ADAM Audio Compact MK3 Active Version - Handbuch (Seite 11)

11 Classic Compact MK3 (Active Version) Manual / english
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:
5.1 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.
a) Check the wiring.
Is the cable defective? Are all cables connected correctly?
b) 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. sub-
woofer) defective?
If the answer to all these questions 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 prob-
ably be another defective device within the signal path.
5.2 Problem: You hear parasitic noises (like humming, buzzing, soughing,
cracking).
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.
