Troubleshooting

8

Probable Cause:

Amplifier is not connected 

to constant power outlet. 

Amplifier is not receiving 

an audio signal from 

receiver or processor 

 

Amplifier fuse might be 

blown. 

The + and - polarity of the 

subwoofer wire might be 

reversed on the subwoofer.
Crossover frequency not 

adjusted correctly. 

 

L/R line level input is con-

nected instead of the LFE 

line level input.

Situation:

No sound from 

subwoofer(s) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Performance is less 

than expected

Solution:

Make certain the amplifier is 

plugged into an unswitched A.C. 

power outlet.
Make certain there is an audio 

signal from receiver or processor 

and audio connections resemble 

those in the connections section of 

this manual.
Replace fuse (if fuse is not readily 

accessible, consult your authorized 

dealer). 
Check the entire system for proper 

polarity. Experiment with the phase 

switch.
Adjust crossover frequency by turn-

ing the crossover frequency control 

clockwise until desired sound is 

obtained.
If bass management is enabled on 

receiver or processor make sure to 

use the LFE line level input. (See 

amplifier controls and setup on the 

previous page.)
