What to do if only one Bose speaker plays?
If only one of your Bose speakers is working, begin by checking the balance control on your receiver or amplifier. Also, inspect the wires connected to the speaker that is not producing sound, ensuring they are in good condition and firmly connected.
How to fix Bose 161 when neither plays sound?
If your Bose speakers aren't producing sound, verify the settings on your receiver or amplifier. Consult the owner's guide that came with your receiver or amplifier for instructions on adjusting these settings.
What to do if one Bose speaker still does not play?
To troubleshoot why one of your Bose speakers isn't playing, disconnect the wires from both the speaker and the receiver or amplifier. Then, disconnect the cord from the working speaker and connect it to the non-working speaker. If the speaker still doesn’t play, the issue lies within the speaker itself. If the speaker now plays, continue checking for the source of the problem. Disconnect the same cord from the amplifier or receiver and connect it to the other outputs on the amplifier or receiver. If the speaker plays, the problem is in the original cord that was connected to that speaker. If the speaker does not play, the problem is in that channel of the receiver.
