Default PROBLEM: CD Player Digital Output

OK, I remembered that one of my other CD players--a Magnavox CDB650--
also has a digital output.

I patched it into the Yamaha preamp and got the same results--no right
channel sound.

I also tried another cable (dumb, I know--I'm still thinking
"analog"!) and got the same results.

I also tried using another one of the preamp's digital inputs and got
the same results.

So I can safely say that the fault lies somewhere inside the preamp.

Time to get out the hammer and duct tape......




Far be it from me to say I told you so, so I won't.


Actually your original instincts were right. Digital either works or it
doesn't.

Ah, you don't have a DAB radio then? The background sound of boiling mud
in low signal conditions is a joy.
