    What to do if there is no signal on my ELAC AIR-X?
    • J
      James WilliamsAug 17, 2025
      If you are not getting any signal on your ELAC Speakers, there could be several reasons. First, ensure the speakers are properly connected to the mains and the socket is working. Check that the power switch is in the "ON" position. Verify the input connections and try different RCA cables. Also, check the source signal by testing another audio component through the same input. Make sure the volume isn't set to minimum and that mute isn't activated. If using a transmitter, ensure it's set to the same TX ID as the receiver. Finally, confirm that the correct input channel is selected using the remote control.

    Why are my ELAC AIR-X Speakers making a loud hum?
    • C
      Christine SalazarAug 19, 2025
      If your ELAC speakers are producing a loud hum, it is likely due to contact issues in the signal connections, such as RCA connectors or cable extension adapters. To resolve this, carefully inspect all connections. As a precaution against loud noises during troubleshooting, reduce the speaker volume to a low setting. You might also need to adjust the outer rings of the RCA connectors to ensure a secure connection.

    Why is the sound distorted on my ELAC AIR-X Speakers?

      Ashley JonesAug 22, 2025
      If the sound from your ELAC speakers is distorted, especially with devices that have a high output level, adjust the output level of your source to a maximum of 2 Volts. If you're unsure how to do this, it's best to contact the manufacturer's support for assistance.

    What to do if my ELAC AIR-X Speakers are too quiet or distorted?
    • J
      james62Aug 26, 2025
      If the sound from your source is too quiet or distorted even when the level setting is turned up fully, it might be because the volume of the active loudspeaker is set too low. To fix this, turn down the output level from the source to approximately 50%, then increase the volume of the active loudspeaker using the remote control until the sound in the room reaches a comfortable level.

    How to reduce volume that is too high on my ELAC AIR-X Speakers?
    • Z
      zpadillaAug 27, 2025
      If the volume level in the room is too high even when the output level from the source is turned down low, it's likely that the volume of the active loudspeaker is set too high. First, set the volume of the active loudspeaker to its minimum. Then, turn up the output level from the source to approximately 50%. Finally, increase the volume of the active loudspeaker using the remote control until the sound in the room reaches a comfortable level.

    Why is there no stereo sound on my ELAC Speakers?
    • B
      boydalexanderAug 30, 2025
      If the sound isn't in stereo on your ELAC speakers, it's probably because the channel selector switches are set to the same channel on both loudspeakers. To fix this, select the correct channel on each loudspeaker: "L" for the left loudspeaker and "R" for the right loudspeaker.

    Why can I hear the wrong channel on my ELAC AIR-X Speakers?
    • A
      Ann Cook MDSep 2, 2025
      If the right channel can be heard through the left loudspeaker (or vice versa) on your ELAC speakers, the channel selector switch is likely not in the correct position. To resolve this, select the correct channels on all loudspeakers.

    Why is the level too low with analog input on my ELAC Speakers?
    • K
      kimberly51Sep 5, 2025
      If the level is too low when using the analog input on your ELAC speakers, the output level from the source (preamplifier, CD player) may be too low. Check the level setting on the source device and increase it.

    Why is the level too low with digital input on my ELAC AIR-X?
    • N
      Nicholas WilliamsSep 7, 2025
      If the level is too low when using the digital input on your ELAC speakers, a digital volume controller might be active in the source device. Increase the digital output level of your source device.

    Why do my ELAC Speakers have a low hiss?
    • B
      baileycynthiaSep 12, 2025
      If you hear a low hiss from your ELAC speakers, it might be coming from the source. To check if the hiss is internal to the speaker, switch the power switch to "OFF", disconnect all input cables, and then switch the power back "ON" to the normal settings. A soft hiss should be audible only when your ear is close to the loudspeakers, but not from your normal listening position.
