Troubleshooting
Sprout is easy to setup and use. From time to time a few problems
might be encountered and we trust this quick troubleshooting guide
may assist you. Should you have any problems we don’t resolve in this
section, we’re always here to help. Feel free to contact PS Audio or your
dealer for assistance, should it be needed.
Can’t get anything to work. Sprout has a rear panel power switch just
above where the AC power cable plugs in. Make sure this switch is in
the “ON” position.
Speakers keep cutting out. Sprout is well protected against accidental
misuse. If Sprout plays then cuts out there’s likely one of two problems:
you have a speaker wire touching or you’re playing it too loud. The rst
thing to check is your speaker cables. Look closely on both the speaker
and Sprout ends of the cable. Make sure the bare wire of the speaker
cable is not touching Sprout’s chassis or another speaker cable.
If the connections are okay and Sprout cuts out when you’re playing it
loudly, it may be your speakers are too power hungry or you’re asking
too much of Sprout. Turn it down to see if the problem goes away.
Sprout plays loud and nice with just about any loudspeaker, but it isn’t
going to go beyond its capabilities.
Can’t get the COAX input to play. Sprout really wants only one or
the other digital inputs connected at the same time. You can connect
both the COAX and USB inputs up simultaneously, but USB will always
override COAX. Either turn the computer o or disconnect the USB
cable to allow the COAX output from a CD player to work when in the
Digital mode.
Can’t get my TV to play nice with Sprout. You’ll want to make sure
the “Line Out” on the back of your television is connected to Sprout’s
Analog Inputs. Then, go to the TV’s settings menu and select Audio
