Problem
Please Check
No Sound
•
Check the speakers are connected to the cable
correctly.
•
Check the speaker cable is connected to the receiver
amplifier correctly.
•
Check the receiver amplifier is powered “on” at the
mains, is not on “mute”, has no headphones attached
and that the Channels used for the exterior speakers
(usually A or B) is in operation.
•
Refer to the owners guide that came with your
receiver amplifier.
•
Most initial problems are connectivity, please try a
different connection cable to your outdoor speakers
or equipment
.
No Sound from one
speaker
•
Check the “balance” control on your receiver
amplifier.
•
Check all connections and cable to the inoperable
speaker.
•
1. Disconnect the “working” speaker from the
receiver amplifier connection/ channel. Switch the
cord from the non-operating speaker from its current
connection to the “working” speaker connection. If
the speaker now works the problem is your receiver
amplifier.
•
2. Reconnect as original. Remove the speaker cable
at the “working” speaker directly and connect it
directly to the non-working speaker. If the speaker
now works the problem is somewhere in the original
speaker cable.
•
3. If the speaker still does not work the problem is the
speaker.
One speaker sounds
distorted, lower
volume or “different”
•
Follow same procedure as above for “No Sound”.
Treble or Bass
•
Check the “tone” setting on your receiver amplifier.
•
Adjust the Treble and Bass settings on your receiver
amplifier.
•
Check the connections carefully from the amplifier to
your speakers and ensure correct Phase (+ to + and
– to – accordingly). Poor sound replication is
expected from a speakers or speakers out of polarity
or phase.
