Weird


I have a pair of GoldenEar Triton 1 speakers, which have built-in subwoofers. Evidently, the right subwoofer lead fell off the speaker some time ago without my knowledge. I’ve been listening for quite a while with only one subwoofer, really enjoying the sound in blissful ignorance. Everything sounded great including pieces with deep bass such as formidable organ recordings.
Today I discovered the plug out of the wall and plugged it back in. The system immediately closed up, became dull, lacking ambiance. I pulled the plug back out. Sound was wonderful. Everything sounded just right, including the bass which was full and rich.

I’m now listening without the right subwoofer for good.

Weird!

Dear @rvpiano  : Looking to your speakers specs I read that the subs are controled by DSP software. Now, due that the subs goes to a deep low bass frequency as 13hz could be that you can help you to optimize your room/speakers quality performance levels at your seat position through and external DSP software/unit that can makes measurements about.

 

Just a possibility to improve what you already have.

 

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,

Unfortunately, the subwoofer only has a wall power connection.  No leads to reverse.

I’m confused. Did a wire fall off your subwoofer or not?

I have the grandfather speakers to your GoldenEar's

the Definitive Technology Mythos ST's that have powered subwoofers also

When l walk by to get a wobbly pop l aways lightly touch the drivers

and woofers of both speakers to make sure everthing is working 

Mine also has seperate volume controls and assuming yours also has the same and more with DSP Double check that everything is set in balance 

Richard, remember when we tried the Ayre AX-7 and it kept going into protection mode? This makes me think your subs may be out of phase.

But, if plugging directly seems to have corrected this, then, please ignore.

Curiousjim,

The power cord fell off the subwoofer.
I mis-spoke calling it a lead.
