Cambridge Audio 540A speaker connection frustration
Hi first time poster, so apologies if i've posted in the wrong section.
I've just bought my first piece of 'serious' audio equipment, a discontinued Cambridge Audio Azur 540A (version 1) Integrated Amplifier.
I connected it up just last night to a pair of cheap but powerful floor standing Eltax speakers & was able to get connected & listening to my music immediately.
On attempting to power on the unit this evening I get a protection light flashing for approx 4 seconds (7 flashes) & the unit returns to standby mode.
In the manual it says 'CAP5 [their protection system] has detected the resistance on the loudspeaker terminals is too low. Check to see if there is a short circuit between the loudspeaker terminals.'
Now, being new to all this i'm not sure what to check - specifically the resistance on the terminals.
The speakers were definitely working ok last night & after doing a little 'wiggling' of the speaker wires I got a little sound at first this evening, but having checked the connections multiple times both at the speaker & amplifier ends I've been unable to get the amp out of standby mode.
If by any small chance someone has experience of this amp or other cambridge audio amps & can assist I would be most grateful.
