Did some more measurements and it doesn't look too good. The mute control signals are ok but the DAC (AD1853) doesn't get data. The word clock (192K) and bit clock (12.289M) are present but the SDATA line is low. The next part upstream appears to be the Anagram upsampling module but since it is partially covered under the analog input board it is not easily accessible. If the fault happens to be in the Anagram module, repair may get difficult as this company is out of business too? Anyway, I'll think about it for a while before making my next step. In the meantime, I am using the digital output to drive an external DAC.
Audio aero capitole mk2 need help repairing
Dear: friends,
I have owned this great mk2 cdp for years, recently problem starts to appears, it switches off by itself and turns back on again while playing, and this switching on and off wont stop untill i have to power down the unit and let it rest for a few seconds before turning the power on again. However, this happens in sequence like after a few minute again while playing. It keeps on switching on and off by itself while playing.
I really love this aero, one of the best, most intimate, detail and warm digital player, and it is hard for me to find a replacement, so i would kindly seek help on similar problem and resolution to repair this...
Pls help...thanks alot and I would appreciate any advice....
