      There might be a couple of reasons why your Samsung Speakers aren't producing sound. First, check if the Mute function is activated. If it is, simply press the Mute button to deactivate it. Also, make sure the volume isn't set to the minimum. If it is, adjust the volume to a comfortable level.
