Center Speaker Won't Work!!

BloodJunky · 11-05-2004, 12:03 PM

Hello everyone.

I have a problem with my speaker setup. I have a sound blaster live 5.1 card. Prolly not the best card. But everything was fine until there was a load screech from my speakers. I think it was feedback from my microphone.

Now the center speaker will not work at all. It does however work when you run the test. Also when i switch the speakers around on the subwoofer they all work except the center channel. Is this somehow setup related or the sound card has died,or speakers.

I need to fix it before half life 2 get's here

Thank you for your help!

I have the same problem with my center speaker. I am using the SB extigy with Logitech's Z-680 speakers. Every so often I end up uninstalling the sound cards drivers and reinstalling them. It worth a shot, usually worked for me, until I somehow blew the center channel. hehe, good excuse for new speakers.
