Troubleshooting
• If one or both SP-1 subwoofers have little or no output:
— Double check your power (AC) and system connections.
— Make sure that the power switch on the rear control panels of both units is set to the
“ON” or “AUTO” position.
— Check that the power light on the front of the SP-1 is lit. If not, check the AC fuse. When
changing the AC main’s power fuse, unplug the power cord first. To access the fuse, use the
appropriate screwdriver to unscrew the cap on the fuse receptacle. If the fuse is blown (the
filament inside the glass tube is burned through), replace it with the same type and value as
is printed on the amplifier panel next to the fuse holder. NEVER INSTALL A LARGER
FUSE THAN THE VALUE INDICATED ON THE AMPLIFIER PANEL. If the fuse blows
again when the subwoofer is powered up, return the unit to your authorized Klipsch dealer
for servicing by qualified personnel. If dealer service is not available, contact Klipsch
customer service for a Return Authorization number before shipping (REQUIRED).

• The SP-1’s powered subwoofer amplifier is protected by a thermal sensor. If the unit is run for
extended periods beyond its designated power rating, the thermal sensor will engage and shut
down the subwoofer. If this occurs, turn the “POWER” switch off, turn down the volume on
your electronics and wait five minutes before restarting the system.
• If you experience a noticeable hum when the SP-1’s subwoofer is connected to your system
(a system that includes video equipment), disconnect the cable television line (if present). If the
hum disappears, consult your Klipsch dealer for a ground isolator for the cable line. If this does
not solve the problem, contact your Klipsch dealer for further advise.
• Regardless of your amplifier’s rated capacity, do not operate the system at the full output (highest
volume): Amplifiers can create extremely high levels of distortion when operated at full output
and can damage your loudspeakers. Most amplifiers are at full power when the volume control is
at or just above the 12 o’clock position.
• Position speaker connection wires so that they do not create a trip hazard.
