Actually, I am wondering where the subwoofer signal would come from. It will be fed through the existing amp I have along with the left and right channel(?) which is around 40W.
I agree but I don't have the heart to dump it either.
wow! nice to see that somebody picked up on this.
Anyway, i am planning on modifying this to a of 2.1 system based on its amplifier circuit. Problem is how to integrate the circuit from **broken link removed**.
Lastly, I am using speakers of different impedance. Can it be done? I have 2...
Well, I'm putting this to rest now. I just realized that the speaker is mostly for sentimental value anyway since its more than 10 years old. Bought it around '96 or '97. Might continue to use it or probably get some cheap 2.1 system or something.
Thank you all for putting up with me. But...
Well I didn't have a ruler so I just estimated. Also, i would like to ask you to please give constructive advice. I'm no expert so I probably call out some things incorrectly but you don't have to rub it in.
The cone doesn't seem to be damaged. No continuity test yet. Ohmmeter test only?
The woofer is about 3" dia with a big magnet. no markings unfortunately.
The amp ic is a tda1xxx, forgot the last 3 digits. :-)
What makes me wonder is that how come only the left channel gave? the right channel...
i haven't gotten into the amplifier part yet. i'll get on it this weekend. can this tdaxxxx, if it is present, be responsible for the bass problem it exhibited before the other speaker went bad/weak? i'll post again by monday. thanks for all the inputs.
BTW, if bose is bad, which is best/good?
i presumed that an active speaker is a speaker with built-in amplifier and a passive speaker is one that doesn't. but never mind that. my stuff is a usual two speaker system, one holds the amplifier and the other one just plugs in to it. well i plugged the un-amped speaker to another source and...
back to the topic, i isolated the problem to the passive speaker. the cone looks fine and energizes when connected to another source. could the capacitor on the speaker be at fault? wasn't able to check it yet. its a 50V 3.3uf capacitor (pink color if that helps)
bose has poor quality? why the heck does it cost so much? well anyway, back to my problem, i think its more on the amp circuit. but i will check out the cone as well. will post a picture of it in case anyone can identify it.
Hello all!
Anybody willing to guide me in troubleshooting an amplified speaker? Its a bose knock-off named dibo and had a good bass when it was new. Its a 30W speaker with volume, balance, treble and bass knobs. As it aged, the bass became incosistent and makes some scratchy sound while...
