Where can i find cct diagrams for my Wharfedale SW150 subwoofer? Power light goes on, all connections are fine but internally i can hear it doesn't switch on.

I opened it up one day, couldn't find any obvious fault, closed it up. When i reconnected it to my amp it worked!?! Few days later it again failed to switch on. Now when i say "switch on" i'm referring to that relay switch you can usually hear after the power light goes on. (The auto power on function i'm not using) What could this be? faulty thermal sensor?

SOURCE: Wharfdale PC 10 subwoofer

Some basic trouble shooting is required here. First you need to see if it is a problem from your source or the sub. Try a different source to the sub-woofer and see if it changes the response. If still nothing on the sub, then most likely there is an issue with the amp or driver. Check to see if there is a fuse on the sub, if so, it could be blown. There could also be an issue with the auto switching circuit on the subs amp, in that case, it would need to be repaired in the shop. But before that I would check all of the connections to the sub, and also to the driver in the cabinet. If everything looks good, then put some type of source directly to the woofer to see if it works, if you get sound, then looks like the amp has a problem. Again a repair or replace issue.

SOURCE: Wharfedale 10inch cude subwoofer that has a feedback hum when con

Hiya, try a different input cable (from amp to sub) if you have make sure that is ok.

Failing that if there is an earth in the plug, try to disconnect that (earth loop) - unlikely but hey electronics.... anything possible :)

If still there with new cable, earth off etc, then the Yamaha could have a problem but find that difficult to swallow...

Let me know if helps, see any other possibilty
Best of luck

SOURCE: Can I connect my floorstanders

What 'floorstanders'?

Its internal amp is for its own subwoofer ONLY, but if you use your own amp's full-range speaker-level outputs to feed two chanels entering the sub you can tag the 'floorstanders' onto the sub's speaker terminals as speaker wire extenders. Your amp will be powering the floor units.

I'd keep the sub separate and feed it LFE only if it was mine.

Manual to connect sw8 sub

The SW8 and SW150 have line level and speaker level inputs. It has a line level output, which will not drive speakers without using a separate amp for the signals.

Hi i" ve bought on

This may help. If it's not the exact model you have it will at least get you started as subwoofers are pretty much teh same for connection and operation.

My WHARFEDALE DIAMOND SW150 SUBWOOFER does not work. the light (red) comes on when connected. but no sound. I've tried direct from speaker and from receiver connection. doesn't work. Any advice

I had the exact same thing, no sound at all but light on and heatsink slightly warm. Returned amp module to Wharfedale and it was diagnosed as a fault in the muting circuit and repaired under warranty. Asked for a circuit diagram but they don't give them out while the equipment is still in production.

It lights up but does not produce any sound,thamks

Possible that the fuse has blown or the power amplifier is defective. you will need to remove to check even to check the sub woofer coil for continuity - if the coil has opened up or is damaged.

Wharfdale sw150 subwoofer ticks then pops

It should go into standby mode when you shut the rest of your system down. The led on the back is supposed to be green when in use and red when on standby. I believe yours should have the "auto on" switch on the back. If you are manually shutting the sub off make sure it is the 1st thing you power down. It should not pop then. As much volume as it puts out you could damage the speaker if you do anything to cause a pop. If it pops while watching a movie or with music, check connections. I believe the manual says left input is the recommended one.

Too much bass...low end

Hi, have you tried adjusting the "subwoofer level", and or the "subwoofer cut" controls? Every sub I have ever seen has at least the level control on the back. The "cut or crossover" control determines the frequency at which the sub will start to respond. Additionally, you may need to access the appropriate menu on you reciever and adjust the "low frequency effects" (LFE) output level (assuming you have connected your sub to the reciever's sub output jack.

Hope this helps.
