• Ensure the speaker wires did not
disconnect from the speakers or the
receiver/amplifier.
• Check the settings on your receiver/amplifier.
Refer to the receiver/amplifier owner’s guide for
instructions on settings.
• If other stereo speakers are connected to a
second set of audio outputs on your receiver/
amplifier, select the proper A or B speaker setting
to match the A or B outputs connected to your
speakers.
Sound from

only
• Center the balance control on your receiver/
amplifier.
• Ensure no wires from the positive and negative
terminals on the receiver/amplifier are touching.
• Disconnect the speaker wire from the receiver/
amplifier channel and reconnect it to a different
channel.
• Check that no wires from the positive and negative
terminals are touching where the speaker wire
connects to the speaker.
• Disconnect the speaker wire from the speaker and
reconnect it to another speaker. If this speaker
works, your speaker needs to be serviced. Refer
