Troubleshooting

Display on front panel not lit

Check the following:

There is AC power connected to the socket on the
back of the DSP8000 loudspeaker.
The power switch on the back panel of the
DSP8000 loudspeaker is turned on.

If the display will still not illuminate, check any fuses
in your power supply and the fuse in the inlet of the
DSP8000 loudspeaker. If these are all intact, contact
your dealer.

Unit stays in standby

Check that it is connected correctly.
Turn the system on from another Meridian product in
the system.

Remote not working

Check the following:

The battery in the MSR+ remote.
See if the DSP8000 loudspeaker has been set up as
not controller in the Meridian Configuration program;
see

Configuring the setup options, page 28. Note

that this may be deliberate by your dealer.

Configuring the DSP8000 loudspeaker
does not have any effect

Make sure that you are configuring the DSP8000
loudspeaker used as the master digital loudspeaker
in the system. This determines the configuration
of sources and setup options for all slave digital
loudspeakers in the system.

Drive units move when the speaker is
switched on or off

This is normal as the speaker active electronics
settle.



There is radio interference

The DSP8000 loudspeaker is a digital audio and
computing device which has been designed to very
high standards of electromagnetic compatibility.

If this equipment does cause or suffer from interference
to/from radio or television reception then the following
measures should be tried:

Reorient the receiving aerial (or antenna) or route the
antenna cable of the receiver as far as possible from
the DSP8000 loudspeaker and its cabling.
Ensure that the receiver uses well-screened antenna
cable.
Relocate the receiver with respect to the DSP8000
loudspeaker.
Connect the receiver and this product to different AC
outlets.
If the problem persists contact your dealer.

Only the master loudspeaker plays

Check the cables are connected correctly.

Sound is odd or mono

Check that the DSP8000 loudspeakers are correctly
configured as Left and Right respectively.

Unit goes silent when played hard and
displays ‘Hot’

The DSP8000 loudspeakers have a temperature
sensing system on board, which prevents overheating
of the electronics. The sound will continue when the
speaker has cooled.

The green indicator flashes or stays on

This indicates that the DSP is protecting the
loudspeaker drive units from overheating. It is normal
for this light to stay on after a long period of listening at
high sound levels.
