Phase-inverted speakers on headphones

I've been using this pair for a long time. But today, when I put the headphones on, the sound in the center wasn't there: the typical sign of phase-inversion. Furthermore, panning the audio to the left or right gets full volume on both speakers at the same time. There is no doubt: both sides are cancelling each other. I've tested using different playback devices: same problem. Changing cables: same problem. So... What can it be? The jack? The cable that goes from one speaker to the other? And more important: how can I fix this? Thanks in advance!!!!!

    I'v got same problem, my AKG's became out of phase. The problem was in WHITE wire into the left ear which got disconnected. The solution is to solder it back. I found this manual from akg site.http://www.akg.com/media/media/download/...

SOURCE: Right speaker is not operating on a set of AKG headphones.

Go in by the part that fits to your ear. You will need to remove the ear pad. Also the foam, you might have to force the foam off, you can glue it back when done. With them gone you should see access screws.

Sound comes through only one speaker at a time.

Is the sound on both channels on a pair of headphones? If it is suspect a faulty headphone socket, especially if the speakers are cut out when the headphone jack is inserted - normally.

Headphone jack not working

Hi,

I find that there is a problem with your headphone speaker.
Try with some other headphone, even if it is not working, then you need to take it to the service center.



Cheers,
Mr.Maduraikaran.

My touch ipod touch is fully charged, worked yesterday fine. Today the sound won't come thru my ear phones, can you help?

it seems like the headphones do not work anymore. Do you have any other headphones that you can use. You could also call the company that you got the headphones from and see if they can repair them or replace them for you. If you bought it from ebay or amazon just find the person you bought it from and ask them if you can send it back for a new pair.

My headphone jack is not working at all. I just purchased it today, the sound card is saying no errors, the sound plays fine out of the speakers and the headphone do work Im using them on my cell now

Take it to the Service center. need to replace the headphone output connector's. these will happen from Moistor,Dirt block or Dry solder in the Laptop Motherboard. best of luck. ( Try, put headphone jack in and out for 20 to 30 times, or check the sound comes out via headphone, when pressing the connected jack.) best of luck

CE 1000 ... Inverting or Non-inverting???

Hi oldschoolrid

The inverting and non inverting is to phase the speakers correctly, particularly for low frequency reproduction. . If say you had the amp driving subs at the back of the room facing say for the example full range speakers at the front of the room, then you would need to invert the signal to prevent phase cancellation occurring. If everything is facing the same way, you need to use the noninverting setup for the bass towers.

am more than happy to answer any other questions you may have about it, just give me a hoy :) If you are still unsure, or have problems, then before you give a rating for this advice, please get back to me and we can try some more things. Thanks for using FixYa, If you consider the advice I have given you as sound, a FixYa rating is a great reward for my efforts to help you. Cheers.
