Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Another Transporter that will not power up...
hmmm...mine looked totally new with the sticker still on the knob and the outside packaging box did not look like it was ever opened. Of course one cannot tell 100% but it does not look like it has ever been used NewBuyer;544193 Wrote: Depends on the seller. Some NIB units sold at discount are actually refurbs - which (who knows) may be more prone to certain issues than other units. If the majority of these AC power issues with Transporters are occurring through discount sellers, that could be worth identifying...

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Another Transporter that will not power up...
My experience says that usually refurb units are less prone to any faults. Anyway... I wonder if there is a way to verify if Transporter is refurb or not. I got one of those deals and so far, after 8 months, unit has been behaving perfectly. On the other hand it's modified so can't tell for sure what would happen if it was stock... -- gizek Transporter Adcom GFP-750 Monarchy Audio SE-100 monoblocks Proac Studio 100; Cardas Neutral Reference all over gizek's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34337 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78170 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

ntang;542451 Wrote: I have yet another Transporter bought NIB that will not power up (no clicking sound). It was playing and powered up fine for about a week or so, then I powered down the mains so I could move the other equipment around on the rack. Now it simply wont start! Country runs 230v and is quite stable. I cant reset it by pressing add button and power it own as per the manual cause there simply does not seem to be any power to the unit. Any idea? I am about to send it back to the seller but this is costing me a lot in shipping (overseas). Hi ntang, I've been following these several 'Transporters with AC Power Problems' incidents with much interest lately - did you buy your unit from Logitech directly? -- NewBuyer NewBuyer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7862 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78170 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Another Transporter that will not power up...
Happened once to my unit. It turned out to be the simplest reason ever. I use power conditioner/surge protector with switchable power outlets. Transporter outlet was off. Make sure to eliminate those simple glitches before going with your investigation ;_) I have also read somewhere about Transporter's stuck relays. If you confident with multimeter you can measure AC inside unit. Be careful those voltages could be lethal. Don't do it if you're not 100% sure what you're doing. -- gizek Transporter Adcom GFP-750 Monarchy Audio SM-70Pro monoblocks Proac Studio 100; Cardas Neutral Reference all over gizek's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34337 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78170 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

Yup...sounds like mine has a stuck relay (no click). I have just sent it back to the seller and he is shipping me a new one.
