dubai2000 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Hi everybody, some time ago I bought a second-hand SW115 sub. Because I have not used my Khorn rig for some time it has not been used a lot. Lately I this has changed when I tried a different amp in that setup - first without sub. Yesterday I thought why not try what it sounds like if the subwoofer is connected - but after having it connected to the amp's speaker outputs (like with other amps before) the sub remains dead quiet - I mean the green led is on, but no sound comes out of the sub. I opened it up to see if perhaps a wire had come loose - either from sub-amp or the bass driver - but that is not the case. So does anybody have any idea what might be the problem? Your ideas will be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Wolfram Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Will it work when you use the RCA inputs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubai2000 Posted August 7, 2017 Author Share Posted August 7, 2017 Unfortunately not - I opened it up again today and noticed that as soon I plug it into the wall, there is a very faint buzzing sound coming from somewhere on the amp module - even if the unit is not powered on.

IMWhizzle Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 The same thing happened to me today! It always has worked (brand new unit from 2016). The sub stopped working, although the green light indicator is on I can't hear anything coming from out the sub. Tried different cables and plugged it in the pre outs, but still can't hear anything.I called my dealer today and it's still in warranty, hopefully I will get my sub back soon. Too spoiled with the sound it makes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubai2000 Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 I have not heard anything from my dealer yet - but I am interested to learn how things develop with your unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMWhizzle Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Just got back my sub with a new amp. The amp was fried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubai2000 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 Still waiting for mine - but I suppose it will be the same. Did they tell you why/how that might have happened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schu Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I am wondering if this could have been used with an external amp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubai2000 Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 I had almost given up - turns out that the repair shop had either forgotten or misplaced my module - anyway, it was returned today - and works. I don't know what was wrong - the person on the phone wouldn't know -well - because it took them such a long time at least I didn't have to pay apart from shipping to them.
