Klipsch Synergy Sub-10 Subwoofer Speaker Questions & Answers
Klipsch sub 10 amp failed , no output
Clearly there is something too highly stressed, badly designed or of inferior quality within the amp but without access to the circuits and more details it is impossible to know what that is.
From experience I would guess the truth of the matter is the company has not designed and/or built the amp itself but has either contracted-out this part of the production or has bought in ready-built amplifiers and adapted them for their purpose. Such a thing is common in commercial production and cuts production costs/increases profits drastically. It is not unusual that these practices result in things being short-lived and unreliable...
Those who buy in ready made modules tend to be divorced from intimate contact with the circuits and the components used and often don't possess the required technical expertise for the task and are simply reading specifications and the bottom line and such people have the unfortunate habit of expecting a pint pot to contain a quart...
Considering the increased profits, such people neither want or expect perfect performance or reliability just merely that most of the people most of the time are satisfied and not enough are dissatisfied to affect the overall brand reputation...
Maybe it will be third time lucky for you...
Hi,
we moved the sub woofer
Where was it sitting before it was moved? Did it have it have more ventilation and keep cooler? This sub has a powerful amplifier in it. If it got moved to an area that restricts air circulation around the sub more it is possibly overheating and causing fuses to blow. Put a fan on it and make sure it is on a hard surface or up off the carpet at least to keep the bottom side cool as well. Also when one moves a speaker it's often to put it into a more convenient area to be able to turn it up louder with less disturbance to others. This will draw more power and create more heat within the amplifier than it's previous location. If this is so keep it as cool as you can and turn it down every so often to give the amp a rest. The key here is to keep it cool as you can. One thing you never want to do is put a higher rated fuse in than the unit is rated for. Always use factory recommend fuse rating.
I have a Klipsch Sub-10
If you're saying the auto setup produced sound then the sub and its amp are fine.
So we need to examine the source electronics for actual playback settings. Give a hint of what that might be.
No sound from my klipsch r-4b subwoofer
Klipsch is not forthcoming with internal diagrams. I have worked on / repaired some of them. They have components that are under rated for the application and fail. You will need to have it serviced if it pairs and you dont have sound.
Can I turn down the bass on my Klipsch rp280f speaker? I have no tone control on my sprout 100.
No.
The RP-280F is just a passive floor standing speaker.
Passive means it does not produce any type of audio/sound itself. It must be powered by an external amplifier or other source of power outside from itself.
Therefore it cannot/does not adjust or modify the power & or frequencies provided by another product.
Usally your adjustments for bass & treble are located on the receiver/amplifier/stereo/whatever your power source is & is adjusted by the product that is producing the power.
Hope this helps.
I have a klipsch promedia ultra 5.1 speaker system. On the back of the subwoofer it has three 3.5mm inputs for front L/R, rear L/R, and center/sub. What do the other ends of the 3.5mm cables plug into
Those three analog inputs are designed for a 5.1 or higher computer sound card (front, rear, and sub/center) with analog outputs. Onboard sound cards are mostly poor quality, so the Klipsch will not sound as good as if you have a better internal or external sound card (such as Creative's Sound Blaster, e.g., SB1). If you only have a digital surround sound source, such as a TV, Xbox, satellite or cable receiver, then you need a digital to analog decoder. Klipsch made a nice decoder, the DD-5.1. It converts optical and other digital signals to the analog signals your Klipsch ProMedia uses.
