No Sound
Sources must be set to stereo or PCM, not bitstream or a surround effect like Dolby or DTS.
Check to see if the MUTE setting has been engaged.
Make sure the correct source has been selected.
Verify that the system is powered up and properly connected.
No Power/No light in the LED:
Verify the main power switch on the amp has been turned on.
Verify that the wall AC outlet is functional.
Check to see the power cord is securely connected.
Cannot connect to Bluetooth
Ensure the Bluetooth input has been selected, signified by a solid blue light.
Confirm the speakers are in pairing mode, signified by a flickering blue light.
On the Bluetooth device, turn the Bluetooth function on and off.
If the device doesn’t find the speakers in pairing mode, turn the speakers off and then on again.
Sound from one speaker only
Verify the speaker wire is securely attached.
Check the interconnects of the attached sources.
Try a different source to see if the issue is common to all sources.
Remote Control Issues
Verify the transparent film separating the battery from the connections has been removed.
Be sure that you are within range (approximately 30ft). Aim the remote at the active speaker.
Replace the battery.
Low Output
Some sources can play louder than others, verify if all sources have the same output.
Sources like phones have their own volume controls. Ensure their volumes are set to higher levels.
See if both speakers are playing.
Distortion, Poor Quality
Verify the polarity of speaker connections. Incorrect connections can cause a lack of bass or image.
Bass and treble setting might be misadjusted, push the reset button on the remote.
Sources must be set to stereo, not a surround effect like Dolby or DTS.
No Subwoofer Output
Verify that the wire is securely connected.
Make sure that the proper input is being used on the subwoofer.
If the subwoofer is on and properly connected, increase its volume.
Poor Turntable output
Determine if you are using the proper Line or Phono selection.
Separate the speakers farther away for the turntable.
Try further isolating the turntable, preferably on a separate shelf.
