How to fix distorted sound on Bose Recording Equipment?
- M
  mitchellstephanieAug 7, 2025
  To address distorted sound on your Bose Recording Equipment, try the following: * Check that the Input Clip indicators are not lit red. If an LED is red, adjust the Max Input Level setting and/or Input Gain to better match the source output level. * If Max Input Level is set to 18 dBu and clipping still occurs, reduce the source Output level by reducing Output Gain from the source or use an inline attenuator device (pad). * If the SP-24 sound processor isn't showing clipping, reduce the Output Gain. * Use the SP-24 Editor software for full control and visibility of Input and Output levels. Adjust for optimal gain staging using the meters. * Verify that the loudspeakers are not overdriven or damaged by the amplifier.

Why does my Bose Recording Equipment sound unnatural?
- D
  Daniel GarrettAug 18, 2025
  If your Bose Recording Equipment sounds unnatural, consider these possible solutions: * Verify that the correct Bose® loudspeaker EQ is selected. * Check that Output connections are wired to the correct loudspeaker channel as selected in a Preset or Custom Scene. * In the SP-24 Editor software, check the Limiter settings. * In the SP-24 Editor software, ensure the output polarity controls (Output Gain block) are set the same for loudspeakers within the same system. * Verify the polarity of the signal chain is correct, including input cabling, output cabling, and amplifier output channels to the loudspeaker.

What to do if Bose Recording Equipment has poor signal to noise performance (hiss)?
- D
  Daniel JohnstonAug 25, 2025
  To improve the signal-to-noise performance (hiss) of your Bose Recording Equipment: * Set the Max Input Level parameter to 18 dBu and ensure the source device level is ideally delivering a nominal 0 dBu signal. * Adjust the Input Gain parameter for each input channel so that the Max Input Level is just under the clip level. * Using the SP-24 Editor software, adjust the Limiter and Output Gain blocks for optimal output levels to match the input signal capabilities of the connected amplifier or powered loudspeaker.

What to do if my Bose Recording Equipment has power but no sound?
- G
  Gabrielle WhiteheadOct 30, 2025
  If your Bose Recording Equipment has power but you're not getting any sound, here's what to check: * Make sure the source device is turned on. * Check the cables from the source to the SP-24 sound processor to ensure they are fully connected and functional. * Verify the cables from the SP-24 sound processor to the amplifier or powered loudspeaker are fully connected and functional. * Confirm the amplifier or powered loudspeaker is on and correctly connected to the loudspeaker. * Verify there is an input signal from the source; the Audio Input signal indicator on the front of the SP-24 sound processor should be green. * If connected to the SP-24 Editor software, ensure all parameters, especially Input/Output Gain blocks, Router blocks, and Mute controls are set correctly. * I...
