Bostin Acoustics Sub Woofer problem

Hootanany

Hi I am having trouble with my Sub Woofer it keeps clicking like its turning it self on and off is this normal.

Richersounds.ie: Dave

Hi Hoot.

Thanks for the post and sorry to hear that you may be having problems.

The sub will turn itself on and off if it's set at the auto switch and if there is a signal going to the sub which then stops. The auto mode is designed to save power by powering on the sub when needed but powering off when not.

Is the sub going on and off while the signal is going to it, ie while the receiver is on and sound is coming from it?

Keep me posted and I'm sure we can get you sorted.

Hootanany

Yes when the signal is sent I think.And only when it is on.

Richersounds.ie: Dave

So do you think the sub is turning on and off while the signal is going to the sub and the sub is turned on ?

If this is the case, then it definately has a fault.

The sub should stay on while there is a signal going to it.

If you are certain that this is the case, then we need to get it looked at it for you.

Keep me posted.

Will I bring it in to the Phililips shop then

Richersounds.ie: Dave

HI Hootanany.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Yes please drop the sub into the Philips Shop and include a little description of the fault along with it.

The Philips shop is closed today 23.10.11 and will reopen tomorrow as normal.

Once the sub is dropped in let us know and we will have it brought to us for investigation/repair.

Any further questions just give me a shout

Hootanany

Thanks will drop it in tomorrow. Will they wrap it up for me.

Richersounds.ie: Dave

Yeah they will wrap it up for you.

However if you use your own packaging then please make sure that it is suitable for transport.

Hootanany

Hi Dave any update on the Woofer.

Hootanany

Bump

Hi Hootanany

I have just had a chat with the lads in Richer - they have received your Boston sub and should have an update to report back to you with soon.

Cheers

I have this same issue Hoot.

Mine tends to switch off when there is hardly any bass coming from what I am watching. If the volume is too low on the AV receiver the sub does not pick up on the signal and thus turns off.

Hootanany

But mine clicks twice on and off

Hootanany

Bump again:(

Hootanany

This is really dragging out can someone please tell me whats going on .:(

Hoot,

apologies - I understood that the guys called you earlier in the week - it's (finally) back in-store now and we will get it either back into The Philips Shop or to hootanany towers at some stage over the weekend ( We will give you a shout over the weekend to arrange...)

Apologies again for the delay..

Hootanany

Watching Tv for 1 hour its clicked 4 times can you call me to get this sorted please

Richersounds.ie: John

Hoot,

I discussed this with Ciarán on Sunday and understood that he had called you and possibly traced the issue to a receiver setting - I'll get back on the case with him in the morning and revert..

Hi Hootanay.

Tried to call you this morning so we can get this sorted for you. I have checked what work was carried out on the sub and the whole amp in the sub was replaced. I have a few questions so we can try and diagnose the root of your problems.

What time would suit you for me to give you a call?

Hootanany

Av guys called this evening checked all connections all working the woofer is clicking more now than it did before can we please get this sorted ASAP have been very paitent

Richersounds.ie: Dave

Hi Hootanany.

Thanks for the post.

We can appreciate that you have been very patient. We have sent the sub away for testing and the service guys could not find a fault. We tested it here and could not find a fault.

We will give you a call shortly to discuss the options as we suspect that it's something local to your system.

Regards


Dave

Hi Hoot.

You'll have 2 missed call from me. The nice telephone lady is telling me that the number that I have for you cannot be reached at this time.

If you want to give me a call on 0044 333 900 0070 or maybe drop me a daytime number where I can contact you. The current number I have for you ends in 390.

Many thanks

Hi Dave
Yes that is the number its on all the time but I dont answer Blocked calls if you can show the number that would be great.

Tha AV guys said the settings on the amp were correct.

Looking forward to hearing from you guys.

Richersounds.ie: Dave

Hi Hoot.

Playing catchup, so sorry for the late post.

I would suggest that if you are certain that the settings are correct and that there is nothing else that is wrong at your side, then I feel the only option that we have is to refund it.

The only issue that I have with this is that I cannot be certain that if you were to go for any other sub, that you won't have the same problem as we can't find a fault with this one.

The number that we call from does come up as a blocked number so if you give us a call on 04890 321332, we'll get your card details and arrange a collection for you.

Many thanks

Just noticed the light at the back of the woofer turns red and then green when it clicks . Do you not have any Techy guys that can sort this out.
