One speaker ain't working.

Featured Replies

Hi everyone. I need help with my speakers problem.

 

I have two speakers, but one of them isn't working. I think it's the right side, because my computer speakers are placed the opposite way. So the right speaker has a lower volume than the other side. I tried adjusting the computer sound volume, but it's as if the speakers have a mind of their own and adjusting the computer sound volume does not affect the speakers at all. Or maybe it's just iTunes rejecting the sound volume adjustment.

 

So I tried connecting external speakers/earphones to the computer. No difference, one side isn't working. But the first time I used this tactic, it worked, both side was working like normal, playing music like normal. And then I unplugged it and turned on the speakers again, and the speakers were alright. So perhaps it was already alright when I plugged in the external speakers/earphones.

 

I checked the wires and so on, but as far as I know, no one has disturbed the wires.

 

But this speaker problem have surfaced a few times before, this is definitely not the first.

 

Maybe it's time to get new speakers.

 

Or maybe my speakers have souls that hate me.

 

 

Please help!

may be the problems are on the wires, the part that i inside the speakers, may be are partitally twisted, bad adjusted or something.

 

you remember if they fall or got hit some time?

you use to play music very loud?

Well, if it doesn't help with headphones, I'd say the sound slot is wearing down a little bit. This happens on mine currently too, it works sometimes if you twist the headphone jack around a little. It's not serious unless you really want to use the computer for playing music or something, and even then, may as well use the iPod.

i think play music at a considerable volume... and the wires around are congested, but it has always been that way.

 

i did knock my speakers, but after they went bonkers.

i normally use the computer for playing music. yeah, i realised that twisting the attachment of the speakers to the computer works, a little. kind of make a difference in the audio, but not the type of difference i wanted.

Here's what I did, I rechecked the audio volume adjustment (my brother advised me to it) and fiddled with it. Turns out I didn't fiddle with other types of adjustment but just one, so that particular one didn't affect the audio. Since I've tried another type of adjustment (the Wave balance), it's worked. Though I supposed the problem isn't exactly resolved, but so far so good.

 

Thanks for the advice so far! :nice:

I think wave balance is the one that tells you which side the sound comes out from mainly

 

Put it in da middle

if i put it in the middle, one side of the speakers would be louder. oddly.

 

but my possessed speakers have healed. :D

it will go back to dilemma again someday, sometime.

 

thanks for all your advice!
