Why is there no sound coming from my Electro-Voice EKX-15P Speakers?
- J
  Jenny MillerJul 27, 2025
  If your Electro-Voice speakers produce no sound, there are several possible causes: * **Amplifier Issues:** To check this, connect a working test loudspeaker to the amplifier outputs. If there's still no sound, ensure all electronics are on, the signal routing is correct, the source is active, and the volume is turned up. Correct, repair, or replace components as needed. * **Wiring Problems:** Verify you've connected the correct cables to the amplifier. Play audio at a low level through the amplifier, and connect the test loudspeaker in parallel with the malfunctioning line. If the sound disappears or is very weak, the line likely has a short. Use the test loudspeaker to check each connection/junction until you find the issue and correct it, ensuring proper polarity.

  If your Electro-Voice speakers are emitting constant noise such as buzzing, hissing, or humming, consider these potential causes and solutions: * **Defective Source or Electronic Device:** If the noise persists when no program material is playing, evaluate each component to isolate the problem. A break in the signal path is likely. * **Poor System Grounding or Ground Loop:** Check and correct the system grounding as required. * **Input Gain Knob Position:** Ensure the input gain knob is in the MIC position. Slowly increase the input gain knob level to engage the microphone pre-amp.

What to do if Electro-Voice speaker sound is distorted and the front LED is OFF, LCD screen LIMIT is ON?
- J
  James CantuAug 5, 2025
  If the sound from your Electro-Voice speaker is distorted, the front LED is off, and the LCD screen shows LIMIT is on, it is likely due to excessive input level. Reduce the input level or loudspeaker level knobs to prevent limiting.

What to do if Electro-Voice EKX-15P Speakers have intermittent output with cracking or distortion?
- D
  Daniel JacobsonAug 9, 2025
  If your Electro-Voice speakers experience intermittent output with cracking or distortion, a faulty connection is the likely cause. Check all connections at the amplifier and loudspeakers to ensure they are clean and tight. If the problem persists, check the wiring.

Why is there no sound produced with microphone connected to INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 on my Electro-Voice speaker?
- M
  Michael GonzalesAug 13, 2025
  If no sound is produced when a microphone is connected to INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 on your Electro-Voice speaker, consider the following: * **Phantom Power Requirement:** If the microphone requires phantom power, use a dynamic microphone that does not, or use an external phantom power source. * **Input Gain Knob Position:** Ensure the input gain knob is in the MIC position. Slowly increase the input gain knob level to engage the microphone pre-amp.

How to stop acoustic feedback from Electro-Voice EKX-15P Speakers when using a microphone?
- S
  santiagonicoleAug 18, 2025
  To reduce acoustic feedback from your Electro-Voice speakers when using a microphone, consider the following: * **Incorrect Gain Structure:** Reduce the microphone levels at the mixing console or input source. If the microphone is connected directly to the speaker, reduce the input level on the speaker. Positioning the microphone close to the sound source increases gain-before-feedback. * **MODE Setting:** Change the MODE to LIVE or SPEECH. * **Microphone Position:** Whenever possible, set up the loudspeakers so the microphone is behind them. If using the loudspeaker in a monitor position, aim the loudspeaker to the back of the microphone.
