Sub has died overnight

It is a fully integrated system that is powered from the sub which contains the power board, the amplifier and heat sink, plus the processor. you could run one speaker using the onboard sound card.

Stupid question: does the sound still work? it could be the LED just died after continual use (rare, since they last a long time, but not uncommon).
If not... it could be the controlling circuit board died. In which case, unless you have electronics repair experience, it would be probably more worthwhile to just replace the speakers, as pricey a model as it is.

Hi, have you find any solution? I got the same problem. Can you please email me. [email protected]. Thank you

The S750 system is a great sounding one but unfortunatly like many similar systems all the amplifiers and power supplies are housed inside the sub box. This means they suffer badly from heat and vibration problems (they cook themselves or shake themselves apart). I have fixed a few S750 systems in the past but due to their complexity it's not for the faint hearted.

Either you have it configured incorrectly this time around, or the settings are defaulted back to original on your DVR........ adjust your DVR sound properties/settings. and check all wires/connections as well.

I had an extra one but I sold it. According to creative labs they do not sell any replacement parts for the speaker systems. The best suggestion that I can give is to check craigslist and ebay for the control pods.

You can see about getting a new control pod from ebay or craigslist but the problem is more likely inside the subwoofer. Below I have pasted a link to a forum thread about fixing the Gigaworks S750 systems. There is not much information there about control pod problems but at least the people on the thread will help as much as they can. If you are not familiar with electronics then some of the people on the forum thread can help if you are willing to ship the subwoofer box to them.

I could buy your sub if you want the power system in the sub is vary complex and it normaly fails on most peoples systems but i already had a custom amp and know want to use the woofer in my system email me if you interested

There is obviously a problem on the amp board with 3 STA575 amplifiers. It may be that one of the diodes is shorted or one of the capacitors has dried up or shorted. For more information I have posted a link to a forum thread that contains all of the information you would need to fix the Gigaworks S750 system. If the information has not already been posted there then you can ask on there and the people there will point you in the right direction.

Same problem just went out after about 4 years.... weak lifespan for a 500 dollar system
