I have problem with R10 type speakers. Its really weird cuz it wont play sound for audio and video files like mp3 or wmp that I have but it makes that windows default sound when that warning message comes up like a quick, high pitched sudden piano key stroke. It also makes that sound that shows with the message saying your download has completed when downloading something from the internet.
I gotta windows XP comp.
Weird thing also is that its very new and worked the first time it was installed, but it stopped working after I tried to change the volume in the control panel. Once I clicked on "adjust the system volume" the settings that show were all faded into gray and couldn't be accessed.
Someone please help!!

Um, that sounds like a sound card drivers problem more than the speakers theirselves. Can you try connecting any other source of audio to the speakers, like a Mp3 player, a walkman, a diskman ? Those portable players have the same audio output connections than a PC's standard sound card, a 1/8 mini stereo plug. If it works fine this way, it's a sound card drivers issue. Now if it's so, what i'd suggest you to do, is to check which sound card you got, and to reinstall or update the drivers for the device. I can help you with that part too, keep me posted on the status. Thanks, cheebster :)

These speakers have a bad reputation because there are scammers out there trying to sell them for more than thier worth cause the unit itself looks like it should be worth a lot ... however i say that to say I have a pair of these speakers I was given too me for free and I’ve been using them for over 5 years and they sound great the average music listener won’t know the difference especially in this ear bud era we live in ... someone mentioned these have no bass ... I personally only have 2 of the 3 speakers wired up ... I never wired up the sub cause I never needed too ... when I turn these speakers up I thump the whole block I live on ... these speakers produce plenty of bass without the sub active ... one day I’ll hook the sub and then I’ll prob find out it doesn’t work lol but if the subwoofers do work! These are good speakers for Someone on a budget who wants big sound and a good looking speaker box .... but if it doesn’t like I said it’s ok cause it produces more than enough bass with out it and I listen to hip hop! Maybe it may not be too great for those who want a more crisp sound but if you’re an 90s analog guy like myself these speakers do the job just don’t get ripped off and pay 100s for it ... I say @ the most they are @least worth $300 for the pair ... especially if the subwoofer works

Toyota Corolla 1997 I've installed kickers in the rear (KS series to match the front)... had those going for a couple of weeks with no problems. Yesterday i went to install the KS400 series in the...

take one of the front speakers out and pull out the head unit and unplug a set of audio wires(front right, front left ect.) and hook it up directly from the radio to the speaker there for bypassing all the cars wires. If it works then there's a problem with the car's wiring(maybe an inline amp). If it doesn't work, then try a known good speaker from somewhere else(home stereo speaker for example) and connect it to the radio, if the speaker works, your radio is fine and there may be a problem with the speakers. If it doesn't work then you have a problem with the head unit.

Can you hear calls on speakerphone? If not there's a problem with that speaker. It's probably best to take it in to your carrier, they should replace it.

I have a sony vgc-rb50 model desktop that had xp i put windows 7 on it and cant here any music or sounds ..

You would need to re-install the audio driver for your sound card but I've check the Sony Website (link below) and their doesn't appear to be any drivers for Windows 7 for your model.

http://esupport.sony.com/perl/swu-list.pl?mdl=VGCRB50

You could try using the Windows XP or Vista Drivers but I expect they won't work.

You only option would be to purchase and Install another Sound Card that. Probably best looking on eBay, but make sure it's Windows 7 compatible.

Please leave feedback.

Cheers

Andy

Wow, general problem here, but the most near your problem could be, power failure, or the Power adapter is bad, or a energy failure at home, time to buy a new adapter.
