Hi.
I have recently bought a new American Audio mixer. Yesterday evening, I had both speakers working together, however today I bought two XLR to 1/4 jack leads to use, and only one of the speakers will work with it.
However, even after switching them around, so then it goes to a different speaker, it will still come out through the same speaker. However, when my ipod is plugged directly into that speaker, it works no problems asked. It also works, when I have phono's to 1/4 jack leads attached.
Is anybody able to help and possibly tell me why this is working like this?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi mate
Check 1. You swap the connections at one end only (Say the speaker end first and you find no change)
This sounds like the XLR connector on the connector plate of the speaker that is not working has failed or has a bad connection.
Check 2. You swap the connections at one end only (Say the speaker end and the fault swapps).
This sounds like the XLR cable connected to the non working speaker is faulty or the output jack on your mixer is faulty.
Check 3 If your problem swapped in check 2. Swap the connections at the mixer end. If the problem does not swap side it is the cable at fault. If the problem swaps the fault is with the output jack socket on your mixer.
Good luck
