Treble died on the HK980- adjusting the treble up/down does nothing, sound is muffled. The amp treble died and killed my KEF Q50 tweeters (or maybe the treble crossovers). Tested HK with headphones- but no treble in phones. Tested KEFs on another amplifier- tweeters definately killed by the HK980...Can the HK be repaired?
Probably it can be repaired. I'll caution you that HK customer service is terrible. If I were you I'd replace the KEF tweeters and look for a Marantz amp or receiver and if it needs repair do so. I worked on a friend's HK amp (converted it from 220 to 115 v AC) and wasn't impressed with the sound in the least. There is nothing so sweet and the warm Marantz sound.
You can always call HK at (800) 422-8027. They will tell you their authorized repair locations.

In looking through the service manual for this model, I see a Tone Switch that allows you to bypass the tone circuits, and it may be the one all the way to the left of your front panel. If that's not it, I would get out the owners manual and see what they suggest. I doubt that you actually have an electronic malfunction with your unit.

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.

SOURCE: Harman Kardon Soundsticks I - back of tweeter has come off
I took a screwdriver and pried mine open (at one of the ends, not the center), snapped my tweeter back in place, took model airplane glue and a Q-tip, covered the ridge side (not the grooved side) of the case with just a little line of glue and stuck them back together. Worked perfect.
cheerio.
