LS205EB TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting

Distortion/Knocking

If you believe you hear obvious distortion or knocking sounds, immediately lower the volume level of your receiver. Those sounds often indicate that either the receiver or the speaker is being overdriven and damage can result in playing your source material (Music-CD’s-DVD) at high volumes. You should avoid turning the bass or treble controls fully up or using your "Loudness button" when the volume level also is turned up. This can lead to costly loudspeaker failure.

Distorted or unnatural sound can indicate poor connections or a speaker failure. If only one of your speakers has poor sound quality, check the connections. If that doesn’t fix the problem, try putting each speaker in place of one another . If the sound remains poor on the suspect speaker and the distortion moves to the new position, the speaker has a problem. If the sound is OK, it is probably the receiver or the speaker wiring that is causing the poor sound at the original location.
