    Why does my Altec Lansing Subwoofer distort my monitor?
    • R
      Raymond BakerSep 8, 2025
      If your monitor distorts when you place your Altec Lansing Subwoofer on your desk, it's because the Subwoofer is not magnetically shielded. The Subwoofer should be placed at least 3 feet away from your monitor.

      Andre RochaSep 7, 2025
      Radio feedback in your Altec Lansing Speakers can be caused by radio frequency interference. Try moving your speakers to see if the interference goes away. If not, you might need to purchase a stereo cable with a higher percentage of shielding.

      If your Altec Lansing Speakers aren't producing any sound, there are a few things to check: * Ensure the AC line cord from the back of the Subwoofer is plugged into the wall outlet. * Increase the system Master Volume by turning the rotary knob to the right. * Verify the audio cable is correctly connected to the audio source and that the connections are secure on both the subwoofer and the source. Ensure the cables are firmly inserted into the correct jacks. * Confirm that the lime green 3.5 mm stereo jack is connected to the line-out jack of the audio source and is fully inserted.

      If the sound from your Altec Lansing Speakers is distorted: * Reduce the speaker system's master volume level. * Adjust the Windows volume and balance controls to the center, then use the speaker controller to adjust the volume. * Try a different sound source, such as a music CD, as .WAV files are often of poor quality.

    How to stop loud hum from Altec Lansing Subwoofer?
    • D
      daisybrownSep 3, 2025
      If you are experiencing a loud hum from your Altec Lansing Subwoofer, try these solutions: * Move the power cord from the power surge protector (if applicable) and plug it directly into an AC wall outlet. * Check the cables to ensure they are making a good connection. * If disconnecting the stereo cable from the audio source makes the hum disappear, adjust the volume control in your audio source, as you might be overdriving the volume settings on your speaker system.

    Why do my Altec Lansing Speakers make a crackling sound?
    • R
      Rachel SharpAug 31, 2025
      If your Altec Lansing Speakers are making crackling or static noises, here's what you can do: 1. Check that all cables are connected to the line-out or audio-out jack on your sound card or audio source, and not the speaker-out. 2. Ensure the volume control in Windows is not set higher than halfway. 3. If the noise persists, try using an alternate audio source (like a Walkman or FM radio) by plugging the stereo cable into its headphone jack.

      Make sure the gray DIN connector is firmly inserted into the DIN jack on the Subwoofer. Refer to the "Connections" section of your User's Guide for the correct position of the arrow on the DIN plug. It is important to insure the pins are aligned from plug to jack.

    What to do if my Altec Lansing Speaker System has one or both speakers not working?
    • E
      Eric MorrisAug 29, 2025
      First, check the input cable from the speaker to the audio source, ensuring it's connected to the line-out jack (the un-amplified source). Verify all cables are plugged in correctly and have a secure connection. If the issue persists, unplug the cable from the back of the computer and insert the stereo plug into the headphone jack of an alternate source like a Walkman or FM radio and play music. If the speakers then work, adjust your volume and balance controls in your audio source or Windows settings.
