Troubleshooting the Acoustic Research AW791 Headphones
|
| What do I do if I don't hear any sound from the Acoustic Research AW791 Headphones? |
- Check that the AC Power Supply is fully inserted into the wall outlet and the barrel connector from the AC Power Supply is firmly connected to AC Input Jack. When the AC Power Supply is properly connected and providing power, the Surround Sound ON/OFF Light and Analog Input Indicator Light should be ON prior to making any selections.
- Check that the headphones are turned "ON" and the red Power Indicator Light is brightly lit.
- Check that the Rechargeable Batteries are firmly seated in the Battery Compartment following the polarity markings in the Battery Compartment.
- Check that the audio source (DVD player, TV, VCR) is turned "ON" and providing sound as it normally should.
- Check that the headphone Volume Control is turned up.
- If the Surround Sound LED is blinking, this indicates that the input is DTS encoded. This product does not decode DTS 5.1 encoded digital signals. Refer to your DVD, Satellite, or other manual to change the audio mode from DTS output to Dolby Digital or PCM output.
