  If the power LED on your Bose Media Converter isn't lighting up, here are a few things to check: * Ensure the power switch is turned on. * Verify the power cord is securely connected and not defective. If there is a problem with the power cord, correct it. * See if the circuit breaker for the AC outlet has tripped. If it has, turn off the power switch and reset the circuit breaker. * Also, one of the internal fuses may have blown.

What to do if there is no output from loudspeaker Out L or R on my Bose FreeSpace 6 Media Converter?
- M
  Mario FuentesAug 18, 2025
  If you're not getting any output from the left or right loudspeaker outputs on your Bose Media Converter, it could be due to a couple of reasons: * The power amplifier "no load" protection might have been activated. Make sure the loudspeakers are properly connected. Then, turn the AC power off and back on. * There might be a short in the potentiometer wires going to the remote control. Check for wire whiskers at the connector or in the remote control, or for a defective wire. Repair any shorts found.

Why am I getting feedback during paging from a microphone with my Bose FreeSpace 6?
- F
  fosterdavidAug 27, 2025
  Feedback during paging with your Bose Media Converter can occur for these reasons: * There may be too much gain for the paging signal. Reduce the gain using the Page Source Gain Trim or the Page Source Gain Switch (block 1). * The page mic might be too close to one of the loudspeakers. Try relocating the loudspeaker nearest to the page mic, or move the page mic itself.

Enable the Music Compressor (block 7). * The Music A or B Source Trim may be set too low. Turn the appropriate Music Source Trim control (block 6) to the right until the Music Compressor LED glows green. If the LED turns red, back off the adjustment.

Why do the loudspeakers go silent after a half hour of operation with my Bose FreeSpace 6 Media Converter?
- G
  geoffrey69Sep 8, 2025
  If the loudspeakers go silent after about a half hour of use with your Bose Media Converter, it's likely that the amplifiers are shutting down due to thermal overload. Ensure that the installation allows for sufficient airflow around the system electronics. Correct the installation if there is not enough air flow.

Why is there not enough bass or something funny about the sound in one listening region with my Bose FreeSpace 6?
- M
  Megan LawsonSep 12, 2025
  If you're experiencing a lack of bass or an unusual sound in one listening area with your Bose Media Converter, consider these possibilities: * One or more loudspeakers could be out of phase. Check that all loudspeakers are in phase. * The installation might be a dual mono setup where paging is enabled in one zone but not the other. Relocate one or both loudspeakers to avoid an overlap zone. * At least one loudspeaker in each zone is covering the same listening area and there is bass cancellation and/or comb filtering effects. * Loudspeakers are placed within 3 1/2 feet (1 m) of a wall or walls, causing bass cancellation. * The Bass Control (block 12) may have been turned down. Turn the Bass Control up.
