  If no LEDs are lit on your Altec Lansing Speakers, it indicates a power issue. Here's what to check: * Ensure the power is turned on by pressing the Power button on the right speaker. * Verify the AC cord is securely connected to the wall outlet and that the power LED on the right satellite is illuminated. If it's not, connect the AC power. * If you're using a surge suppressor, make sure it's switched on. * Test the wall outlet by plugging another device into the same jack to confirm it's functioning correctly.

  If you're not getting sound from your Altec Lansing Speakers, there are several things to check: * Ensure the AC power cord is plugged into the wall outlet and the power button has been pressed so that the green LED is illuminated. * Make sure the volume isn't too low by turning the volume knob clockwise. * Verify the volume level on your computer's sound card (or other audio source) is set to a mid-level. * Confirm the audio cable is properly connected to the audio source, ensuring it's firmly inserted into the correct jacks. * Check that the lime green 3.5 mm stereo cable is connected to the 'line-out' or 'audio-out' jack on your sound card or audio source. * Test the speakers with another audio source (like a CD player) to rule out a problem with your original source.

  If you're hearing a crackling sound from your Altec Lansing Speakers, here's how to troubleshoot it: * Check all cable connections to ensure they are securely plugged into the 'line-out' or 'audio-out' jack on your sound card or audio source, and not the 'speaker-out' jack. * Examine the Windows volume control and decrease the volume if it's set too high. * Test with an alternate audio source (like a Walkman or FM radio) by unplugging the lime green 3.5 mm stereo cable from the original source and plugging it into the headphone jack of the alternate source.

  If the sound from your Altec Lansing Speakers is distorted, consider these possible solutions: * Reduce the volume level, as it may be set too high. * Check the Windows volume control and decrease it if necessary. * The sound source itself might be the issue. Try a different audio source, such as a music CD, as .WAV and .MID files can sometimes be of poor quality and cause distortion.
