FL louder then FR

ROBSCIX · Apr 7, 2004, 01:23 AM

Hi, I seem to be having a weird volume issue when I use these drivers. My Front Left seems to be 50% louder then my front right. I have to add a mono volume in the DSP pane to balance out the sound to the middle. I have tried everything to get it to normal but for some reason it just seems that it's louder. Now mind you these speakers I have are cheap and I am driving another set in paralell to these using the built in amp in the speakers. I am assuming that the speakers are just shot so I am getting a new 5.1 set, I was wondering if anybody else has had this problem?
thank you in advance....

it may be the speakers… i too have this problem occasionally, ut the problem lies with the connectors on my mixer - RCA - Jack so pushing them in firmly generally fixes the difference… test another pair of speakers to see if that is the problem

Was it always that way before you installed the KX drivers?
As the other poster mentioned, check ALL your connections, both coaxial (patch cables) and speaker leads.
What speakers are you using? Separate amp and speakers or powered plastic speakers for a computer?
If it is a separate amp, check your balance and volume controls. They might be dirty.

I haven't checked yet but I don't think it's the connections. When I pull up the Peak meter the Left is actually putting out more signal then the right. Now When I first installed the drivers. Everything was OK, of course I was messing with settings for the rest of the night, So I am thinking I might of set the left side higher and can't figure out how to drop the level on it without adding a mono volume control in the DSP. Is there anyway to completely reset the DRIVER. Maybe I should just RIP it out and reinstall it New? What do ya think? I am getting new 5.1 speakers so I would like to have the issue fixed before I hook them up....thank you in advance.
