Speaker Repair, Diagnose it yourself

The complaint on this cute little speaker cabinet was it was farting and had no bottom end. I show you how to diagnose it and repair it yourself

That "gave it a wack" was funny! 😂

[@tonyknightsecreto8338]

I have a Gzsinyo karaoke PA speaker but it has no sound I'm not sure how fix it

[@patthesoundguy]

Maybe I can help you trouble shoot it. Hit me up on my Instagram DM same handle @patthesoundguy and if you send me some pictures of the speaker I'll be able to give you an idea where to start

[@doyrayburn2668]

"So I gave it a whack." Im in the right place finally. But why didnt we remove the dc and redo the leads instead?

My box keeps homing and blowing fuse

[@patthesoundguy]

I'm very sorry to hear that 😞 I would start by looking over the circuit boards for something that may be burnt. It's possible that a component has failed, and you can often find it just by looking. Now it may be something you might have to take to a shop but who knows it could just be something you can find and fix yourself

Are you from Minnesota

[@patthesoundguy]

No sorry I'm way over here on the East Coast in Nova Scotia, Canada

I need help repairing my EV SX100A powered speakers. I will donate well if you can give me a video

[@SWEAR2CARE]

Well wtf is the setting on the multimeter...us girls wanna know please

[@patthesoundguy]

That setting on the meter(sorry I wasn't as clear as I should have been) is the OHM setting. That's for checking resistance or continuity. I'm not sure how familar you are with a multimeter. Continuity is the setting to check if somthing makes a complete circuit. There is a coil of wire inside the speaker(again not sure how familiar you are with the inside of a speaker as well) and I was checking to see if it had a break. I really can see where I could improve this video because of your comment. Please check out this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnywaZiGgdqceJY where I repair a similar speaker but the highs went out instead of the lows. And will make a video coming up about the speaker in that link in a couple of weeks that goes more into the use of the meter and what the inside of the speaker looks like because I have to repair the speaker again in the bar and I'm waiting on parts. I apreciate the feedback and also apreciate the sub and I am working to improve my videos with better planning and some better gear. I would love to know what kinds of videos you would like to see from me in the future as well.

What's funny is I just tossed that woofer in the garbage on Monday. Had I known I would have kept it and cut it open to show the insides of it. There is a great idea for a new video. Look out for that one soon.

@@patthesoundguy had you carefully removed the dust cap, chances are good you`d have easily found the break where the faulty lead wire was soldered onto the tail end of the voice coil wire.

[@patthesoundguy]

@@johnb9187 I checked the leads and the coil was itself was open, for a $50 woofer I'm not going spend that much more time where the new woofer is that cheap. It wasn't worth it where that's not my own speaker it belongs to a bar.

[@SWEAR2CARE]

you're good at fixing,, but not so much at teaching,,,thanks any way .

[@patthesoundguy]

With feedback like this I can imporove my videos, thanks so much for the comment.
