Dear all,

I recently upgrade my tag system adding a pair of 250MR Amp. This to add 2 more channels and benefits of surround back channels (+ Zone 2). Nevertheless I have 3 question I like to ask the community:

A) Zone 2 settings: I can easily define which speakers will be ZONE2. However, anytime i change to Zone 2, the amp automatically go in stand by mode. So fare the only option is to force the amp to remain on.

Thus is there anyone knows how I can keep the AVP32dp to control the AMP modules to shut off all modules not needed but keep the Zone 2 modules on.

B) I have bought a pair of Tag 250MR. Works great but have noticed that:
=> When going out of standby, it sends a buzz or peak noise to loudspeakers.

C) My tag AVP32bd seems to be fairly hot (right hand) while in use. However works like perfect. Thus is this normal to have the processor significantly more hot than amplifiers? Is this bad sign?

Big Thanks in advance.

PS my config is :
Tag AVP32dp192
Tag DVD32R
Tag 100x5
Tag 250 mr (pair)
Oppo 95 buray
JVC - DIla950

Any thoughts from anyone?

The heat issue could be due the DAB module if you have it fitted and/or the known issue with all DP models to do with the rectifier, or some PSU related component, that can be fixed by IAG or more cheaply by the Audiocellar (refer to TAG FAQ above).

I assume you are using the TAG communication bus between components, so check that you have everything wired up in the right order, otherwise I can't help with the amps being shut off.

FWIW, I leave my 100x5R:7 on all the time.
