Your TV would need an audio-out for this to work. Not all TVs have this.

Hi, first take out the old fuse. Make a note of ALL the information on it. Then vist either Radioshack, Maplin (UK) or Ebay.
Make sure you ask in store or the supplyer on ebay to make sure it is a "LIKE for Like" exchange ...all except that the new one should not be blown of course :-)

its not broken just turn the cut off frequency to level and the volume of the sub lil bit higher and it should work fine.

Hello
Your burned subwoofer speaker is [16cm] one, magnetically shelded type. If it ahs burned out, before replacing an other speaker, throughly check if there ahs some short to its output circuit. If there is a short, the speaker you replace will also will burn out within seconds after switch ON the set. speaker have a 6Ohm impedence and rated at 60 Watts. Frequency response is 20 to 150Hz. Whe buying one these specifications must be noted. You can open its back cover after unscrewing the fixing screws. Do it very carefully and peacefully. OK.

place it at the corner of the room preferable right near the wall and you will be able to enjoy powerful bass compared to any other position

Yes, you can connect another subwoofer too along with this unit, hook RCA pin in this subwoofer coming from amplifier sub out and there is RA jack line-out, anothersubwoofer can be plugged there. It is mentioned in user manual page-7 and previous expert gave you user manual link to download a copy.
Thanks.

First check out that the power supply has knocked down the voltage to the smaller levels that semiconductors work with say 12 to 25 volts. Look carefully at the main semiconductor. Check that it's got a voltage of this size going to it. If it is an IC, one pin should have it! If the power is working it's way to the main parts. Then I would think about replacing that main semiconductor. If it is an IC whip it out anyway.

they sell these at radioshack, couldn't find it anywhere else.  Here's a link to the item. http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102959

hi, ya , some recievers have its setup where u have to enable the sub out,, check the menu carefully, also the player menu if the sub is on or off, let me know..

Hi bob,
yes I have the active subwoofer book, SA-W305 1998

If you let me have an e-mail address, I will scan and send you copies (8 pages) regards Brian.

P.S. I have been using the unit on its own, just connected to my new tv, and the bass improvment is fantastic.

I had to have the amp TA-VE150 repaired,by having the IC joints resoldered, due to overheating.

Any 6 " subwoofer will work as long it has the same speaker terminals on the back. Look for a non-powered one to save on electricity.

Check eBay for hundreds of them.

troubleshoot the issue: Reset the CD Changer: Turn off the CD player. Press the CLEAR button. Simultaneously, press and hold down the POWER button on the CD player for 60 seconds. If this doesn't resolve the issue, proceed to the next step. Check for Error Messages: If you encounter difficulty playing a disc and receive any of the following error messages, there may be an incorrect setting or a problem with the disc: NO DISC DISC ERROR CD ERROR TOC ERROR Refer to the instructions supplied with your CD player to verify model-specific information and troubleshoot the issue. Internal Component Repair: If the display issue persists, it might be related to an internal component that requires repair.

Troubleshoot this issue. Here are some steps you can follow: Check Speaker Connections: Ensure that the rear surround speakers are properly connected to the Audio/Video (A/V) receiver. If applicable to your model, verify that the A/B speaker selector is set correctly. If the speakers are connected to the A speaker connection, the selector must be set to the A position. Test Tone Operation: Perform a test tone operation to check if the speakers are functioning correctly. Increase the rear speaker volume or adjust the surround speaker settings to the maximum level. Speaker Size Settings: Try selecting a different size (small or large) for the rear surround speakers in the menu. Surround Sound Mode: Verify that the A/V receiver is set to a surround sound mode. For Dolby ProLogic surround sound, ensure that the center-channel mode is set to NORMAL or WIDE. If your source is a DVD or Blu-ray Disc player, check that surround sound is enabled in the player's menu. The audio being received must be multi-channel. Different Surround Sound Mode: Try setting the A/V receiver to a different surround sound mode. Source Content: Verify that the source you are playing is encoded in surround sound. Note that during periods of mainly dialog, most of the sound may come from the center speaker only, with audio coming out of the rear speakers when there is background or ambient noise. Factory Reset: Reset the unit back to factory default settings (consult your operating instructions for model-specific steps). If applicable, follow the steps for calibrating the appropriate settings automatically after connecting the calibration microphone device. Speaker Wires and Replacement: Check and replace the speaker wires if necessary. Consider connecting a different pair of speakers to see if the issue persists. If you've tried these steps and the problem remains unresolved, I recommend seeking professional service.
