Power light on but no sound form proficient s12

The power supply is working but it is possible that there is no supply to the SUB WOOFER amplifier. It is important to remove and open the unit to probe and confirm.
It can be failure of the inline fusible due to a faulty output driver.
Finally check the subwoofer using a AA cell.

No I cant get my sub

If there is power to the woofer then a signal input must power the woofer to work. So feed a test signal or a audio siignal from a DVD and if there is no output then the AMPLIFIER section had faults.
Unless the sealed unit is opened it cannot be tested to confirm if the output , the input to the AMP or the power supply has failed.
Check if there is power to the output section to confirm.

Keeps blowing fuses x4 as

Pull the speaker and check the coil with a meter. Should read 8ohms. chances are you have a burnt voice coil. They have a 2 year warranty on subs.

PS8 Subwoofer started buzzing non-stop

with nothing connected and the sub turned on....Most subs buzz when the circuitry starts to fatigue. The last time I heard this ..the repair ended up being one of the two fat capacitors inside the sub. I have a means of testing this,,you may not. I am a repair shop with a bit of experience in component level board repair.

I have the same problem as described by Fufanuer.

I too am looking for the solution, I'm hoping I have the wrong power cord which is sending too much power to the sub, my next attempt will be to just up the AMP on the fuse b.c hey it's broken anyway

It is below the subwoofer A/C plug and you need to pull it out

I need replacement grills for 2 - 6.25

I happen to be in Riverview Fl about 1/2 hour north of you. I just called my local distributor and we would have to special order them. No big deal, it would just take 10 days. They are 40.00 a pair, and are now a composite material that won't "Brownout" on you. I e-mailed Fix Ya's support to get permission to give you my contact info. As soon as I hear from them, I will place another comment.
