Detaching the speaker from the QuickSAM™ Bracket
Loosen Bolt “B” (See Figure 9). Press in the Mounting Tab while pulling the speaker away from the mounting surface. Press in Mounting Tab either with the included mounting tool (See Figure 11) or by hand (See Figure 12).

Appendix A: Troubleshooting Table
Problem | Possible Cause(s) | Action | |
|
|
| |
|
| Connect a known working test speaker to the amplifier | |
|
| outputs. If there is no sound, check that all the electronics | |
1. No Sound | Amplifier | are on, the signal routing is correct, the source is active, | |
|
| the volume is turned up, and so on. Correct/repair/replace | |
|
| as necessary. If there is sound, the problem is in the wiring. | |
|
| Verify that you have connected the correct wire pairs to | |
|
| the amplifier. Play something at low level through the | |
|
| amplifier (for example, from a CD player or tuner). | |
|
| Connect the test speaker in parallel with the malfunctioning | |
|
| line. If the sound level has gone or is very weak, the | |
| Wiring | line has a short in it (possibly a severe scrape, pinch, | |
|
| or staple puncture). If the sound level is normal, the | |
|
| wire is open (possibly a cut wire or a missed connection). | |
|
| Using the test speaker, move down the line and | |
|
| test each connection/junction until you find the problem | |
|
| and correct it. Observe proper polarity. | |
|
| When two speakers are connected out of polarity | |

2. Poor Low- | Speakers wired | other acoustically. Carefully observe the wire markings | |
Frequency | or tracers on your speaker wires. Verify that the amplifier | ||
Response | (+) terminal is connected to the positive terminal of the phoenix | ||
| |||
|
| connector and the amplifier | |
|
| negative terminal of the phoenix connector (see Figure 10). | |
|
|
| |
3. Intermittent output |
| Check all connections at amplifier and speakers to | |
such as crackling | Faulty Connection | ensure they are all clean and tight. If the problem persists, | |
or distortion |
| it may be in the amplifier or wiring. See Problem 1 above. | |
4. Constant noise | Defective amplifier | If the noise is present but no program material is | |
playing, the likely cause is the signal chain in the electronics. | |||
such as buzzing, | or other electronic | ||
