The red light ususally illuminates when the speaker is over driven. In your case you probably have a problem with your amp. Maybe it's outputting DC? You could call Vandersteen to see what activates the light, other than too much power, and then give that information to a technician to troubleshoot your amp.
No sound in left channel on red LED on in 2ce's
Hi, I have a VTL 2.5 pre, Belles 150A amp, vandersteen 2ce's, one vandersteen sub, VPI scout.
Yesterday, I was listening at a low volume, and I heard a loud pop. Then, a red LED lit up in the left channel 2ce speaker. There is now no sound. I was worried it was the speaker and wired the right speaker to the left channel on the 150A, and the same thing happened (red LED again, no sound, but no pop this time). Both speakers work fine through the right channel. I also disconnected the VTL preamp and subs from the 150A and same thing happens. It appears to be isolated to the left channel of the 150A.
Any ideas?
thanks in advance!!!
