Hi
new to these parts though I've read a fair few posts.
Anyway, I got my K701's for my birthday and then went and bought a Dark Voice Figaro from Jasmine, in China which arrived today.
Got home tonight, plugged it all in and eventually found out that the left channel is distorting heavily. Even tried it with a number of different sources and other h/phones. but it is a problem with the amp.
Now, do I spring £30-40 sending it back to China, or is there something I can do myself? I'm reasonably proficient in electrical things, but valves scare me.
Could it be as simple as a loose or faulty valve? If I turn the power off, wait 3 seconds, then turn it on again the sound is OK for about a minute then goes into distortion.
Any tips welcome....
thanks
D.
