Right Speaker No Sound....

[TheDogManiac02]

Hi everyone,
i have a problem with my speakers. This is the speaker:

Speedlink Jugger 2.1
I have it since February 2014.
And it is not the pc, because i tested the Headphones and there was sound from left and right. And i connected my headphones to the speaker aswell and it worked left and right too.....

Well the right speaker works again! But i'll leave this thread open for if the problem returns...


The Speaker is connected to my PC.

Is my speaker broken?!
If anyone can help, pls help!

Well, guess what? The problem returned.... I changed the cables up (so the speaker on the right was on the left) and now the left speaker has no sound.... so it is the subwoofer thing.

Since the input is just RCA in, I would try a different 3.5mm to RCA cable first. If that doesn't work, then swap where the speakers are plugged in to see if it is the speaker or the amp.

If you can get the grill off the speakers, I bet they have a few screws securing the speaker which you should be able to remove easily. Behind that you'll find the connection for the ground and signal for the speaker cable. You can hack apart an RCA cable and test the speaker with it opened up like that.

i will try it but i have no time right now. what i also dont get is, how do you open these speakers? And there is sort of a hole in both speakers and when you look in, you see a metal plate.....

I have that problem currently. For me it has to do with the little thing that plugs into the audio jack. There is a short in the wire or something like that so if you wiggle the cord right where it goes into the piece that plugs into the jack, you can sometimes get it to work again. This isn't necessarily what you have though.

You have to remove the mesh grill in the front to disassemble the speaker. You can't do it from the back. What you are seeing is the driver for the speaker.

but with rca cable, do you mean from the pc to rca or from the speaker itself (the big blocky subwoofer thing) to the right little speaker?

The RCA cables from the speakers are hardwired and can't be easily changed. The first two things you need to do is try the speakers one at a time, in each OUTPUT on the back of the sub/amp. If both speakers work, you need to replace the 3.5mm to RCA cable and see if that fixes it.

After you do that, report back.

but you do know that the left speaker has a white rca, and the right speaker a red rca right?
so can i just change them up?

Did you replace the 3.5mm to RCA cable that connects from your computer to the back of the sub?

No, but I will do it tomorrow. At my place it is 12:42 am so I'm going to sleep now.

Okay, let me know once you try replacing that.

i just found out that that doesnt work.... The Rca cable is connected to the sound leveler, and the sound leveler to my pc.....

Okay, replace the RCA to 3.5mm that plugs in to the leveler. If that doesn't work, bypass the leveler and plug the input on the back of the sub and the 3.5mm into the green port on the back of your computer.

Well, the problem returned, i changed the cables and voila! It is now finally fixed. Thx for your awesome help iknowhowtofixit! You sure do know how to fix it! xD

Glad I could help.

well i am glad that the problem is gone, but now the next one appeared....
Now my right speaker makes a buzzing sound when someone talks on a video....
Take Ashens for example: He says something and the right speaker has a low buzzing sound which gets on my nerves really quickly. Have any idea what this could be?


Update: I narrowed the problem down to the red contact in the subwoofer! If i change the two speakers up, the problem is now on the left and not the right. So if i put the white cable in the red contact the buzzing is in the left speaker and not the right one.

Make sure all of your power cords are away from your audio wires. Usually, you can find which wire is doing it by moving them around and seeing if the buzz changes. If that doesn't help, then you can try a ground loop isolator if you want: https://www.amazon.com/Link-NF103-Reference-Ground-Isolator/dp/B000P0W5IA/ref=sr_1_32?ie=UTF8&qid=1468030319&sr=8-32&keywords=ground+loop+isolator

Also double check that you aren't at max volume on your computer or the speaker system. Make sure any audio enhancements in your drivers are turned off.

the buzz is still there...... what is a ground loop isolator?

But the buzzing is only when someone on a video is talking..... and it is like synchronized with the talking of the Person.....
The voice becomes less clear and it is like you are using really bad headphones.
