What to do
• Make sure the receiver is plugged in and turned on.
• Check to be sure the AC power (mains) outlet is working.
• Disconnect any headphones plugged into the headphone jack.
• Make sure the receiver is not set to MUTE.
• Refer to the owner's guide that came with your receiver.
• Check connections to both the speakers and the receiver. Refer to "Make the connec-
tions" on page 6. Correct any connection errors.
• Disconnect the working speaker from the receiver.
• Switch the cord of the "faulty" speaker from its original receiver jacks to the other set of
jacks (the working speaker was originally attached to those jacks).
– If the speaker now works, the problem is in your receiver.
– If the speaker does not work, continue below.
• Remove the cord from the working speaker and connect it to the "faulty" speaker and
either set of receiver jacks.
– If the speaker now works, the problem was in the original speaker cord.
– If the speaker does not work, the problem is in the speaker.
• Follow the same procedure for the problem of no sound from one speaker, as outlined
above.
• Check the connections to make sure they are correctly in phase (+ to + and – to –). Refer
to "Make the connections" on page 6.
• Move the speakers closer to or farther from the side walls or other sound-reflecting hard
surfaces.
• Do not place the speakers exactly halfway between the floor and ceiling or any other
sound-reflecting hard surface.
