• A compatible 5.1 surroundsound decoder residing on your computer
I’m hearing clicks, pops,
and abnormal sounds on
my computer.
• This may be caused by connecting the speaker system to your computer through a USB
hub. Disconnect the Companion
®
5 system USB cable from the hub and plug it into a
USB jack on your computer.
Sound from speakers is
not loud enough.
• Increase the volume on your computer or other sound source.
System sounds “tinny,”
too much treble.
• Make sure right (R) and left (L) speakers are on the correct sides of your computer moni-
tor. Check the L and R markings on the speaker cord behind each speaker.
• Make sure Bass Compensation control on the Acoustimass
®
module is not turned fully
counterclockwise.
One satellite speaker
does not play or sounds
distorted.
• Check all connections between the satellite speakers, control pod, sound source and the
Acoustimass module. Make sure all plugs are fully inserted into the jacks on the module.
• Make sure the speaker cord plug on the speaker in question is fully inserted into its jack
on the Acoustimass module.
• To determine if the problem is in the sound source or the Acoustimass module, connect a
different sound source to the control pod. If the Companion 5 speaker system operates
properly, the problem is in the original sound source. If the problem remains, then the
problem is in the Acoustimass module.
• Check balance levels on your sound source.
