Velodyne CHT-10 Subwoofer Questions & Answers
CHT-10R switching on but no longer producing sound
You will have to open it up and check the wiring. Easy fix is loose terminals. This happens often where all you do is pull the terminal off and very gently squeeze it a little with a pair of pliers. The hard part is finding it in the speaker itself. There are two wires that go from the terminals and go to the center cone of the speaker. Due to the movement of the speaker these wires flex a little with each beat. Over time they become work hardened and break. They may look like they are attached, but they are not making a circuit. One way to check is to take some non-conductive instrument and wiggle the wires. Another way is to take both terminals off the speaker and touch it with a 1.5 volt battery to see if it moves. Make sure you put the wires on the correct way. Good luck.
What is Phasing and how to set it up
he phase control will help the sound waves from your sub get synced up with those coming from your main speakers. If they arrive out of phase, there's the tiniest delay between **** Jagger's voice and Bill Wyman's bass, for instance.
An easy, accurate way of setting the phase control is to reverse the connections on your main speakers (the black wire goes to the red terminal and the red wire to the black terminal). Now play a simple selection, like a jazz instrumental with a good walking bass line, on your system while you're sitting in your listening position. Have a friend dial the phase control on the sub until you hear the least amount of bass. Leave the setting there. Returning your speaker wires to their proper places will now allow you to hear the most bass from your sub.
Clicking noise from sub when in standby mode
Disconnect the input. Does it stop? If yes...
It sounds like it's sensing a signal at its turn-on threshold. Figure out why there's signal present when it shouldn't be there.
Exactly how is it connected to the source? LFE-only or full-range signal?
Low pass crossover
Low-pass crossover
Both sets of inputs sum the left and right channels together and the
resulting signal is passed through an adjustable low-pass crossover before
being amplified. The crossover control allows you to adjust the upper limit
of the subwoofer's frequency response from 40 to 120 Hz. The subwoofer's
response will begin rolling off above the frequency you set this control to.
You should set the crossover frequency to obtain a smooth and seamless
transition from the subwoofer to the main speakers in your system. If your
main speakers are smaller units with limited low frequency output, you
may wish to choose a higher frequency (such as 100-120Hz) than you
would with larger speakers which have greater low frequency output. With
larger speakers, you might start with this control set lower, such as 80Hz.

overheating and powering itself down... will it stay on if you play it quieter.
