Hi guys. I posted a little while ago about getting a Focusrite Saffire. My girlfriend bought it for me on ebay. THe seller had good rep and it was a good deal.
Upon receiving the Saffire, everything worked correctly except the phantom power. It did nothing. I use a Studio Projects B1 and it just wouldnt power it.THe mic still works fine in my 4 track mixer.
So i sent the Saffire back and they replaced it.
Loaded it up and SAME thing. THinking it could be my PC or FIrewire card, I took it to a mates house and connected to laptop with firewire 6pin built in.
Same thing.
We got a multimeter and tested the phantom power and it was outputting nothing. Hence why it wasnt working.
I've contacted the seller and they say that i've blown the preamps using my mic and they wont give me a refund. Ive also asked for an invoice so i could take to authorised repairer but they wont reply to that.
WHat should i do? Please help
