SSL Alpha Link Problem

[crosscutred]

Try disconnecting the Alpha link from everything but the mains,
It should light up.
Then try changing the power cable/socket you're plugging into.

If there are still no lights it needs opening up..... send it to ssl

thanks for your answer. Thats the first thing i did and it didnt change anything. I just dont understand this. My Alpha Link is half a year old and it was solid as hell all the time. I have only connected a dsub breakout analog for my preamp/synth. Im monitoring via AES to a Benchmark DAC1 to my PMC's.

I worked with the system yesterday, today morning alpha link is dead. I just dont understand this. I've wrote to SSL support and im waiting to see.



thanks all

I had the same problem with one of my alpha link ax's
when I first purchased them in 2008.
my findings led me to the front panel
power switch(rocker type switch).
the internals of the switch were not
contacting so I just "rocked" the switch
up & down slowly ... until the unit
turned on.. left both alpha link's on
and never touched the power switch since
that occurrence ...
all of my gear are connected to power strips.
everything in my studio is turned on and off in series.

try this before sending back to ssl...
hope this helps...

exact same problem here today
fuse ok, reseated molex connectors, no joy....
already logged a ticket with SSL support, but if there are any more smart suggestions that save the unit being out for repair for a couple of week, would really appreciate them.

This same thing just happened to me as well. Working fine, now I get no lights, but a small click that sounds like the sound of a power cycle gets sent through all of the channels.

Did anyone ever find a solution? I really really need this to be working right now!

Yes, mine was exchanged under warranty with SSL, was all turnaround in 3 days, excellent service

I think mine may be a month or two out of warranty :(

Can't find the receipt so I will have to get a receipt reprint when the shop opens tomorrow. Did you have to ship your original unit to England?
