Troubleshooting Tips

Symptom

Probable Cause

Action To Take

No output

Low or no remote turn-on

Check remote turn-on voltage at voltage 
amplifier and repair as needed.

Fuse blown

Check power wire's integrity and check for 
speaker shorts. Fix as needed and replace 
fuse.

Power wires not connected

Check power wire and ground connections 
and repair or replace as needed.

Audio input not connected.

Check RCA connections and repair or replace 
as needed.

Speaker wires not connected

Check speaker wires and repair or replace as 
needed.

Speaker are blown

Check system with known working speaker 
and repair or replace speakers as needed.

Audio cycles on and off

Thermal protection engages 
when amplifier heat sink tem-
perature exceeds 50º C (122º F)

Make sure there is proper ventilation for am-
plifier and improve ventilation as needed.

Loose or poor audio input

Check RCA connections and repair or replace 
as needed.

Loose power connections

Check power wires and ground connections 
and repair or replace as needed.

Distorted output

Amplifier level sensitivity set 
too high exceeding maximum 
capability of amplifier

Readjust gain. Refer to the 

Adjusting the 

Sound of the System

 section of this manual 

for detailed instructions.

Impedance load to amplifier 
too low

Check speaker impedance load, if below 2

rewire the speakers to achieve higher imped-
ance.

Shorted speaker wires 

Check speaker wires and repair or replace as 
needed.

Speaker not connected to am-
plifier properly.

Check speaker wires and repair or replace as 
needed. Refer to the 

Speaker Connections

 

section of this manual for detailed instruc-
tions

Internal crossover not set prop-
erly for speakers

Readjust crossovers. Refer to the 

Internal 

Crossover Configuration 

section of this 

manual for detailed instructions.

Speakers are blown

Check system with known working speakers 
and fix or replace as needed.

Poor bass response

Speakers wired with wrong 
polarity causing cancellation at 
low frequencies.

Check speaker polarity and fix as needed.
