In Reply to: NAD 317 Protect Circuit posted by keith on March 31, 2003 at 04:08:06:
Keith,
I can't help you very much, but I just came back from a weekend vacation and found that my NAD 317 is acting up. When I turn the unit on, it goes into protect mode repeatedly - it will protect and then click and protect again every 1 second. It never makes any music.
I think what happened is there was a power surge that fried it while I was gone. The amp was plugged straight into the wall with no surge protector.
I need to get it repaired.
: Hi,
: I've got a NAD 317 amplifier bi-amped with a NAD 216THX but of late i've been having major problems. The 317 will not come out of protect mode. When you turn it on it goes into protect, but then instead of clicking out of it, as it should do, it stays in protect. Sometimes it will work, but then all of a sudden it will output some random static noise and then go straight into protect again.
: The amp is just outside of it's 2 year warranty and is going to cost a load to fix if i have to send it back to NAD. has anyone got any experience of this same problem or any possible home fixes?
: Help much appreciated.
: Thanks a lot.
