@gnoworyta,I use the same amp with my D48R and after your thread I am getting a bit worried. Did you try the amp with another set of speakers, if you have them? Did you switch off the complete system, wait for a few minutes (maybe an hour, etc), unplug the cables and connect back everything and try again? I am suggesting based on the good points that Erik is asking you.
Proac Ribbon Tweeters Damaged
Hi all - this is my first submission, so looking forward to your responses...
I own 2.5 year old Proac D48 R speakers, powered by a Parasound Halo A21 amp (about 8 years old). When listening the other day I thought the speakers sounded dull, muddy. It appears both of my ribbon tweeters have gone out and I am at a loss to understand why. The amp is certainly not under powered to cause clipping damage and I never play my unit abnormally loud - maybe 1/4 to 1/3 total volume.
As you can imagine, my repair/driver replacement will not be covered by warranty as this is not considered a manufacturer defect. I am told the tweeters run $399 per.
Worst thing I can do is have these repaired and then have it happen again. HELP!
