Hello everyone,
first I apologize to the site staff because I had an older account here with just a few posts but i lost access to that email address completely and could not reset that accounts password.
Anyway here is my question:
I have got some Technics SB-A52 speakers, these are 3 way floor standing speakers with two large woofers, a smaller midrange speaker and a tweeter. I am not a picky audiophile or anything. I have hearing loss and got these for a $20 on the local marketplace because i wanted some louder speakers.
When I use the speakers the volume occasionally drifts a bit, so the volume gets quieter for a bit (maybe 10 to 30 seconds) before it kind of fades back to how it was.
How can i find out if the crossover is damaged? I don't really understand how speaker crossover work but I was curious if that might be the cause of the volume drift issue. I do understand these had a cheap crossover in them. I have no idea how to know if the crossover is blown. I found a few comments online when trying to find info on these speakers that people found the crossovers were blown out and it sounded better after replacing those.
I figured whenever i open them up i will make sure all the wiring is good and replace any questionable or loose wiring.
I know my amp is not faulty because I have a couple amps to test with and the volume drift eventually shows up with either amp I have.
I would be grateful for your advices.
