NO SOUND? 1) Source unit volume is turned down or muted: Turn volume up slowly or turn mute off. 2) Speaker leads shorted: Check speaker continuity using your DMM to ground (it should show no common ground). 3) Speakers not connected or blown: Check speaker connections at amplifier and at speakers. Disconnect speakers at amplifier and measure coil impedance with DMM. DISTORTED AUDIO? 1) Gain may not be properly set: Review your amplifier s user guide to correctly adjust gain setting. 2) Speaker may be damaged: Inspect each speaker cone for signs of damage (frozen cone, burned smell, separated or ripped surround or spider). REDUCED BASS? 1) Speakers may be wired in reverse polarity: Reverse a speaker connection from positive to negative on the stereo or speaker. E C AMPLIFIER SHUTS DOWN AFTER PLAYING FOR A PERIOD OF TIME? 1) Thermal protection circuits are shutting the amplifier off: Check the location for adequate ventilation (Relocate amplifier if necessary). Impedance may be too low and over heating the amplifier. Check amplifier s user guide for impedance compatibility. A B 3 12
