Title: distorted sound from speakers
Post by bronyboy2 on Apr 13^th, 2010, 8:29pm

Hi
Has anybody had this problem before ?
Ths sound from my speakers is distorted but only sometimes ,other times it is OK, this happens on both cd and radio.
My system is the 7000.with the 6cd changer in the boot and the car is the Ultima 2 Ltr. Great car, only 81,000 miles, great condition. Oh I have owned this car for the past 7 years
Hope some one can help...

hi there

which speaker(s)? front or rear?

might be water got to them in the front, although they are water resistant.

Hi
All speakers.
there is no water or dampness anywhere.
Its not all the time, when they work they are perfect.

Hi
When you say the head unit, do you mean the dash unit or the cd changer in the boot.?

Head unit is the dash unit....it may have had it http://undergroundfreakz.com/s/otn/confused/mconfused2.gif

Try this....when it goes distorted, turn the volume right up (20ish) & you may hear it go clear again....I've had the same problem in the past & doing this sorted it out.

....Don't ask me why it worked though, 'cos I have no idea http://smilearchive.com/s/contrib/sarge/TheSmile.gif
