Hi guys my friend has a home theater setup using all LSi series. He has LSi15's as fronts and LSi Center and LSi9's as rears. He is using a B&K Ref 20 preamp and a B&K 125.7 amp to power everything. Well here is the problem he is getting no high frequencies from the LSi15's at all. The Center and the 9's are getting highs fine. What do you think could be the problem i think it is the crossover but not sure.

    Are the bars still on the LSi15's that connect the top and bottom binding posts together? It sounds like they were removed and he has the speaker cable connected to the bottom post on the speaker.

    No the bars weren't on the speakers but that is because they were biamped off his B&K 125.7. I connected the bars and only used one set of speaker cables so they weren't bi amped and they still had no tweeter. So i think he either fried the tweeters or the crossovers.


    Oh and sorry for posting it in two areas i noticed the troubleshooting area after i had already posted in the other forum and figured it would get a better response here. so sorry. if a mod can delete the other thread thanks
