There is hardly any sound from one rs8 speaker

There could be several reasons why there is hardly any sound from one Monitor Audio Silver RS8 speaker:

1. Connection Issue: Check if the speaker wires are properly connected to both the speaker and the amplifier/receiver. Loose or incorrect wiring can cause sound issues.

2. Amplifier/Receiver Settings: Ensure that the amplifier or AV receiver settings are correct and that the affected speaker is not muted or set to a very low volume.

3. Speaker Damage: Inspect the speaker for any visible damage, such as a torn driver or disconnected internal wiring.

4. Port Blockage: The RS8 has both front and rear ports. If a port is blocked improperly, it could affect sound output.

5. Balance and Output Settings: Check the balance settings on your audio system to ensure the signal is evenly distributed between both speakers.

6. Testing with Another Source: Try connecting the speaker to a different amplifier or audio source to determine if the issue is with the speaker or the original system.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, the speaker may require professional servicing under the warranty.

    Your Silver RS1 Don't be fooled by the size. The most compact loudspeaker of the Silver RS range delivers a sound that's anything but small, rivalling far more costly 'compact monitors' for bass extension, mid-range resolution and precise imaging within a stunningly open soundstage.
