Troubleshooting

No Sound from Your subwoofer. Power indicator not lit.
1. Check to confirm that your subwoofer
’
s power switch is set to the
“
on
”
position and that the
power cord has not been damaged and is securely plugged into the wall outlet. Verify that the wall
outlet is powered.
2. Check the RSL Speedwoofer 10SMKII
’
s removable fuse. It is located below the AC socket on the
amplifier.
Accessing the fuse. Make sure the Speedwoofer is unplugged from the AC.
To access the fuse, insert a flat
-
head screwdriver in the horizontal slot located on the power cord
socket, just below where the cord plugs in. Gently pry the fuse housing open until it
detaches. Extract the housing from the power cord socket, remove the fuse and inspect it. If the
wire inside the cylinder is severed, displays a gap or looks burned, the fuse is bad and needs to be
replaced. Replace with the a fuse of exactly the same value. The value is indicated below the
power socket. If the new fuse blows, your subwoofer requires service. Please contact us.
The Speedwoofer has internal circuit protection that could be tripped. If you suspect this, turn
down the subwoofer
’
s volume and turn off the power. Wait 5 minutes before turning it on.
Ground loop hum or noise.
Although a seldom occurrence, this can happen when speaker level inputs are used. It
’
s not the
fault of the subwoofer, but is caused by differences in the ground characteristics between
different audio equipment. Fortunately, this is easy to fix. There are two methods. Connect a piece
of wire from your audio amplifier
’
s ground to the subwoofer amplifier
’
s chassis. If your audio
amplifier does not have a ground lug, then loosen a screw around the perimeter of the chassis.
Wrap the stripped end of the wire around the screw and re
-
tighten. Then, connect the other end
to the amplifier
’
s ground screw. The hum should vanish.
As an alternative, if your amplifier has an unused RCA input, you can connect a single RCA
cable to either the left or right jack and the other end to the subwoofer
’
s RCA line out jack. This
effectively connects the grounds of the two units together eliminating the hum.
Subwoofer will not go into standby mode.
Make sure the auto power switch is set to on. If you are using the wireless transmitter, the
Speedwoofer will always stay in operation mode. This is normal. In this mode, the Speedwoofer
’
s
power consumption is only slightly higher than in standby and the longevity of your Speedwoofer
will not be affected. For more information please see wireless information on page 13.
If you are using a wired connection and the Speedwoofer stays in operation mode, it is because
there is noise in either your AC or audio lines. Sometimes this noise will not be audible, but will be
enough to keep the Speedwoofer in operation mode. Again, the power consumption is only
slightly higher and the longevity will not be affected.
