These speakers provide really good sound for their price, and it seems they accomplished that by using some cheap components.

It is a known issue that the Powered Speaker Select switch often goes bad, resulting in no audio out of one or both speakers. You should try using some contact cleaner first, but that can end up being just a temporary solution.

This fix makes your selection of Left or Right powered speaker permanent, but apart from the Aux in on the front, it is easy to just plug in your audio cables ‘backwards’ to have the audio come out of the correct speakers if you want to change your setup later.

If you are halfway competent with a soldering iron, this is a quick and easy fix. You’ll need to supply your own wire for this.

This is my first guide, and I didn’t plan on making it when I did the fix, so sorry about the lack of photos and details. Nothing would make me happier than for someone to take this info, fix their own speakers, and put together a better version of this guide while doing so.

Schakel de actieve luidspreker uit, haal de stekker eruit en verwijder de 10 korte kruiskopschroeven aan de achterkant die de omtrek vormen.

Plaats alles zo dat je gemakkelijk toegang hebt tot de onderkant van de printplaat en het achterpaneel aan de rechterkant.

Soldeer twee korte geïsoleerde draden om de verbindingen te overbruggen en je actieve luidspreker naar wens rechts of links aan te sluiten. Het eindresultaat zou eruit moeten zien zoals op de foto (selectie van de rechter actieve luidspreker), maar dan netter, zonder de haastig aangebrachte isolatietape, want jij bent beter in solderen dan ik.
