Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Exact Cambridge Audio MXN10. Normal standby/wake settings only; no firmware, factory reset or power-cord cycling. Only normal external user controls; no mains modification, chassis opening, reset or firmware installation.
Connection scope: Device controls / power only. Symptom: Power-on or automatic standby isn’t working.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at scope. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
scope
Confirm the exact setup
The exact standby setting is readable, the device is not updating and the owner accepts a normal wake/standby-mode check.
Look for: Choose only a detail you can confirm.
- If Yes, confirmed → Read the actual Standby Mode setting
- If No → Keep the actual observation for support
- If I do not know / cannot check → Confirm the unknown detail first
