    Hmmmm......swap the left tweets with the right tweets and report back. Also, check the interconnects and speaker cables for any shorts or bad wires.

    :):) Hey fi switched top tweeters only on each speaker and backed off the treble,all systems seem to be go thanks for the suggestion. I think i had to much treble going to the tweets thats why they were shutting down now I am glad the poly switch was there or I probly would have fried the tweets ,by the way where do you set your bass and treble settings.

    transamz- the comment from doro was meant in jest. We're all friends here :-) (at least, mostly...)

    Anyway. I seem to remember someone else having this identical problem a while back. Let me search around and see what I can find.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    "...this gentlemen is a young guy..."

    Yeah, eat my shorts Doro you old ****. :D

    Transamz, actually he's younger than me. Anyway, he was joking and besides that I know where he lives. IMO, one should keep the treble and bass flat, in fact if you have a direct (bypass) switch use it for even cleaner sound.

    F1 happens to be one of my best friends, and I'm fully aware of what he was trying to do. Good luck.
