IF THERE IS A PROBLEM
IF SOUND IS NOT PRESENT OR IS ONLY IN ONE CHANNEL
1)Ensure that power cord is secure and the power LED is on
2).Check that all input and output signal connections are secure.
3)Check that the mute button is not pushed in.
4)Check that the balance knob is not turned.
5)Ensure that all tubes are properly seated in sockets.
IF THE SOUND IS DISTORTED
1)Ensure tubes are in proper locations. See Figure 3.
2)It is possible that a tube has gone bad. Return the unit to the dealer to test the tubes.
IF THERE IS A 50/60 Hz HUM
1)Make sure that the Tempest and source components are plugged into the same outlet or power strip.
2)If you are using a power conditioner try the Tempest without the power conditioner.
3)Unplug all other equipment from the Tempes and work backwards connecting the preamp, source, etc back in until the source of the hum/ground loop is determined
