AR2AX Question

[AR2AXCHOBO]

Hello,

I recently bought a pair of AR2ax and I am pairing it with the Kenwood KR-6200 receiver.

While I am using the connection with my laptop from Aux 2 cable (since the connection with Aux 1 was not working...), it has always different sound quality and performance somehow. For example, in some song on YouTube, the left speaker doesn't perform the sound fully, and some song all the speakers' sound is not so clear.

In comparison with connecting with the laptop, when I use the FM radio, the right speaker wasn't performing well...

Could someone can define what is the issue? Maybe the wiring connection I did was only from the copper cable not with the Y plug.

Thank you.

Find a source that is clean and clear and sounds correct if you can. Hard to tell what is not working right in that rig.
All you mention is computer, receiver and speakers.

Try swapping speaker wires left to right to see if the bad sound moves...meaning it is not the speaker.

Also try the Tape 1 Play input instead of the Aux 1/2 and see if that helps. That input is the same electrically. If you are missing a channel, it might be a dirty switch, exercise is the first step at trying to fix it. Spray cleaner is next step but that needs cleaner and going inside the unit. Hopefully Tape 1 input (Play) works.

If the difference between left and right speakers is not the same for all sources, the problem is your sources, not the speakers.

If AUX 1 is not working, AUX 2 and FM don't sound right, there may be a problem with the receiver.

Consider whether the selector switch is dirty/corroded.
