- Q

  If the LED indicator on your GoRave AR is continuously flashing, it could be due to several reasons. The GoRave AR might be operating beyond its specifications, so try lowering the volume or reseating the wireless Audio Sender. You can also try turning the power to the GoRave AR off and then on again. Alternatively, there could be faulty speaker wiring or an overheating issue. In this case, unplug the system and wait for the amplifier to cool down. Correct the cause, then reconnect the power.

  Interrupted or poor audio quality from your GoRave Receiver can occur for several reasons. If audio is connected via the wired auxiliary input, it will take priority over wireless Audio Receivers, increase the master volume on the device with the Audio Sender up to at least 50%. Crackle or static might indicate a connection problem with the Audio Sender; if not using an Aux input, turn the input volume to at least 50%. Unexpected pauses may happen if the Audio Sender is out of range of the Audio Receiver.

  If there is no sound from your GoRave AR5 Audio Receiver, several factors could be at play. The receiver might be trying to connect to a paired Audio Sender, so use the GoRave App to check the pairing. Make sure the Audio Sender is turned on, that audio is playing on the device, and that the volume isn't too low or muted. Also, ensure the device isn't further than 30 feet away. Another device might be interfering with a paired Audio Sender on low volume or mute. The GoRave AR5 Amplifier/Receiver might be looking for a new Audio Sender, so select and insert an Audio Sender into a device and play music. If you have multiple Audio Receivers installed, this can also cause issues. The Audio Receiver may be receiving a signal from another Audio Sender at low volume or mute, stop audio playback f...

  If there is no sound from your GoRave Receiver, several factors could be the cause. Ensure an Audio Sender is properly inserted into a device and playing music. Check that the volume on your device isn't too low or muted; increase it as needed. Make sure the transmitting device is within 30 feet (9.1 meters) of the AR5 Audio Receiver. If another device is transmitting at low volume, disconnect the first Audio Sender and initiate playback with the second. Verify the device with the Audio Sender is turned on and playing audio. If multiple AR5 Audio Receivers are installed, confirm audio is playing from the correct speakers. Also, the Audio Receiver may be receiving a signal from another Audio Sender at low volume or mute, so stop audio playback from the other Audio Sender by disconnecting it...
