My Klipsch cs 500 has no sound. Blue light is on and I have tried every combination on remote to no avail. Any ideas?
There is the panel mounted 4amp fuse, and then there is a circuit mounted 6amp inline fuse as well. Mine blew due to a power surge that blew up other things in my house as well. It’s a bear to get the circuit board screws off, and some green sealant off! Step 1) I’m ordering a panel mounted fuse holder that is the same style as the 4amp fuse holder. Step 2) drill hole in panel, and install fuse holder Step 3) no need to remove old fuse (since its blown) so I’m soldering wires from new fuse holder to the fuse ends on the circuit board
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...
Klipsch sub woofer not working. Has power but no sound.
Check the speaker/s. If found OK; check and replace the damaged component/s at its audio output section circuit board. If needy, replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts. Search the site by type in the "
