• Leai se leo:
  • Check that the input source is active and sending a signal.
  • Ia mautinoa o uaea leo uma ua sa'o ona fa'afeso'ota'i ma e le'i fa'aleagaina.
  • Verify that the LEVEL controls for the input channels and the MASTER VOL knob are turned up.
  • Confirm that the correct input is selected if applicable (though AIR12 has dedicated inputs).
• Leo fa'asese:
  • Reduce the input LEVEL and MASTER VOL. If the signal/clip indicator is lighting up frequently, the input signal is too hot.
  • Siaki le puna o le leo mo se fa'aletonu.
  • Ensure speaker cables are not damaged.
• Hissing or Noise:
  • Disconnect all inputs. If the hiss persists, the noise may be internal to the speaker.
  • If the hiss disappears, reconnect inputs one by one to identify the noisy source.
  • Ensure proper grounding of all audio equipment to avoid ground loops. Try using a ground lift adapter if necessary, but only as a temporary diagnostic tool and with caution.
  • Lowering input gain and increasing master volume can sometimes reduce noise floor.
• Ova le vevela:
  • Ensure adequate airflow around the loudspeaker. Do not block ventilation ports.
