"Sound is scratchy or distorted"

The medic's diagnosis take the front cover off and check the woofer and the tweeter. if the woofers look like this, it's time to replace them at the repair shop.
(choose image for a closer look)
woofer: foam surround crumbled
woofer is damaged

unfortunately, tweeters rarely show visible damage.


check the connections in back. are they secure? tighten the speaker wire or connectors if necessary.

if you've checked the above and you can't find the problem, some component may be loose inside the cabinet, or the problem is more serious. Time for the repair shop.

Prognosis

Many times, repair is as easy as reconnecting plugs and clips inside the cabinet because they've become loose from vibration. other times, the original manufacturer cut costs due to price competition and used inferior or underrated components that have blown during use.

Treatment

Bone up on typical repair costs before you spend your hard-earned cash on repair!

Or, cut your losses now! send your old speakers to us for $40 off a replacement set of AMEs! they're covered by a lifetime warranty because they're designed with parts that last.
