Troubleshooting
The Cinema Ribbon Trio loudspeakers 
are designed and built to provide years of 
trou ble-free per for mance. Most prob-
lems that occur can usually be solved 
by checking your setup, or by making 
sure all com po nents are fully op er a tion al. 
The following information will help you 
deal with common problems you may 
ex pe ri ence. If a problem persists, please 
contact your Dealer for assistance.
Poor or no sound 
• 
Check all the connections from the 
loudspeaker to the amplifi er or receiver. 
Swap loudspeakers around, and see 
if the poor sound follows a particular 
loudspeaker.
• 
Check that your amplifi er is not driven 
too hard or is clipping. Even a low-pow-
ered amp driven into clipping can cause 
distortion or damage your loudspeakers.
• 
Many processor/preamps can send 
test tones through all the loudspeakers 
in your system. Use this to adjust the 
volume of each chan nel until they are 
all playing at the same level. Make sure 
that any bass man age ment options are 
set correctly, and any channels using 
the Cinema Ribbon Trios are set to 
"small."
• 
If the system bass is weak only when 
playing surround sources, check that 
your processor is correctly set to decode 
the sur round modes, such as Dolby 
Digital or DTS.
• 
Some DVD discs have a menu that 
allows you to select which soundtrack 
to play. Check that the correct surround 
audio soundtrack is selected. 
• 
Check the Bridge Clips are tight.
