Sp2 full range issues

Post by thomaskvillar » Sun Oct 20, 2019 10:33 pm

Hi Members,

I'm having an issue with one of my sp2's.

Sometimes my enclosure doesn't come on (full range) till I use a speakon plug to connect and fiddle with the bi amp socket and then it comes on.

Do I need to replace my bi amp speakon socket?


Thanks.

It does sound like it's dirty. Look for a product called DeOxit or DeOxit 5. Spray a little in the socket and then work the Speakon in/out, in/out and spray a little more and repeat. I've even sprayed a small amount on the Speakon connector and worked it in. After use a hair dryer on cold and dry everything thoroughly. This may work fine. If it doesn't then you may have to replace the socket on the speaker. I'd try cleaning it first.
