Subwoofer and center box problems with Logitech X530

Hi all, I've bought the Logitech X530 speakerset, however, there is a problem with the center box and subwoofer. The sounds that are supposed to come from the centerbox can be heard faintly from the subwoofer, and the centerbox makes sounds that the sub should. For example when I should hear voices in a game, I don't really hear them, and when I turn the subwoofer volume way up and listen real good, I can hear the sub producing that sound. I think that's because the subwoofer is made for low tones and can't really handle high ones. I've tried to install the sound drivers, but then theres only more trouble, so I've uninstalled them again. I use the onboard sound card from the Nvidia M2N-E SLI motherboard, and that one should be able to handle it correctly. I have connected all the wires like they should. Does anyone know a possible solution? Thank you.

    Lol I forgot that I had posted here, however, this was indeed the solution, there was some option in the configuration to switch the sub/center channel. Thanks anyway :)

    Open the configuration panel, to the top left you see an icon of a headset, 2 speakers, 4 speakers etc. At that part is also a hammer icon. Click on it to access the advanced options, of which "Swap center/subwoofer" is one.

Hi Sainty,

this is just a shot in the dark, but have you attempted to play around with your sound driver's configuration? I'm unfamiliar with the newer Nforce stuff, but try looking around in the sound manager Nvidia uses. It sounds like it's been configured to swap speakers. (As an example, I'm using the realtek audio manager on an asus p5k-vm board myself, and the option shows up as "Swap Center/ Subwoofer Output" in my configuration.)

I don't have that "Swap center/subwoofer" button

Logitech Z5500 5.1 speaker system Hi, Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this problem? there is no sound coming from the subwoofer or the speakers, but when I connect my mp3 player to the pod...

Try pulling the power from the unit for a few minutes, the reconnect. Make sure you've got the surround settings correct. If that doesn't do it, you've likely popped the amp or the amp's power supply in the sub box.

Logitech x530 surround sound speakers sometimes make noise

Hi Nick
As you talk I remember a spair speakers I have a long time ago, brand Creative 5600, has a bad resistor inside the speaker SB, or board, you also check for bad cable at the back or static.
another thing is your volume control, sometimes if you down a few notch you may ...not feel the hit or beep, but check things first.
good luck
