Welcome back @hdbc
Philip, if the right inputs are selected into phono stage and the C48 but no sound, I know the feeling. PSA are usually quite responsive, and should come back to you. I hope it is not a major, and your warranty is good.
Serhan,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, everything is hooked up correctly, the correct input on the preamp is selected. Everything worked before it didn’t, so nothing changed as far as the installation and setup when I chose to play vinyl.
So you’re saying it randomly stopped working one day? I would double check all connections and completely reboot everything in the system. I’ve never heard of it working perfectly one day and then just stopping the next without something changing in the system. Give the service team another call and if needed, they’ll get you an RMA ASAP!
This unit will sometimes power on in MM even though you last used it in MC. Double check that you are in the correct mode.
Are the variable knobs on the back detended?
If you are referring to the variable resistance loading potentiometers being “detented” or with discrete positions you can feel when you rotate then no, they are not. Just typical smooth operation of a standard “pot”.

Does the SPP require a break in ? if so what do you think about phono preamp break in discs like granite audio ?
It does need a little burn-in time. Nothing dramatic. And I’m not a fan of any burn-in disks, accelerators, etc. Just play music and enjoy the process.

Ron’s right, it does need a bit but it isn’t too much. You can certainly get a reverse RIAA source and do it that way, but I wouldn’t bother. Just playing vinyl for a few weeks will do the trick.
I received mine nearly 2 months ago and I thought it sounded great right out of the box.
Although it sounds great straight out of the box, it benefits significantly from breaking it in.
