JBL SYNTHESIS SDA-7200

Troubleshooting/Specifications 

TROUBLESHOOTING

Incorrect connections, configuration or operation is sometimes mistaken for a product 

malfunction. If problems occur, see this section for troubleshooting information. If a problem 

persists, please contact your JBL Synthesis authorized dealer or installer.

No power:

•   If no front panel indicators are lit, check to make certain 

that the AC power cord is firmly inserted into the AC Power 

Socket.

The front panel Standby/ 

On Switch does not function:

•   It is normal for the Standby/On switch to be inactive when a 

trigger cable is connected or when the Audio Sense Switch 

is in the left, or ON, position. To restore this switch to manual 

operation remove the trigger cable and change the Audio 

Sense Switch to the right, or OFF, position.

Power on, but no audio:

•   If all Channel Operation Indicators are red the amplifier may 

have shut itself down to prevent overheating. Turn the unit 

off for about five minutes and then restart. If this problem 

persists check for proper ventilation and if added air flow 

does not solve the problem consult your dealer or installer.

•   Check the surround processor to make certain it is not in a 

“Mute” mode.

Audio from some, but not all 

channels:

•   If all some channels, but not all, have audio output first 

check to make certain that all audio input and speaker 

connections are solid.

•   If some channels operate and show a blue Channel 

Operation Indicator, but one or more are red, first turn the 

unit off with the Master Power Switch and then turn it on. If 

one or more Channel Operation Indicators are still red try the 

following:

1.  Turn the unit off and then check the speaker wire 

connections at both the amplifier and speaker side to 

make certain that none of the conductor strands are 

touching the chassis or another conductor channel.

2.  Remove the wires at the speaker end of a channel with a 

red indicator and see if it turns blue. This is an indication 

that fault is likely in the speaker and not the amplifier. 

•   If none of these suggestions solves the problem, turn your 

amplifier off and contact your dealer or installer.
