The SP-8, like most ARC preamplifiers, should automatically go into mute when it is powered up. After the brief warmup, you should here the relay softly click, and then it will unmute. It sounds like your unit has an issue.
AR Sp8 possible breakdown
.Hello everyone, I just bought a SP 8 mk2 and I am not familiar with the startup processes of this device.
The problem is that when it turns on after the 2 minutes of security, the left channel hits a bang and sometimes it takes a few seconds after the other channel to play.
If I turn it on with the mute function on ok and wait a little more than two minutes, I don’t know about this problem.
Should I be concerned?
