If the power light on this 1200.1 polk amp turns

I have a new Polk PA1200.1 amp, it seems to work fine, but the power light stays amber or orange instead of green, until shutting down, then it turns green, should I be concerned? Thanks

I had an amp that did the same thing your amp should not be doing that i dont know how old it is but mine had internal overload switch in it which kicked on if the amp was getting to hot and in my case i would say it was because of i had the amp bridged to a set of of some 100rms 4ohm speakers very nice speakers but by bridging the amp i was over loading the ohm load to the speakers and that was cause of my amp light staying the color that its was it was an old alpine amp with duo B circuitry but i hope you get your situation with this amp straited out check your contecions and if its bridege make sure the amp itself is not over heating cause that can be a problem you dont want mess with that.

Polk computer speakers work in laptop but not on desktop computer

desktops now a days have more than one plug for the speakers. try playing some music and play which hole works.

if there is a 5.1 or surround on the desktop then most likely the light green jack isnt stereo out but rather unamplified signal. thus when you plug head phones into it the internal amp drives the headphones, but wants the computer to drive the speakers.

try plugging it into the black one... or play pick a hole till it works.

My polk psw404 has no power, I check the fuse at power source

Could be the power supply but the transformer may

amp may need sent in for repair!

No sound comes out of the subwoofer. Sound passes through and the power light is on, but no subwoofer sound. Any ideas? Fuse? Easy fix? Can this subwoofer be replaced? is it still available? Can I buy a...

this may be a dumb question but have you turned up the signal. there should be a dial on the back that you can turn the power up. power light on, signal passing threw, the only other thing it can be is the built in amp itself may be dead.

2nd Basslink, still no power-on. Please help

this is in response to the post below:

I just bot a basslink t and i wired it up and nothing it just keeps blowing the fues in the unit i got mine on ebay2.gif so i dont know if i can use the warranty dose anybody have an ida for me- britter623

I got a used basslink about a month ago and had the exact same prob kept blowing fuses...found out that the voice coil had blown on the infinity...so I had a brand new dvc polk 10 sittin in the closet, I swapped them out, put the polk in the place of the infinity sub, however, the magnet is much larger, hence, dual voice coil, it would rattle sooo much from the passive radiator against the magnet, also could not turn the gain up at all due to the rattle. I got the bright idea to build a "custom fiberglas enclosure for the polk and incorporate the infinity's parts(amp/control) I finished the box finally last night and hooked it up this morning, no power, no lights, no nothing! s@#%, F&@%! ANyone had a prob w/the amp not having the lights turn on, no power??? Hope that helps about your fuse blowing issue.
