Hi Purchased a set of FS2's and have them running off an Denon 3802 and am generally very happy with them. However, every now and then, particularly when either the volume is low or there is little low frequency noise (ie a tv programme) the sub cuts out and the power light goes orange. Likewise when the volume increases or the low frequency noise increases the sub will kick in again and the light will go green. I know someone is going to shout at me but a the moment the speakers all run directly off the amp and the sub's main's power is directly connected to the amp (so it comes on when the amp is switched on, there's no continuous warm-up) Any thoughts would be much appreciated, not happy with the situation at all. Cheers Dan
Has this sub got an Auto On/Off switch? Most subs can be left on all the time, quite safe and no damage is done to the sub, if this sub has an Auto On/Off feature and you are using it, you might be better leaving the sub constantly switched on.
Nope, the FS2 amp has a manual on/off switch (which always remains in the "on" position to save me removing the cover blah, blah, blah)
Has the sub got a Left and Right Line Level Input? If so try a Y Splitter, sub may be having problems detecting a signal when at low volumes.
Sorry to sound daft but the sub is already connected to the amp via an RCA to a specific Sub RCA out on the amp. Are you saying to run one out, split it then reconnect to one at the sub end? Apologies, it;s late... I'm tired D
No - On most subs you have a L/R line level input, if you only have the one then this is not an option. Could be two things, sounds as if the sub needs a bit of volume for it to detect a signal, I had a Yamaha sub just like it it, shouldn't worry don't think it's a problem, or could be a result of how you have it connected, on some of these systems the satellites need to be connected to the sub, if this is the design of this system try connecting as the manual says and see if that cures the problem.
