If your Sony SRS-XG300 (model XG300) is producing distorted audio or no audio, use this guide to replace the tweeters.
Before using this guide, review the troubleshooting pages to ensure the best solution is replacing the woofers. The speaker driver in most Bluetooth speakers is what produces sound (sometimes referred to simply as the “speaker”). The speaker driver converts electrical signals into sound.
Unlike most speakers, the Sony SRS-XG300 uses an X-Balanced Speaker Unit as the speaker driver. Many individual parts make up the unit, including the woofers. Woofers in the SRS-XG300 speaker system produce low bass frequencies which enhances the overall audio. This makes music have more depth and richness. Woofers work with other parts like tweeters to create a complete and balanced sound.
Faulty woofers often cause noticeable changes to sound quality in a speaker. Users may hear scratchy, distorted, or harsh shrill sounds. In other cases, sound quality may sound fine at low volumes but distort and crackle at higher levels.
