  • Bekræft, at ampapparatet er tændt, og den korrekte inputkilde er valgt.
  • Test med en anden lydkilde eller amplifier if possible to isolate the problem.
• Forvrænget lyd:
  • Reducer lydstyrken på din amplifier. Distortion often occurs when the ampLifier er overdrevet.
  • Kontrollér højttalerkablets forbindelser for løse tråde eller kortslutninger.
  • Ensure the speakers are not placed too close to walls or corners, which can cause excessive bass and distortion.
• Unbalanced Sound (one speaker louder/softer than the other):
  • Tjek balancekontrollen på din amplifier eller lydkilde.
  • Verify that both speaker cables are securely connected and of similar length and gauge.
  • Ensure both speakers are positioned symmetrically in the room.
• Mangel på bas:
  • Confirm correct speaker polarity (+ to + and - to -). Incorrect polarity can cause bass cancellation.
  • Check speaker placement; moving speakers closer to walls can increase bass response.
  • Sørg for din amplifier's bass settings or tone controls are appropriately adjusted.
