Generic problem for all Home Theater Speakers and Subwoofers

Home Theater

Report abuse

My home came with pre-installed speakers for home theater, which are also in each room in the house and outside. For no apparent reason, half the speakers have stopped working. I have checked all the connections (I think), but cannot seem to find the cause of why some are working some are not.

The receiver is a NAD T-761 surround sound receiver; amplifiers are Harmon Kardon PA 4000. The interior speakers are also Harmon Kardon, and the exterior ones are Niles.

There is most likelt a channel not working in either the receiver or amplifier depending upon what equipment you own. Could you update this with a list of the equipment in the system?
Thanks,
Dan

We need to determine whether one of the amps has a problem or if the amp is not being feed a signal to amplify. Can you provide a simple stick diagram or description of what is connected to what? For example, the left pre-amp out from the NAD761 is connected to HK amp #1 left. With that info, I'll give you a process to isolate the problem equipment. Then we can determine how to fix that piece.
