Sky Hits Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Esteemed sages of Heritage Heaven: I haven't written in a long time because I've been enjoying my 1977 La Scalas with no trouble. Until the other day when the left channel midrange seemingly conked out. No sound at all. I swapped the drive witht the right channel and can confirm that it isn't a problem with the driver at all. I checked all of the connections in the AA network, looked for anything loose or clipped, and can't seem to find the culprit. Admittedly, I'm in a little over my head. My friend has a voltmeter I can borrow, but I'm wondering if any of you have advice to offer. Thanks as always! Seth in Chicago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Try loosening and then retightening all the screws on both sides of the crossover terminal strip. Sometimes a bit of corrosion forms under the screws. Bob Crites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Hits Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 I'll give it a shot, thanks Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Hits Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 Well, problem solved! But it wasn't the La Scalas' fault after all. My circa 1980's Sony integrated amp has two pairs of output channels. Apparently there is degradation in channel A left side. I switched to using channel B and have restored the sound. Using an old B&O tester vinyl, I can hear the two channels at just about equal strength. Thanks as always for the advice, Bob. Perhaps it will be useful for another Klipscher down the line. Much appreciated. Seth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
