    Cerwin Vega AT15 crossover issue/rebuild

    I've been listening to these speakers again lately, and I feel like maybe the cabinets resonate a little too much...has anyone tried lining the cabs with something like No Rez? I'm thinking about upgrading the crossovers and lining the cabinets with No Rez just to see if I can make these...

    can y'all help me and my tech figure out what's wrong with my sx1250....

    so here's what's going on....and I provided a video link below... I had an issue with the preamp...I know this because I used the pre outputs and power amp inputs to isolate the issue. When I hooked the preouts to a separate amp, the problems persisted. I would get what sounds like radio...

    I finally got around to working on this thing again...I cleaned the hell out of everything earlier this week and let it air out until tonight...I plugged it in, turned the power switch and it came right on...even the speaker protection relay clicked for the first time..I hooked up speakers...

    new to me Kenwood KR6050....turned it on and this is happening??

    I literally just got done cleaning and deoxting the ever-living-sh** out of this thing..especially the power/speaker switch. I'm gonna let it air out for a few days before I turn it on again and if it's working, I'll know it was that switch. It actually look like someone rebuilt the left and...

    new to me Kenwood KR6050....turned it on and this is happening??

    ok..I my as well give it a whirl and see what happens....everything I've been reading revolves around that crappy power/speaker switch....either way, I'm going to have to clean everything anyways...

    new to me Kenwood KR6050....turned it on and this is happening??

    I DID hear that these have issues with the power/speaker switch. Do you think it's worth trying to clean that switch and see what happens, or is it pretty much a broke or not-broke type thing?

    new to me Kenwood KR6050....turned it on and this is happening??

    I figured it was worth posting a video in case it was a common issue with these...I don't know much about them, and I've never seen anything like that before..haha..I'll just take it to my local tech and see what he thinks. They aren't worth much so I don't want to sink a ton of money into it...

    new to me Kenwood KR6050....turned it on and this is happening??

    I didn't bother to hook speakers up to it because 1. I never heard the relay click on and 2. I can only imagine if any sound does come out, it's not gonna be good..haha... the meters are jumping with the flickering lights so I'm guessing it's probably a bad idea to hook speakers up to it...

    new to me Kenwood KR6050....turned it on and this is happening??

    I asked my friends dad to let me know if he ever wants to get rid of this thing 4-5 years ago...well, he finally gave it to me...this is what's happening when I turn it on....any ideas? I'm not really familiar with these but I always loved the look of them. I'd like to get it going. Seems to...

    Cerwin Vega AT15 crossover issue/rebuild

    i realized that after I hit post. I meant woofer, not subwoofer. Haha. But yeah it gets low enough to almost be a sub. Cool. I might upgrade the caps for fun to see if I can notice a difference. It will help me decide whether I’m going to build my own speakers with awesome component or...

    Cerwin Vega AT15 crossover issue/rebuild

    forgive my lack of knowledge, but can you pretty much replace electrolytic and mylar caps with poly caps in any situation? I don't know whether the material maters or if it's just the uF and voltage...I think I might ditch them because it does sound like some unwanted frequency ranges are...

    Cerwin Vega AT15 crossover issue/rebuild

    problem solved..it was the circuit breaker...thank you so much for the help you guys...if you think I should replace the blue electrolytic caps in both speakers I'll do that too...but if there isn't going to be noticeable difference in sound I might let it go for now....
