Rick Crockford Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I have a Klipsch SW-112 Subwoofer, bought January 12/12, which has just suddenly and simply stopped working. I have swapped it out with another sub known to be working, just to be sure that it was nothing to do with cabling, etc. The second sub, works fine. There isn't even a power lite “on” on the SW-112.......Not even a hum comes from it. I talked to a local repair depot fairly close to home; they asked if it had a tag on the back that said “Bash”. I checked, and it did. As soon as I told them this, they said that it cannot be repaired. Is this correct? By the way, it is connected to an Onkyo TX NR-1009 Amplifier for use with a large screen TV. The volume control has never been “abused”..... There are only adults at my residence. If you could please get back to me as soon as possible on this, I’d appreciate it greatly.

ZombieWoof Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 did you buy new or used ? If used then you might have to replace the Bash plate amp double check that the wiring recepticals are not damaged ( the RCA inlet & the power cord inlet ) if you are Not getting the power light "On" then the plug is faulty OR it is a complete failure of the amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Crockford Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 It was bought new, but because of a going out of business sale, it was purchased from the liquidator, therefore it is unlikely that it would have had any warranty.

Rick Crockford Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 Is it possible to replace the Bash Plate Amp? Is it not "worth" it? I suspect that this was the concern of the repair company I called. Can the amp itself not be repaired? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivanhurd Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 I'd give Klipsch a call and see if you are lucky enough for it to be under warranty... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch1814 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I went through the same thing with my SW-112 sort of. Contact klipsch directly, I wish I would've went that route vs going back to my dealer. He's ruined me on anything from him. I've since started traveling to Indi for all my klipsch addiction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
