Any ideas?
Ironically I was just about to list it for sale.
Does anyone have ideas on why the bass is so flabby? While the kids and high end of amazing? Would a different solve this?
Thanks
Also in the event that I do decide to sell it, what's a realistic asking price for a freshly tuned NP220?
How would one know if a preamp is high gain? What's NFB? I'm hoping to make this amp sound as special as everyone claims. It's close I think except for the bass.
Thanks
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I do plan on having it checked out and bringing a fresh set of matched tubes to go with. And probably print out this thread for service reference as it's the most informative I've come upon in all my searching. Sorry folks, didn't mean hijack the thread.
Hello folks,
So glad to find a current board on counterpoint amps.
I'm new here and need some beginners advise. First up, I was given what I thought was an SA-20. Much to my surprise and delight, it's actually an NP220 "1999 upgrade" done by Alta Vista.
Unfortunately it's first run after...
