Troubleshooting
Not all speakers function:
Please first check if the speaker wires are connected securely; then check if
the Line-in connectors are reversed; check also if the audio source is at
fault.
One satellite speaker does not function when playing CD from a computer:
This kind of phenomena is prone to happen on new computer systems that one
satellite does not function when playing CD, but system works fine when
playing WAV formatted files. This is mainly due to the fault connection of CD-
ROM and sound card, that one channel of signal is shorted to the ground.
Please refer to the manual of CD-ROM and sound card to adjust the wire
connection.
The system does not work at all
- Please check if power is connected, and if the wall outlet is switched on.
- Please check if the amplifier is still in STBY mode
- Please check if the master volume is turned to minimum
- Please check if the audio input cable is connected correctly
- Please check if there is signal from audio source
Noise coming from speakers
The amplifier circuitry of this product generates little noise, while the
background noise of some VCD/DVD player or computer sound card are too high.
Please keep the system in active mode and remove the audio source, if no sound
can be heard at 1 meter away from the system, then there is no problem with
this product.
Magnetic interference
This system is completely magnetically shielded, and can be placed near TV or
monitor. But since magnet of the subwoofer driver is large, some magnetism
leakage is inevitable when the system is too close to the monitor, and it is
recommended to keep a 1 meter distance between the speaker system and monitor
or TV set.
The system can not switch to analog signal input with digital input ports
plugged in
Some digital signal source like CD or VCD play will still output tangible
digital signal even when the source is shut down. These tangible signals are
used to mute the decoder; therefore the system can not switch to analog inputs
(digital inputs have higher priority). Power off the source of digital signal
or unplug the optical or coaxial inputs, then the system will switch to analog
inputs.
The system does not work with Dolby Digital (AC-3) signal
Digital inputs on this system do not support Dolby Digital (AC-3) formatted
signals, so the system will not work when such signals are fed in. If you have
