4.2. 

Troubleshooting

No Power. First ensure that your active Eris E3.5 is plugged 

in. If it’s connected to a power conditioner, verify that the 

power conditioner is turned on and functioning.
No audio. If your Eris E3.5 appears to power on but you hear no 

sound when playing audio from your audio source (the lights are on 

but nobody’s home), first make sure that the cable connecting your 

audio source to the monitor is working correctly. Also, verify that the 

volume control is set to provide enough amplitude for the signal.
If only the passive E3.5 is not passing audio, check 

your speaker-wire connections and verify that the bare 

wire is fully inserted into each connection.
Hum. Usually, hum is caused by a ground loop. Verify that all 

audio equipment is connected to the same power source.
Sound is thin. If the sound of the speakers seems thin and brittle, 

check that your speaker wires are connected correctly (i.e., the positive/

red connection on the active Eris E3.5 is connected to the positive/red 

connection on the passive Eris E3.5 and the negative/black connection 

on each is connected to the negative/black connection on the other).
