Troubleshooting

All ADAM products are designed and manufactured to the highest quality
standards. However, if any problems with your speaker occur, we recommend
to proceed as follows:

Problem: The LED shows normal operation (green) but there is either no or
only a distorted audio signal
.

If both (all) speakers are affected, the reason can probably be found within
the signal path. If only one speaker is affected, the problem will probably be
within this speaker.

Check the wiring
Is the cable defective? Are all cables connected correctly?

Check the signal path
Interchange the cables of both loudspeakers. Does the problem change with
one of the cables?
Connect the monitor as directly to the signal source as possible (please mind
the volume!). Is another part of the signal path (e.g. mixer, subwoofer) defec-
tive?

If the answer to all these question is ‘no’, the problem is being caused by the
loudspeaker with the utmost probability.
If the answer to at least one of these questions is ‘yes’, there will probably be
another defective device within the signal path.

Problem: You hear parasitic noises (like humming, buzzing, soughing, crack-
ing).

Please disconnect the signal cables.

If the noises disappear, check the signal path.
If the noises can still be heard, check for other electrical devices close to
the speakers (mobile phones, switching power supplies, etc.). If there is no
interfering device the speaker will probably cause the problem.
