- Always check the volume control before playback. Too many times I have been bitten by too loud or soft.
- Look for any changes in the display of my preamp. Using a remote control is certainly convenient but it comes at the price of the occasional erroneous button push.
- Reboot my system every month. It's easy to get lazy about rebooting and fall into the trap of everything's just fine.
- Revert to known music if performance goes awry. If something in the system's amiss it's always helpful to have a go to piece I know like the back of my hand. I think of it as my reality check.
- Trust my first impressions. This doesn't work for everyone but it sure works for me.
