Also anyone experience problems with it maintaining an 8 ohm load with the volume knobs set to different levels? I've heard thats a common problem...

I never measured it but the system is designed to maintain nominal load under all conditions. Mine works fine on a whole house system with all outputs wired. Keep the same speakers per load connected, i.e. use only 8 ohms speakers.

Make sure all speakers are connected correctly, meaning positive with positive and negative with negative. Also the check receiver wattage specs with the selector capacity.

First, I must admit that I'm not an audio expert, and the last time I studied amps and volts and ohms was when I passed the Ham radio exam in 1960. All I can relate is that I currently use the unit to split the audio output from my receiver to an interior and an outdoor set of speakers. The interior speakers are Polk and the outdoor speakers are Best Buys private brand, and there is a considerable difference in the output from the two sets. Ergo I can balance the relative volume between inside and outside using the Monoprice unit. Do far it does a great job, but I don't know if my very limited application will really help.

It must be a problem with the receiver.I did not have any problems with the volume.

Thanks, that might have been the reason for I went from some mid range infinitys to 4 Martin Logan towers and the problem seems to have disappeared, I'll keep pushing the volume up after the recommended break-in period of the ML10'S.Looks as if the problem was in my old speakers, I was able to floor the receiver with the ML10s without triggering the protection circuit so now I'm going to sit back and enjoy warping across the various universes with Startrek and the Skywalker clan.

Mine also failed due to sweat. Same problems noted here. The volume control went haywire and stuck on full blast.

It's normal that you had to cycle the power to get the amp working properly, that means it went in to protection mode which is designed to stop any possible damage to the internal components. You need to diagnose what is causing the problem. What are you driving with the V70? Are you bridging the chanels and are you running 2 ohm loads or above? The v70 is only stable down to 2 ohms anything lower will put the V70 in to protection mode. Hope I helped a little

HiThe higher the volume the shorter the battery charge life. I consistently get 8 hours plus but I only have the volume on talking level. Make sure you give the unit a "soaking" charge ( ie overnight)

No issues that I know of. Sounds like static electricity is effecting the unit? I'd say its defective. Good luck!!

I have mine on 1ohm and doesn't sound bad at all, my trunk still sound like a gorilla trying to escape. Great speakers but if played to loud for to long they will burn out.

Did you adjust the screw adjuster under the rubber plug. I typically turn it clockwise until it stops and the back off a little. I have also found that not all MP3 or IPODs put out the same supply power. I had an IPOD hooked up to one amp and the volume was allot lower than what I was used to. After much testing and adjusting I tried a different IPOD and it was back to normal.

I did noticed that. I also learned it was due to an inadequate power supply. At higher volume levels I found the best performance at 13.5vdc. I accidently discovered this by taking the speakers to the beach and using a car battery to power them. As the voltage dropped after a few hours of use, that's when I noticed higher pitched volcals being drowned out by the lower signals.

Not here. I would unplug it and see if it still happens and if it doesnt, I would assume its something to do with the volume dial.

I've had success pulling the power plug, counting to ten, and re-plugging. That it loses functionality seemingly at random and within a few weeks of purchase doesn't say much for the player. Has anyone else noticed how loud it is? That seems impossible to fix, a permanent annoyance.

TDK says there's a wire inside the volume knob which might cause the volume bottom to move on it's own. Could this be your problem? I wouldn't take much movement of the knob to affect the volume.

Yes, I've never had a problem. The device has volume adjustment so if there is noise you can turn it up very easily.

I have not had that problem, love mine, sorry I was not any help, sounds like a defect or an impedance problem to me.

I had the same problem with mine. Went through 3 sets in a week and after a week and a half the amp went up in smoke. Exchanged it for a massive audio n4 and couldn't be happier.

I never had a problem with the volume. sometimes its was hard to move the control but if you worked with it a minute or two it would work.
