Thanks for the reply. I think I have worked out it is the Mini doing something wrong. I have been using the DAC with a CD player on Optical and no issues. I will have to go through the audio settings and double check. I checked the Sound preferences and when using digital output there is no balance control. Thanks Martin.

Hello All, I have a Mini connected by Toslink to a DacMagic2 going into a Sansui G-5000 and Tannoy Reds. The system was working well for a while, and then I lost sound in one speaker. Initially I thought the speaker was gone. However on closer inspection of the issue I found using Audio Midi and the "Configure Speakers" setting I could get sound back for a few minutes, then the sound cuts out. I have tested the Sansui using a normal CD player and everything works, including the speakers. I have used the software settings in a number of combinations and still cannot fix the problem. I moved the Mini and the DAC over to a Sansui G-3500 and another set of speakers (Coral) and they seem to work. Has anyone had a Mini loose a channel before? Does it sound more like a DAC issue? Any help would be appreciated. Martin.
