firmly into the correct jacks.
Make sure that a cable connects the output jacks on the audio source to the
input jacks on the FX6021’s subwoofer.
Test the speakers with another audio source.
Check all cables. Make sure they are connected to the “line-out” or “audio-
out” jacks on your audio source device.
Test the speakers using another audio source (e.g., VCR, DVD, portable
CD player, cassette player or FM radio).
Decrease the volume level on your FX6021’s wired controller or the volume
level on your audio source (if possible.)

Disconnect your stereo cable from the audio source. If the loud hum goes
away, lower the volume on the audio source.
Adjust the bass level on the wired controller or remote.
Verify that all cables are connected properly and are making a clear
connection.
Decrease the bass level on the wired controller or remote.
Because the subwoofer IS NOT magnetically shielded, it may cause distortion if
it is placed too close to your monitor/TV. Move the subwoofer so it’s at least 2
feet from your monitor/TV.
Replace the remote battery with a CR2025 or equivalent.
Use a standard Phillips-head screwdriver to tighten the two screws located on
the rear of each set.
